ADAM10–Notch signaling governs the recruitment of ovarian pregranulosa cells and controls folliculogenesis in mice
16 Apr 2016
Abstract excerpt
Ovarian follicles are the basic functional units of female reproduction in the mammalian ovary. We show here that the protein a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain 10 (ADAM10), a cell surface sheddase, plays an indispensable role in controlling primordial follicle formation by regulating the recruitment of follicle supporting cells in mice. We demonstrate that suppressing ADAM10 in vitro or deletion of...
