Synergistic Roles of Bone Morphogenetic Protein 15 and Growth Differentiation Factor 9 in Ovarian Function
1 Jun 2001
Abstract excerpt
Knockout mouse technology has been used over the last decade to define the essential roles of ovarian-expressed genes and uncover genetic interactions. In particular, we have used this technology to study the function of multiple members of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily including inhibins, activins, and growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF-9 or Gdf9). Knockout mice lacking GDF-9 are infertile...
