Regulators of Ovarian Preantral Follicle Development
Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2015Preantral follicle development has become an increasingly recognized area of study in the last two decades. Factors that regulate the growth survival and differentiation of these small, yet complex structures have been identified. The field of fertility preservation and a need for increased numbers of mature oocytes for stem cell research revealed how ...

In vitro culture of bovine preantral follicles
Animal Reproduction Science, 2000Bovine preantral follicles (40-100 microm diameter at collection) were collected from ovaries of slaughtered cows and cultured in vitro with one of the four treatments: follicle stimulating hormone (FSH; 100 ng/ml) alone; FSH plus epidermal growth factor (EGF; 100 ng/ml); FSH plus insulin-transferrin-selenium (ITS; +1%) or FSH plus hypoxanthine (4 mM ...

Preantral follicle culture and oocyte quality
Reproduction, Fertility and Development, 2017The formation of high-quality oocytes depends on complex stage-specific interactions between the germ cell and the somatic compartment involving endocrine, paracrine, and autocrine regulation. Cooperativity in bidirectional signalling and metabolism in response to factors in the microenvironment drive growth, proliferation, cell cycle regulation ...

In vitro culture methods of preantral follicles
Theriogenology, 2016Folliculogenesis is a highly regulated, dynamic process requiring various autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine factors that need to be reproduced in vitro. The mammalian ovary consists of a finite number of follicles at birth, with the majority in a quiescent state, awaiting recruitment.

In-vivo and in-vitro development of preantral follicles
Theriogenology, 1997Abstract This paper presents the state of the art concerning the in vitro growth and differentiation of preantral follicles, i.e. from the primordial to the antral stage, in mammals. Attention is paid to their normal structure and development, nomenclature, isolation and culture methods, effects of systemic and local compounds on their development ...

In vitro development of sheep preantral follicles.
Biology of reproduction, 1999Preantral ovarian follicles isolated from prepubertal sheep ovaries were individually cultured for 6 days in the presence of increasing doses of FSH (ranging from 0.01 to 1 microg/ml) and under two different oxygen concentrations, 20% and 5% O2. Follicle development was evaluated on the basis of antral cavity formation as well as the presence of ...

Cryopreservation and in vitro culture of caprine preantral follicles
Reproduction, Fertility and Development, 2011Preantral follicles (PFs) form a far larger oocyte reservoir (∼90% of the follicular population) than antral follicles. Several laboratories have focussed efforts on cryopreservation and in vitro culture (IVC) of PFs to obtain large numbers of fertilisable oocytes.

In vitro development of caprine ovarian preantral follicles
Theriogenology, 2000The in vitro growth and developmental pattern of caprine preantral follicles cultured in agar gel was observed. Preantral follicles 50 to 150 microm in diameter were isolated from prepuberal goat ovaries by treatment with collagenase and DNase. The isolated preantral follicles were cultured in agar gel for up to 14 days.

Hormones and Preantral Follicle Growth in Women
Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 1976Studies of follicular morphology in biopsies of human ovarian tissue obtained from women with a syndrome of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism have been reviewed. Follicular maturation was consistent with that seen in ovarian tissues removed at postmortem examination of infants.
