DHX36 regulates antral follicle development and ovulation as a non-OSF maternal factor by maintaining oocyte homeostasis and supporting OSF delivery
Healthy ovarian follicle development and ovulation require coordinated communication between oocytes and surrounding somatic cells. Although oocyte-secreted factors (OSFs), such as GDF-9 and BMP-15, are established regulators of this communication, the non-OSF maternal factors that support OSF delivery and signaling during late-stage follicle development remain poorly understood. Here, using an…
