Role of autophagy in follicular development and maintenance of primordial follicular pool in the ovary
2021-10-20
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The reproductive life span of the organism mainly depends on follicular development that maintains the primordial follicle pool in the cohort of follicles within the ovary. The total count of primordial follicles decreases with age due to ovulation and follicular atresia. Follicular atresia, a process of ovarian follicles degradation, mainly occurs via apoptosis, but recent studies also favor autophagy ex...
