Expression of growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9), bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15), and BMP receptors in the ovaries of goats

Abstract excerpt

The process of ovarian folliculogenesis is composed of proliferation and differentiation of the constitutive cells in developing follicles. In goats, relatively little information is available on the local factors that regulate this process. We studied the presence and distribution of growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9), bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15), and BMP receptors types 2 (BMPR2), 1A (BMPR1A), and...
