1. Determine the developmental dynamics of primordial follicles in the mouse ovary
Abstract : Ovarian follicles are the basic functional units of the mammalian ovary. Progressive activation of primordial follicles serves as the source of fertilizable ova. READ MORE

2. Molecular pathways mediating the development of female germ cells
Abstract : In mice, primordial germ cells (PGCs) dramatically increase in their number from 200 cells at 9.5 dpc to 10 000 cells at 12.5 dpc with doubling time of 12.6 hours. READ MORE

3. Molecular studies of intra-oocyte phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K) signaling pathway in controlling female fertility
Abstract : The primordial follicle pool is the main source of developing follicles in the ovary. The length of reproductive life and the onset of menopause are governed by the amount of primordial follicles in the ovary. READ MORE

4. Molecular mechanisms of ovarian follicular development and early embryogenesis
Abstract : In the mammalian ovary, the dormant primordial follicles are the source of developing follicles and fertilizable ova for the entire reproductive life. In addition, the duration of fertility of a female is determined by the initial size of her pool of primordial follicles and by the rate of its activation and depletion. READ MORE

5. The functional roles of the intra-oocyte phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling in controlling follicular development in mice
Abstract : The key functions of the mammalian ovary are the production of fertilizable oocytes and thesecretion of steroid hormones. At the time of birth the human ovary is composed of basic unitstermed primordial follicles. Primordial follicles are long-lived structures in the ovary and some ofthem last until the woman reaches menopause. READ MORE
