摘要: The production of functional female gametes is essential for the propagation all vertebrate species. growth oocytes within ovarian follicles and their development to mature eggs have fascinated biologists centuries, scientists long realized importance follicle's somatic cells in nurturing oogenesis delivering oocyte oviduct by ovulation.
