Enhanced fertility and chill tolerance after cold-induced reproductive arrest in females of temperate species of the Drosophila buzzatii complex
(Company of Biologists, 2017-02)
Long-term exposure to low temperatures during adult maturation might decrease fertility after cold recovery as a consequence of carryover effects on reproductive tissues. This pattern should be more pronounced in tropical ...
Can extracellular vesicles from bovine ovarian follicular fluid modulate the in-vitro oocyte meiosis progression similarly to the CNP-NPR2 system?
(2020-11-01)
C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) and its natriuretic peptide receptors subtype 2 (NPR2) are essential for the maintenance of oocyte meiotic arrest in different species. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) in bovine follicular ...
Excessive ovarian production of nerve growth factor facilitates development of cystic ovarian morphology in mice and is a feature of polycystic ovarian syndrome in humans
(2009)
Although ovarian nerve growth factor (NGF) facilitates follicular development and ovulation, an excess of the neurotrophin in the rodent ovary reduces ovulatory capacity and causes development of precystic follicles. Here ...
Effect of Vitrification of Feline Ovarian Cortex on Follicular and Oocyte Quality and Competence
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-06-01)
Cryopreservation of ovarian cortex has important implications in the preservation of fertility and biodiversity in animal species. Slow freezing of cat ovarian tissue resulted in the preservation of follicular morphology ...

p53 and its role in the ovarian surface epithelium. A review
The ovarian surface epithelium (OSE) is a single layer of cells subject to a high rate of turnover at he site of follicular rupture at ovulation and this results in a higher risk of malignant cell transformation. Findings ...
Synergistic lethality of mifepristone and LY294002 in ovarian cancer cells
(Libertas Academica, 2013-01)
We have previously shown that the antiprogestin and antiglucocorticoid mifepristone inhibits the growth of ovarian cancer cells. In this work, we hypothesized that cellular stress caused by mifepristone is limited to ...
Induction of ovarian growth in Aegla platensis (Crustacea, Aeglidae) by means of neuroregulators incorporated to food
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2008)
?-galactosidase activity as a marker of senescence in primary cultures of the ovarian surface epithelium
?-galactosidase activity reflects the rate of cellular aging in vitro. Such activity was quantified at pH 6 in ovarian epithelial cells from 28 donors without a history of cancer, by the chemoluminiscent method. The cells ...
