Bone morphogenetic protein 6 promotes FSH receptor and anti-Müllerian hormone mRNA expression in granulosa cells from hen prehierarchal follicles
12 Apr 2012
Abstract excerpt
A growing body of literature provides evidence of a prominent role for bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) in regulating various stages of ovarian follicle development. Several actions for BMP6 have been previously reported in the hen ovary, yet only within postselection (preovulatory) follicles. The initial hypothesis tested herein is that BMP6 increases FSH receptor (FSHR) mRNA expression within the granulosa...
