Oocyte-somatic cells interactions, lessons from evolution
19 Oct 2012
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Despite the known importance of somatic cells for oocyte developmental competence acquisition, the overall mechanisms underlying the acquisition of full developmental competence are far from being understood, especially in non-mammalian species. The present work aimed at identifying key molecular signals from somatic origin that would be shared by vertebrates. RESULTS: Using a parallel transcriptomic...
