Developmental Changes in Expression of Myeloid Cell Leukemia-1 in Human Germ Cells during Oogenesis and Early Folliculogenesis
1 Jul 2002
Abstract excerpt
The regulation of germ cell number in the developing ovary is central to female reproduction. Members of the Bcl-2 family of proapoptotic and antiapoptotic proteins have been implicated in this process in rodents. We investigated the expression of Mcl-1, Bcl-2, Bax, and BAD at 13-21 gestational wk in the human fetal ovary and of Mcl-1 in the adult ovary. mRNA expression of Mcl-1 and its short form Mcl-1s, Bcl-2,...
