Ewes in the restricted-diet group weighed less at slaughter than controls.
Ovaries of control ewes contained more follicles 3 mm or greater in diameter than animals receiving restricted diets; albeit, there was no significant difference in jugular venous concentrations of estradiol-17β.
Results of this study indicate that in underfed ewes p53, Bcl-2, and polymerase β are up-regulated in fetal oogonia containing elevated contents of 8-oxoguanine.
Equally important, other studies have shown that loss-of-function and naturally occurring mutations in BMP ligands and receptors are associated with dysregulation of folliculogenesis and ovulation [ 14 15 16 17 18 19 ] . Of particular interest is the finding that ewes having a mutation in the bmp15 gene in both alleles are infertile whereas the heterozygotes are superfertile [ 16 ] . Thus, the bmp15 gene can control ovulation quota through a dosage-sensitive mechanism.
Increases above controls in immunoreactive 8-oxoguanine, p53, Bcl-2, and polymerase β were detected in germ cells of fetal ovaries from diet-limited ewes.
