Control of Differentiation, Transformation, and Apoptosis in Granulosa Cells by Oncogenes,
Oncoviruses, and Tumor Suppressor Genes* | Endocrine Reviews | Oxford Academic Skip to …

Recent data support a role for apoptosis, under tight regulatory control by bcl-2, oxidative
stress response, tumor suppressor, and CASP gene family members, in mediating …

Ovarian follicular growth and maturation and its control throughout pregnancy have not been
described fully in sheep. Experiment 1 characterized the size and maturation (steroid …

The aim of this review is to summarize the interactions between the oocyte and its sur-
rounding granulosa cells which are involved in the control of oocyte growth or apoptosis as …

In the mouse embryo, significant numbers of primordial germ cells (PGCs) fail to migrate
correctly to the genital ridges early in organogenesis. These usually die in ectopic locations …

The vertebrate ovary is an extremely dynamic organ in which excessive or defective follicles
are rapidly and effectively eliminated early in ontogeny and thereafter continuously …

Hyperthermia or heat stress (HS) occurs when heat dissipation mechanisms are
overwhelmed by external and internal heat production. Hyperthermia negatively affects …

This review addresses the reasons for the lack of progress in the control of superovulation
and highlights the importance of understanding the mechanisms underlying follicular …

The development of a normal ovary during foetal life is essential for the production and
ovulation of a high-quality oocyte in adult life. Early in embryogenesis, the primordial germ …

There is growing evidence that anxiety disorders are associated with impairments of cellular
plasticity and resilience. Paralleling these advances in our understanding of the …
