The study of germline stem cell (GSC) niches in Drosophila, commonly known as fruit ... and its absence leads to increased apoptosis in the ovary, highlighting its critical role in niche dynamics ...

Cells navigating in complex microenvironments frequently encounter narrow spaces that physically challenge migration.

A combination of methods, including a new method for tagging genes, demonstrates that the chemosensory co-receptors of Drosophila melanogaster (Orco, IR8a, IR25a, IR76b) are expressed widely and ...

Here, we demonstrate that proper regulation of mitochondrial dynamics is critical for collective migration of Drosophila border cells during oogenesis, and misregulation of fission or fusion results ...

2014). MYC’s role in mitochondrial biogenesis is also conserved in Drosophila, where in the ovary, it stimulates gene expression, including that of many electron transport chain genes required for ...

3 The coelomic mesothelium can evolve into serous (tubal), endometrioid (endometrium), and mucinous (cervix) epithelia of the female genital tract, and the ovarian surface epithelium is a specialised ...

Feb. 5, 2025 — A newly discovered line of communication between body muscle and the pituitary gland may play an unexpected role in female fertility, according to a new study. Researchers found ...

The type of ovarian cyst and the underlying cause are factors. For example, treatment of a chronic condition like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is approached differently than a functional cyst, ...

The authors present new expression analysis software (TEKRABber) to help analyze expression correlations between transposable elements (TEs) and KRAB zinc finger (KRAB-ZNF) genes in experimentaly ...

Credit: X A doctor who worked in Guernsey for three years has admitted to removing the ovaries of two patients at the Princess Elizabeth Hospital without their consent. 'Patient C' received the ...

The number of eggs a woman has decreases throughout her lifetime. People with ovaries have around 1 million to 2 million eggs at birth. That number dips significantly by puberty and continues to ...
