Article Synopsis
- The study introduced a new ultrasound-guided technique to obtain samples from the follicle wall layers and follicular fluid in live mares, helping to overcome previous limitations in studying folliculogenesis.
- It compared the expression of various receptors and proteins in different follicle sizes across two seasonal cycles: the spring transitional anovulatory (SAN) and spring ovulatory (SOV) seasons, revealing significant differences in growth factor and hormonal receptor expression based on follicle size and season.
- The findings suggest that the new biopsy technique is a promising method for advancing research on follicle development and ovulation mechanisms, which could be applicable to other species, including humans.
