| Cat. No. : |
GDF9-223H |
| Description : |
Growth/differentiation factor 9 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GDF9 gene. Growth factors synthesized by ovarian somatic cells directly affect oocyte growth and function. Growth differentiation factor-9 (GDF9) is expressed in oocytes and is thought to be required for ovarian folliculogenesis. GDF9 is a member of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGFβ) superfamily. GDF9 plays an important role in the development of primary follicles in the ovary. It has a critical role in granulosa cell and theca cell growth, as well as in differentiation and maturation of the oocyte. |
