Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Less than 1% of several hundreds of thousand primordial follicles, which include primary oocytes, in livestock ovary leads to ovulation, and the rest to selectively disappear by atresia. Many endocrinologic studies have been performed to reveal the follicular selection, but the follicle selection mechanism has been unknown. We have shown that intracellular signaling pathway of cell death ligand-receptor system that regulates follicle granulosa cell apoptosis is the key to control the follicle selection. In the present project, the factors in this signaling pathway, especially cell death signaling inhibitors, were precisely examined. We indicated that the signal inhibitors are involved in dominant factor to control the follicle selection, and that they are useful as an indicator of oocyte quality estimation.
