Hormonal control of somatic cell oocyte interactions during ovarian follicle development
27 Aug 2004
Abstract excerpt
In the mammalian ovarian follicle, paracrine signaling between the oocyte and somatic granulosa cells is bidirectional but the structural basis and physiological regulations of communication between gametic and somatic compartments remain unknown. The present experiments were designed to test the hypothesis that follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) regulates the ability of granulosa cells to make connections with...
