Control of antral follicle development and selection in sheep and cattle

Campbell BK , Scaramuzzi RJ , Webb R

The development of antral follicles in sheep and cattle is dependent on FSH, but large antral follicles can shift their gonadotrophic dependence from FSH to LH. The mechanisms that result in the selection of at least one ovulatory follicle from identical follicular cohorts, exposed to the same endocrine environment, still remain to be elucidated. The aim of this research was to extend in vitro results from the rodent to sheep and cattle and, using both in vivo</em...
