Activation of ADF/cofilin by phosphorylation-regulated Slingshot phosphatase is required for the meiotic spindle assembly in Xenopus laevis oocytes [PDF]

, 2013
We identify Xenopus ADF/cofilin (XAC) and its activator, Slingshot phosphatase (XSSH), as key regulators of actin dynamics essential for spindle microtubule assembly during Xenopus oocyte maturation.

Expression and regulation of estrogen receptor 2 and its coregulators in mouse granulosa cells

The Journal of Reproduction and Development, 2022
The cooperative effects of estrogen and oocyte-derived paracrine factors (ODPFs) play critical roles in the normal development of ovarian follicles; however, the mechanism underlying this cooperation has not been well studied.
