Novel function of ovarian growth factors: combined studies by DNA microarray, biochemical and physiological approaches
18 May 2006
Abstract excerpt
Owing to the development of the DNA microarray technique, modulation of gene function can be studied systematically. Considerable attention has been focused on members of the growth factor family to elucidate the main regulators of oocyte maturation and ovarian follicle rupture. Among these growth factors, it was found both in rodents and in humans that amphiregulin (Ar) and epiregulin (Ep) of the epidermal...
