Hormonal regulation of the ligand for c-kit in the rat ovary and its effects on spontaneous oocyte meiotic maturation
1 Apr 1996
Abstract excerpt
Kit ligand (KL, c-kit ligand) mRNA was detected in the ovaries of 26-day-old prepubertal rats using in situ hybridization. In antral follicles there was a gradient in the intensity of the hybridization signal across the layers of granulosa cells, with greatest intensity observed in the cumulus granulosa cells enclosing the oocyte, and less signal occurring in the granulosa cells furthest from the oocyte. In...
