Rat Ovary Follicle Development

Oocytes are initially present only in nests, with few or no intervening cells, (A) and the left half of (C). The circle outlines in (A) indicate the locations of two nests. Follicle assembly results in many of these oocytes undergoing apoptosis with the surviving oocytes developing into primordial follicles, indicated with arrows, (B) and the right half of (C). (A) P-0 ovary. (B) P-0 ovary after culture for 2 days. (D) shows a zero day ovary that has been cultured for ten days and has much smaller nests that contain fewer oocytes, indicated in circle.
