Title Of Article :
From Primary Follicle to Ovulation
Abstract :
Folliculogenesis is a very complex process not clearly understood yet. Contributions of many hormones, growth factors, regulatory proteins and different types of cells make this process more confusing. However, important milestones of understanding female reproductive life are hidden in this process. Investigations on this issue may yield important data which may enable us to improve assisted reproduction techniques or prevent/treat ovarian failure. We aimed to summarize new aspects of this issue and proposed new hypotheses in the light of recent literature.
