Arrest of WNT/β-catenin signaling enables the transition from pluripotent to differentiated germ cells in mouse ovaries
23 Jul 2021
Abstract excerpt
Significance In the mammalian ovary, primordial germ cells maintain a genomic program associated with pluripotency until they stop proliferating, move toward oogenesis, and enter meiosis. The molecular mechanisms that enable primordial germ cells to exit pluripotency and enter meiosis in a timely manner are unclear, and their identification represents a major challenge in reproductive biology because the...
