Progesterona e hormônio folículo-estimulante interagem e promovem a sobrevivência e o desenvolvimento in vitro de folículos pré-antrais caprinos [PDF]
Este trabalho veri_icou os efeitos da progesterona e do hormonio foliculo-estimulante (FSH) na sobrevivencia e no crescimento de foliculos pre-antrais caprinos. Fragmentos de tecido ovariano foram cultivados por 1 ou 7 dias em Meio Essencial Minimo (MEM)

Activin promotes oocyte development in ovine preantral follicles
Activins have been implicated as important regulating factors for many reproductive processes. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of activin A on the development of ovine preantral follicles in vitro.

Androgen stimulates growth of mouse preantral follicles in vitro: Interaction with follicle-stimulating hormone and with growth factors of the TGFβ super family [PDF]
Androgens are essential for the normal function of mature antral follicles but also have a role in the early stages of follicle development. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), the most common cause of anovulatory infertility, is characterized by androgen ...

Ultrastructural and morphometric characterization of buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) ovarian preantral follicles [PDF]
The main objective of the present study was to characterize buffalo preantral ovarian follicles. Parts of ovarian cortex, collected from postpubertal buffalo females that were having estrous cycles at regular intervals, were selected under ...

Morphometric and ultrastructural characterization of Bos indicus preantral follicles [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to characterize the ultrastructure of zebu cow preantral follicles (PAFs). Ovarian cortex samples were processed for light and transmission electron microscopy. Primordial follicles consisted of an oocyte surrounded by one layer of flattened or flattened-cuboidal granulosa cells. The oocyte contained a large and usually

The optimized research of the in vitro culture of preantral follicles in mice [PDF]
AbstractObjectiveEfficiency of preantral follicle culture in vitro is low and is dependent on species, development stage, and follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH) concentration. Here, we optimized the preantral follicle in vitro culture system in mice.MethodsThe primary follicles (PM follicles, 80‐100 μm diameter ) and early secondary follicles (ES ...

Comparative Biometrical and Follicular Study in Pig Ovary
Porcine ovaries are a biological material frequently used in studies that analyze follicular development processes, oocyte maturation in close connection with the stages of the estrus cycle. Ovarian follicles and their degree of development represent the

Androgen production by the ovary is an essential requirement for normal cyclical secretion of estradiol but its physiological role extends to important actions on both preantral and antral follicle development, including promotion of granulosa cell ...
