Induction of Ovarian Primordial Follicle Assembly by Connective Tissue Growth Factor CTGF
24 Sept 2010
Abstract excerpt
Primordial follicle assembly is a process that occurs when oocyte nests break down to form individual primordial follicles. The size of this initial pool of primordial follicles in part determines the reproductive lifespan of the female. Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) was identified as a potential regulatory candidate for this process in a previous microarray analysis of follicle development. The current...
