The Identification and Characterization of Stem/Progenitor Cells in the Ovarian Surface Epithelium

When a follicle ovulates, the ovarian surface epithelium (OSE), which covers the surface of the ovary, is ruptured and then rapidly regenerates. Because of this cycle of wound and repair, we determined if the OSE contains a stem/progenitor cell population. We identified a population of OSE cells wit...
