1
A continuous BL was observed in healthy follicles treated with estradiol and FSH.
2
The monoclonal antibodies immunohistochemically reacted with granulosa cells of healthy follicles.
3
These observations indicate that the intact BL present in healthy follicles undergo extensive changes during atresia and ovulation.
4
The healthy follicles, 4-5 mm in diameter, were dissected from the ovaries of gilts, and then granulosa cells were isolated.
