Abstract:
Many exciting developments in mammalian reproductive research with far-reaching consequences have occurred in recent years. To highlight the significance of some of these developments, a symposium on the theme of ovarian follicular development and regression was organized, and held at the joint meeting of the American Physiological Society and the Canadian Physiological Society, in Montréal in October 1988. Several leading researchers, from both Canada and the U.S.A., in various aspects of ovarian research, participated in the symposium. The topics of discussion ranged from the role of growth

Abstract:
The mammalian female reproductive lifespan is largely defined by a finite pool of ovarian follicles established around the time of birth. It is now understood that certain synthetic chemical compounds, known as xenobiotics, can cause premature ovarian senescence through the destruction of small ovarian follicles. Although the ovotoxic effects of these chemicals are well documented, the exact molecular mechanisms behind their action are only just becoming understood. Recent evidence suggests that bioactivation of xenobiotics by Phase I detoxifying enzymes may lead to the generation of free oxyg

In a previous report, we showed that follicles isolated from frozen/thawed mouse ovarian tissues reached the mature follicle stage on the 12th day of culture. However, the developmental ability was lower than that of fresh ovarian tissue. The purpose of this study was to define a culture system with some technical modification for preantral follicles isolated from frozen/thawed ovarian tissue and to confirm cell injury. Ovaries obtained from three-week-old female mice were cryopreserved by the rapid freezing method. Preantral follicles isolated from frozen/thawed ovarian tissues were cultured

Abstract. Ovarian follicular development was studied during lactation in rats. At an early stage of lactation (day 7) the ovaries showed only small follicles in agreement with the expected 'follicular quiescence' during lactation. However, at a more advanced stage of lactation (day 14), there were large follicles which were capable of ovulation in response to exogenous gonadotropins. Unilateral ovariectomy early during lactation (day 2) resulted in compensatory follicular development in the remaining ovary. However, doubling of the number of large follicles per ovary had not yet occurred by da

There is currently no cure for infertility in women with a poor ovarian response (POR).

Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH), an RFamide peptide, has been found to inhibit pituitary LH secretion in avian and mammalian species. The gene encoding a putative receptor for GnIH (GnIHR) was recently identified in the chicken and Japanese quail brain and pituitary gland. GnIHR appears to be a seven-transmembrane protein belonging to a family of G-protein-coupled receptors. In the present study, we have characterized the expression of GnIHR mRNA in the chicken ovary and demonstrate that GnIHR may exert an inhibitory effect on ovarian follicular development.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT A key question in elucidating the role of FSH in ovarian function is to determine when during follicular growth the FSH receptor first appears. The aim of this study was to examine the site and time of FSH receptor gene expression during early follicular growth. This study was carried out on ovaries of adult sheep during the luteal and prostaglandin-induced follicular phase of the oestrous cycle and also on ovaries of fetal sheep at 90, 100, 120 and 135 days of gestation (term=day 147). Using reverse transcription-PCR and a set of PCR primers spanning exons 8/9/10, two partial FSH rec

Abstract:
: Cholesterol is an important substrate for the synthesis of ovarian sex hormones and has an important influence on follicular development. The cholesterol in follicular fluid is mainly derived from plasma. High-density lipoprotein (HDL) and lowdensity lipoprotein (LDL) play important roles in ovarian cholesterol transport. The knockout of related receptors in the mammalian HDL and LDL pathways results in the reduction or absence of fertility, leading us to support the importance of cholesterol homeostasis in the ovary. However, little is known about ovarian cholesterol metabolism and the comp

Abstract In humans, the molecular mechanisms underlying ovarian follicle endowment and activation, which are closely related to the control of female reproduction, occurrence of menopause, and related diseases such as premature ovarian failure, are poorly understood. In the current study, we provide several lines of genetic evidence that the cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) inhibitor 1B (commonly known as p27kip1 or p27) controls ovarian development in mice by suppressing follicle endowment and activation, and by promoting follicle death. In p27-deficient (p27−/−) mice, postnatal follicle assembl

Abstract:
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most prevalent endocrine pathology among women in reproductive age. Its main symptoms are oligo or amenorrhea, hyperandrogenism and the presence of ovarian cysts. It is also associated with infertility, obesity and insulin resistance. Mainly due to its heterogeneity, PCOS treatments are directed to manage its symptoms and to prevent associated diseases. The correct formation and regression of blood vessels during each ovarian cycle is indispensable for proper follicular development, ovulation and corpus luteum formation. The importance of these processes

Angiogenesis is required for normal follicular development but the role of gonadotrophins in the control of follicular angiogenesis remains to be elucidated. This study investigated the effects of treatment with GnRH antagonist in vivo on follicular development and angiogenesis in the marmoset. GnRH antagonist was administered on either follicular day 0 or day 5 of the 10-day follicular phase with ovaries collected on day 10. Ovaries from control marmosets were studied at day 5 (mid follicular phase) and day 10 (periovulatory period). Ovaries were fixed, serial sectioned and subjected to morph

The review of the literature is devoted to modern data on the formation of the ovarian reserve of the female sexual organ. The relationship between the size of the ovarian reserve and length of reproductive capacity emphasizes the importance of understanding the regulatory factors and processes that determine its creation. We described ovarian reserve markers and regulators such as oocyte phosphotidylinositol-3-kinase, a stem-cell factor (kit ligand) that promote the survival of follicles during neonatal development, synaptonemic complex (SCP3), which is the marker of the first division of mei

The exposure to endocrine disrupters may affect reproduction. Our hypothesis suggested that neonatal endocrine disrupter exposure affects ovarian ovine development. Female lambs were s.c. exposed from postnatal Day (PND) 1 to PND 14 to environmentally relevant doses of diethylstilbe- strol (DES; 5 μg kg-1, n = 11), bisphenol A (BPA; 50 μg kg-1, n = 11), or vehicle [control (C), n = 14]. On PND 30, the ovaries were weighed and paraffin-embedded. The whole ovaries were sectioned in sets of 4 adjacent 5-μm serial sections taken 200 μm apart.

Ovaries, which provide a place for follicular development and oocyte maturation, are important organs in female mammals. Follicular development is complicated physiological progress mediated by various regulatory factors including microRNAs (miRNAs). To demonstrate the role of miRNAs in follicular development, this study analyzed the expression patterns of miRNAs in granulosa cells through investigating three previous datasets generated by Illumina miRNA deep sequencing.

Abstract. Injection of oxytocin into normal adult cycling mice caused alterations in ovarian histology. Oxytocin was administered early on the day of pro-oestrus and it induced the appearance of large numbers of corpora lutea by late pro-oestrus, suggesting oxytocin stimulated ovulation. When mice were examined very early on the day of normal oestrus the ovarian population of follicles was different in the experimental group from that in the control mice, there being increased numbers of preantral and antral follicles in treated animals.

Follicular loss and tissue degeneration are great challenges in ovarian tissue culture systems. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) secrete a cocktail of growth factors and cytokines which supports adjacent cells and tissues. The aim of the current study was to investigate the impact of human bone marrow (hBM)-MSC, as co-culture cells, on human follicular development in ovarian cortical tissue (OCT) culture. For this purpose, warmed OCT fragments were co-cultured with hBM-MSC for 8 days and compared to monocultured OCT. During the culture period, ovarian follicle survival and development in the OCT w
