| 11. | It is a killer of oocytes in immature ovarian follicles in mice and rats.
|
| 12. | The resulting hMG induces the stimulation of several ovarian follicles.
|
| 13. | Folliculogenesis is the mechanism by which the ovarian follicles mature.
|
| 14. | The remainder die off over time in a continuous process called ovarian follicle atresia.
|
| 15. | The ovarian follicle forms about 16 days prior to the birth of the offspring.
|
| 16. | The embryos actually suckle from ovarian follicles, ingesting nutrients and gases from these internal structures.
|
| 17. | Theca cells are only correlated with developing ovarian follicles.
|
| 18. | Presently, ovarian follicle volumes can be measured rapidly and automatically from three-dimensionally reconstructed ultrasound images.
|
| 19. | But with aging, female mice lose their ovarian follicles, which are eggs plus surrounding support cells.
