Example sentences for: folliculogenesis

How can you use “folliculogenesis” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

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.
These differences can be found throughout folliculogenesis, beginning during the secondary stage.
In vitro experiments with rat GCs have demonstrated that BMP-4 and -7 inhibit and stimulate FSH-induced progesterone and estradiol production, respectively [ 4 ] . In related studies BMP-6 and BMP-15 were found to block FSH action through inhibiting FSH-dependent adenylate cyclase activity and FSH receptor expression, respectively [ 11 12 ] . The importance of these findings is underscored by the fact that FSH action is obligatory for normal folliculogenesis and female fertility.
During the preantral stages of folliculogenesis, FS mRNA was poorly expressed in the GC.
As folliculogenesis progressed, BMP-2 mRNA expression increased rapidly reaching maximal levels in the GC of secondary follicles.
