Abstract

Periovulatory follicle microvasculature was studied in prepubertal gilt ovary using SEM of vascular corrosion casts and immunohistochemistry for von Willenbrand Factor, Ki-67 and -smooth muscle actin. At LH surge, preovulatory follicles were characterized by a low endothelial proliferation. Thereafter, a significant increase of proliferating endothelial cells and a reorganization of the theca blood vessels (including arterioles and venules) was demonstrated.[...]
