Epg5 deficiency leads to primary ovarian insufficiency due to WT1 accumulation in mouse granulosa cells
4 Jul 2022
Abstract excerpt
Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI), also known as premature ovarian failure, is an ovarian defect in humans characterized by the premature depletion of ovarian follicles before the age of 40. However, the mechanisms underlying POI remain largely unknown. Here, we show that knockout of Epg5 (ectopic P-granules autophagy protein 5 homolog (C. elegans)) results in subfertility in female mice, which exhibit a...
