Non-coding RNAs in the Ovarian Follicle [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2017 The mammalian ovarian follicle is the complex reproductive unit comprising germ cell, somatic cells (Cumulus and Granulosa cells), and follicular fluid (FF): paracrine communication among the different cell types through FF ensures the development of a mature oocyte ready for fertilization.

Ovarian reserve and anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) in mothers of dizygotic twins [PDF]
, 2013 This study aimed to explore if natural dizygotic (DZ) twinning is associated with earlier menopause and lower anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) values. We investigated if advanced biological reproductive aging, which can be responsible for the multiple ...

Metabolic Cooperation in the Ovarian Follicle
Physiological Research, 2020 Granulosa cells (GCs) are somatic cells essential for establishing and maintaining bi-directional communication with the oocytes. This connection has a profound importance for the delivery of energy substrates, structural components and ions to the maturing oocyte through gap junctions.

Stepped vitrification technique for human ovarian tissue cryopreservation [PDF]
, 2019 The advantage of stepped vitrification (SV) is avoiding ice crystal nucleation, while decreasing the toxic effects of high cryoprotectant concentrations. We aimed to test this method for human ovarian tissue cryopreservation.

Female reproductive aging is master-planned at the level of ovary.
PLoS ONE, 2014 The ovary receives a finite pool of follicles during fetal life. Atresia remains the major form of follicular expenditure at all stages since development of ovary.

Neonatal exposure to xenoestrogens impairs the ovarian response to gonadotropin treatment in lambs [PDF]
, 2015 Bisphenol A (BPA) and diethylstilbestrol (DES) are xenoestrogens which have been associated with altered effects on reproduction. We hypothesized that neonatal xenoestrogen exposure affects the ovarian functionality in lambs.

Is there a relationship between ovarian reserve and blood groups in infertile patients?
Gynecology Obstetrics & Reproductive Medicine, 2019 Objective: Evaluation of ovarian reserve in infertile patients had become an important concept in assisted reproductive techniques (ART) success work-up. Recent studies reported an association between blood type and ovarian reserve. Therefore, the aim of

Follicular and endocrine dose responses according to anti-Müllerian hormone levels in IVF patients treated with a novel human recombinant FSH (FE 999049) [PDF]
, 2015 Objective: To study the association between serum anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) levels and follicular development and endocrine responses induced by increasing doses (5.2-12.1 mu g/day) of a novel recombinant human FSH (rhFSH, FE 999049) in patients ...

The spatiotemporal expression pattern of the bone morphogenetic protein family in rat ovary cell types during the estrous cycle. [PDF]
, 2003 In the mammalian ovary, great interest in the expression and function of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family has been recently generated from evidence of their critical role in determining folliculogenesis and female fertility.
