Escort-like somatic cells mediate early mouse fetal ovarian development but surface-derived Lgr5+ cells support primordial follicles
2019-11-26
Abstract excerpt
Ovarian murine somatic cells are essential to form first wave medullar follicles and second wave primordial follicles. Using single cell RNA sequencing we characterized the transcriptomes of both somatic and germline ovarian cells during fetal and early neonatal development. Wnt4-expressing somatic cells we term “escort-like cells (ELCs)” interact with incoming germ cells and early developing cysts of both sexes....
