The hormonal and second messenger regulation of plasminogen activator (PA) activities in avian granulosa and theca cells has been documented. However, the physiological role(s) of PAs in the avian ovary remains poorly understood. The present studies

Previous studies have indicated that developing avian granulosa cells collected from follicles 2-3 wk prior to ovulation (e.g. 6-8-mm in diameter) are steroidogenically incompetent, apparently due to a lack of functional cytochrome P450 side-chain cl

We have recently shown that granulosa cells from hen ovarian follicles, collected at a stage of development 2-3 wk prior to ovulation (e.g. 6-8 mm in diameter) are steroidogenically inactive. Therefore, the hypothesis tested in the present studies wa

Previously described models for avian ovarian steroidogenesis, using mature, 25-40-mm preovulatory follicles as the source of tissues, were based on the assumption that interaction of the granulosa layer, as the predominant source of progesterone, wi

In the ovary, greater than 99% of the follicles present at birth are destined to degenerate during life. In humans, less than 400 of the more than 400,000 follicles found at puberty will eventually ovulate whereas the overwhelming majority of follicl

Recent biochemical studies have suggested that apoptotic cell death is the molecular mechanism underlying the degeneration of ovarian follicles during atresia. Using a sensitive autoradiographic method for the detection of DNA fragmentation, we studi

Although atresia of ovarian follicles is of critical importance during preovulatory follicle selection as well as during normal and premature menopause, the mechanisms underlying atresia remain poorly understood. To study molecular events associated

The ligand specificity and biochemical properties of the human (h) FSH receptor are poorly characterized due to the low abundance of these receptors and the limited availability of human tissues. Using a fragment of rat FSH receptor cDNA, we screened
