The IGF family and folliculogenesis
Journal of Reproductive Immunology, 1998The process of ovarian follicular development is a long and arduous one, marked by dramatic proliferation and differentiation of both the somatic and germ cell elements. To a large extent, this explosive agenda is under the control of conventional endocrine principles, involving hormones such as pituitary gonadotropins and ovarian steroids. Importantly,

The Effect of AMH on Folliculogenesis
Reproductive SciencesPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common and frequent disease and always leads to endocrine and metabolic disorders among women of reproductive age. In most PCOS patients, the serum level of anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) is significantly higher than that of normal women of childbearing age.

Folliculogenesis ‐ The Stimulated Way
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1994Summary: The initial techniques of stimulating follicular development in the anovulatory woman involved the use of human pituitary gonadotropin (hPG) and thus replaced the function of the pituitary gland. Despite extreme care with administration of hPG and extensive monitoring to assess the ovarian response, ovarian hyperstimulation and multiple ...

The earliest stages of folliculogenesis in vitro
Reproduction, 2002Abstract In recent years several follicle culture systems have been pioneered in different mammalian species for studying ovarian folliculogenesis and culturing immature oocytes. Applications of these in vitro techniques include fertility preservation for humans, conservation of rare animals and development of oocyte banks for ...

Folliculogenesis in the Primate Ovarian Cycle
Endocrine Reviews, 1981MUCH MORE is known about ovarian function in small mammals, especially laboratory rodents, than about the factors regulating cyclic ovarian function in primates. However, recent results, including our own, have enhanced the understanding of ovarian function in primates, bringing new and significant findings that now justify an assembly of knowledge on ...

Peripheral and local regulators of folliculogenesis
Reproduction, Fertility and Development, 1994The role of the gonadotrophins follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone and the putative local regulators, activin and follistatin, in the control of folliculogenesis is reviewed. An account of early work on the development and application of assays for FSH and inhibin is given, together with a summary of the data on the ovarian ...

Folliculogenesis in Polycystic Ovaries
2008Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the commonest cause of anovulatory infertility. Anovulation in PCOS is characterized by arrested growth of antral follicles. Although arrested antral follicle growth probably reflects the abnormal endocrine environment in PCOS (and, particularly the effect of hyperinsulinemia), there is increasing evidence of ...
