The Role of Gonadotropic Hormones in Follicular Maturation of the Domestic Hen
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe theme of this thesis is the role of gonadotropins in regulating follicular development and ovulation in the domestic hen, Gallus domesticus. These investigations focused on a role for methylation in the regulation of adenlyly cyclase (AC) activity and progesterone (P) secretion in granulosa cells as well as the role of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) receptors on granulosa cells during follicular maturation.
