Endocrine Integration of Fetal Ovaries Grafted under Kidney Capsule of Unilaterally or Bilaterally Orchidectomized Male Hamster

Mammalian ovary development undergoes important changes during the perinatal period, moment when follicles are assembled and start to develop in a process not well known, involving endocrine and paracrine factors. In order to investigate the effect of two different hormonal environments on the early...
