For decades, scientists have thought that female mammals are born with a lifetime supply of oocytes in the ovary, irreversibly destined to decline after birth.

Expression of activin subunits and receptors in the developing human ovary:activin A promotes germ cell survival and proliferation before primordial follicle formation [PDF]
The formation of the essential functional unit of the ovary, the primordial follicle, occurs during fetal life in humans. Factors regulating oogonial proliferation and interaction with somatic cells before primordial follicle formation are largely ...

Abstract During mammalian gametogenesis, the chromatin landscape is especially dynamic. Primordial germ cells (PGCs), the precursors to mature male and female gametes, are a transient and small cell population that undergoes profound epigenetic reprogramming. Our knowledge of this process has come primarily from descriptive studies of

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) have the ability to form aggregates, which are called embryoid bodies (EBs). EBs mimic early embryonic development and are commonly produced for cardiomyogenesis.

Generation of Primordial Germ Cell-like Cells from iPSCs Derived from Turner Syndrome Patients [PDF]
Turner syndrome (TS) is a genetic disorder in females with X Chromosome monosomy associated with highly variable clinical features, including premature primary gonadal failure leading to ovarian dysfunction and infertility.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Testicular development in mice lacking receptors for follicle stimulating hormone and androgen [PDF]
Post-natal testicular development is dependent on gonadotrophin and androgen stimulation. Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) acts through receptors (FSHR) on the Sertoli cell to stimulate spermatogenesis while androgens promote testis growth through ...

Sex-specific isolation and propagation of human premeiotic fetal germ cells and germ cell-like cells
The second trimester of human development is marked by asynchronous gonadal development hampering the isolation of homogenous populations of early and late fetal germ cells (FGCs).
