Follicular growth and kinetics were studied in detail in the ovaries of the Indian mole rat (Bandicota bengalensis) during various stages of the estrous cycle; days 7, 12, 15, 19, and 21 of pregnancy; and day 2 postpartum. The sizes of follicles, oocytes, nuclei, and nucleoli were measured. In all rats, regression coefficients, a, and intercepts, b, were calculated in oocyte/follicle, oocyte nucleus/follicle and oocyte nucleus/oocyte regressions. The oocyte reached its maximum size when the…

Follicular growth and kinetics in the Indian gerbil (Tatera indica) ovary during oestrous cycle
TLDR
The growth of the follicle and oocyte in the Indian gerbil (Tatera indica) was a continuous process and the occurrence of comparatively larger follicles during pro-oestrus and the presence of newly formed corpora lutea at oestrus indicated ovulation in the early Oestrus.
Follicle growth in the ovary of the rabbit after ovulation-inducing application of human chorionic gonadotropin
TLDR
The growth of tertiary follicles, i.e., the proliferation of cells in the stratum granulosum and in the capillary network of the theca interna, after injection of ovulation-inducing human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), was investigated in the rabbit by means of autoradiographic and morphometric methods and suggests that granulosa cells have a certain regulatory function on capillary growth.
Histomorphological changes of the caprine ovary relative to the stages of the estrous cycle
Induction of gonadal toxicity to female rats after chronic exposure to mancozeb.
TLDR
The observed effect of mancozeb on the estrous cycle, follicles and biochemical constituents may be due to imbalance in the hormone or toxic effect.
Movento influences development of granulosa cells and ovarian follicles and FoxO1 and Vnn1 gene expression in BALB/c mice
TLDR
Exposure to movento significantly reduced the number of follicles and increased apoptosis of granulosa cells leading disruption of the reproductive system.

TLDR
Currently, indiscriminate use of persistent and toxic rodenticides to control rodent populations has created serious problems such as resistance and environmental contamination, so it becomes necessary to use ecologically safe and biologically active botanical substances that are metabolized and not passed on to the next trophic level, and that interfere with the reproductive potential particularly growth and differentiation of follicles.

Ovarian morphology and pituitary FSH and LH concentration in the pregnant and lactating hamster.
TLDR
During the second half of pregnancy in the hamster, the corpora lutea enter their final growth phase and there are twice as many vesicular follicles as during the first 8 days of pregnancy, correlate closely with pituitary concentrations of FSH and LH during pregnancy and lactation.
Ovarian follicular development and pituitary FSH and LH content in the pregnant rat.
A quantitative study of follicular development indicates that there is no cyclic activity during pregnancy in the rat comparable to the changes of the estrous cycle. The number of antral follicles is…
Influence of unilateral ovariectomy on follicular development in cycling rats.
TLDR
The method of compensatory ovulation in the rat involved doubling the number of large follicles which ultimately matured during the estrous cycle and resulted from increased proliferation of smaller follicles in the course of the cycle rather than from decreased follicular atresia.
Follicular development in the infant human ovary.
TLDR
The range of follicles and the pattern of oocyte growth in relation to follicle growth found in the ovary was independent of age during childhood and is discussed in the light of current concepts of gonadal and pituitary function during infancy and childhood.
Ovarian changes during pregnancy and pseudopregnancy in the vole, Microtus agrestis.
TLDR
In the vole, Microtus agrestis, there was no significant change in the number of corpora lutea (cl) during either pregnancy or pseudopregnancy, and there was a good correlation between the presence of healthy cl and smears that indicated progesterone secretion.

TLDR
Results of hypophysectomy experiments suggested that endogenous LH is sufficient after 5 or 50-80 IU PMS but is subnormal after 10-35 IU, and as an estimate of the amount of endogenous LH released rats were Hypophysectomized at various times and given various doses of HCG.
Follicular development and induction of ovulation in the pregnant mouse.
TLDR
Injection of 5 IU pregnant mare serum at day 9, followed by HCG at day 12, induced ovulation in all animals and resulted in an average ovulation of 11 eggs, which suggests that the reduced ovulation rate is not due to refractoriness of the ovary but rather to a temporary drop in...
Quantitative aspects of follicular development in the untreated and PMS‐treated cyclic hamster
TLDR
It is concluded that the elevated preovulatory levels of gonadotropins not only induce the ovulation of the mature antral follicles but at the same time recruit the next set of follicles for development during the new cycle.
Quantitative study of follicular development in the ovary of the intact or unilaterally ovariectomized hamster.
TLDR
Analysis of the changes occurring in the population of follicles during the oestrous cycle of the hamster indicates that the follicles destined to ovulate at the next oestrus are determined on the 3rd day of the cycle.
Analysis of superovulation in the adult hamster.
TLDR
These experiments, in conjunction with other observations, suggest that the hamster ovary develops approximately 10 large follicles on Day 1 but has an additional 25 follicles in reserve that can be stimulated if increased amounts of FSH are available.
