Gene expression microarrays have provided many insights into changes in gene expression patterns between different tissue types, developmental stages, and disease states. Analyses of these data focused primarily measuring the relative abundance of tr

Oocyte-derived paracrine factors (ODPFs) and estrogens are both essential for the development and function of ovarian follicles in mammals. Cooperation of these two factors was assessed in vitro using intact cumulus-oocyte complexes, cumulus cells cu

The differentiation and function of cumulus cells depend upon oocyte-derived paracrine factors, but studies on the estrogen receptor knockout mice suggested that estrogen also participates in these processes. This study investigates the possible coor

Mouse oocytes produce members of the transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) superfamily, including bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) and growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9), as well as fibroblast growth factors (FGFs). These growth factors

A novel mutation, repro5, was isolated in a forward genetic screen for infertility mutations induced by ENU mutagenesis. Homozygous mutant mice were phenotypically normal but were infertile. Oocytes from mutant females appeared normal, but were sever

Mammalian oocytes are deficient in their ability to carry out glycolysis. Therefore, the products of glycolysis that are necessary for oocyte development are provided to oocytes by companion cumulus cells. Mouse oocytes secrete paracrine factors that

Preantral granulosa cells (PAGCs) differentiate into cumulus cells following antrum formation. Cumulus cells, but not PAGCs, are competent to undergo expansion. Experiments reported here tested the respective roles of both oocytes and FSH in the tran

Cumulus cells and mural granulosa cells (MGCs) have functionally distinct roles in antral follicles, and comparison of their transcriptomes at a global and systems level can propel future studies on mechanisms underlying their functional diversity. T

The transition of preantral to antral follicles is one of the major steps in follicular development, yet little is known about the molecular and functional changes that occur as preantral granulosa cells differentiate into cumulus cells. The cumulus

Growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) and bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) are oocyte-secreted paralogs of the transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) superfamily. In mammals, these two growth factors play critical roles in folliculogenesis.
