Abstract:Female endocrine homeostasis and reproductive success depend on the number and quality of follicles. The follicle is the basic functional unit within mammalian ovaries. Excessive follicular atresia is responsible for the accelerated ovarian aging process. Therefore, exploring the molecular mechanism of follicle development and atresia is essential for protecting ovarian function. In this study, we interrogate the striking correlation between follicular atresia and wild-type p53-induced phosphatase 1 (WIP1) exp… Show more
