Gap junctions and ovarian folliculogenesis.
Gap junctions are collections of intercellular membrane channels that allow adjacent cells to share small molecules (< 1 kDa). Gap junction channels are composed of connexins, a homologous family of more than 20 proteins. In developing follicles, gap junctions couple the growing oocyte and its surrounding follicle cells into a functional syncytium. This review summarizes evidence on the express...
متن کاملEffect of Human Ovarian Tissue Vitrification/Warming on the Expression of Genes Related to Folliculogenesis
Background: Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is an alternative strategy to preserve the fertility of women predicted to undergo premature ovarian failure. This study was designed to evaluate the expression of folliculogenesis-related genes, including factor in the germline alpha (FIGLA), growth differentiation factor-9 (GDF-9), follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR), and KIT LIGAND after v...
متن کاملEstrogens Augment the Stimulation of Ovarian Aromatase
The effects of estrogens on ovarian aromatase activity were investigated in vitro using granulosa cells from immature hypophysectomized estrogen-primed rats. The cells were cultured for 3 days in an androgen-free medium in the presence of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), with or without the specified estrogen. After washing, the cells were reincubated for 5 h with M androstenedione, and the ...

متن کاملNOBOX is a key FOXL2 partner involved in ovarian folliculogenesis.
Dear Editor, Early ovarian expression of Newborn oogenesis homeobox (NOBOX), a transcription factor belonging to the homeoprotein class, is decisive for the progression of primordial follicles to the primary follicular stage as demonstrated by the sterility of Nobox 2 female mice (Rajkovic et al., 2004). Consequently, the loss of the Nobox gene causes primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) (Rajkov...
