Testicular tumours in dogs are of Sertoli cell, Leydig cell or germinal origin and mixed
tumours are also frequently observed. The cellular components of mixed tumours are …

The development of antral follicles in sheep and cattle is dependent on FSH, but large antral
follicles can shift their gonadotrophic dependence from FSH to LH. The mechanisms that …

The Fourth Edition of Knobil & Neill continues to serve as a reference aid for research, to
provide the historical context to current research, and most importantly as an aid for …

The objective of the present study was to characterize expression of mRNAs encoding FSH
and LH receptors during follicular development and at different stages of the first follicular …

Changes in growth, concentrations of steroids in follicular fluid, and numbers of
gonadotropin receptors in follicles 6 mm or more in diameter were examined 12, 24, 36, 48 …

Management of the ovine oestrous cycle is mainly based on the use of exogenous
hormones to mimic or enhance (progesterone and its analogues) or manipulate …

Recent studies have implicated insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) as an intraovarian
regulator of follicular growth and differentiation. Therefore, we investigated the possibility …

Mechanisms that allow selection of a dominant ovarian follicle from a cohort of growing
follicles are unknown. Large healthy, estrogen-active follicles contain more LH receptors …

In sheep and cattle, recruitment (ie entrance in the acutely gonadotrophin dependent stage),
selection (ie adjustment of the number of recruited follicles to the number of ovulations) …

Studies in cattle assessing changes in number and size of antral follicles, concentrations of
estradiol, androgens and progesterone in serum and follicular fluid, and numbers of …
