BACKGROUND The use of ovarian stimulation, to stimulate a multi-follicular response for
assisted reproduction treatments, may force the production of oocytes from follicles that do …

Controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) is one of the key issues for the successful outcome of
in vitro fertilization (IVF). Although retrieval of multiple oocytes is aimed at in COS, the …

The review discusses new approaches to studying the stages of folliculogenesis and
analyzes the contribution of the major signaling pathways to the processes of intraovarian …

A balance within the immune system is necessary for the proper development of ovarian
follicles. Numerous cytokines were detected in follicular fluid, the role of which in …

Ovarian follicle development in humans is a lengthy process that takes several months.

Ovarian follicles develop through several distinct phases during fetal and postnatal periods
and they release their matured ova upon puberty. A finite number of primordial follicles form …

An equilibrium needs to be established by the cellular and acellular components of the
ovarian follicle if developmental competence is to be acquired by the oocyte. Both cumulus …
