Smad3 Is Required for Normal Follicular Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Responsiveness in the Mouse1 [PDF]

open access: yesBiology of Reproduction, 2009
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is the major regulator of folliculogenesis, but other factors modulate its action, including members of the transforming growth factor (TGF) beta family. The intersection of signal transduction pathways that integrate the follicular response to FSH remains to be elucidated. Herein, we investigated the role of Smad3, a

Identification of Lipids and Cytokines in Plasma and Follicular Fluid before and after Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Stimulation as Potential Markers for Follicular Maturation in Cattle

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
The process of follicle maturation leading to ovulation is a key milestone in female fertility. It is known that circulating lipids and cytokines play a role in the follicle’s ability to go through follicular maturation and the ovulatory processes. However, the specific mechanisms are not well understood.
