DOI: 10.1007/s10815-018-1312-4
Abstract: One of the marvels of the reproductive process of viviparous organisms like ourselves is the extraordinary synchronization of events driving everything from ovulation to implantation. There is no better case to make than the remarkable… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10815-019-01598-4
Abstract: The impact of the prematurely elevated serum progesterone on the late follicular phase, commonly known as premature luteinization (PL), is a matter of continuing debate. Available evidence supports that serum progesterone ≥ 1.5 ng/ml on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.theriogenology.2020.11.003
Abstract: The present study was designed to evaluate luteinization rates subsequent to aspiration of dominant follicles (≥25 mm) in the absence of a functional CL (progesterone 0.05) at 83, 67, 83, and 100%, respectively. Correspondingly, progesterone concentrations… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41420-020-00324-9
Abstract: Molecular mechanisms underlying luteinization (terminal differentiation of granulosa and theca cells after ovulation) and luteolysis (demise of corpus luteum) are poorly understood in human ovary. Here we report that activin-A, after binding to its cognate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1071/rdv30n1ab161
Abstract: Maturing mammalian oocytes can prevent luteinization of cumulus cells (CC) both in vivo and in vitro by regulating CC steroidogenesis (Gilchrist et al. 2004 Anim. Reprod. Sci. 82-83, 431-446; Ramirez et al. 2016 Anim. Reprod.… read more here.

Placental Growth Factor Is Required for Ovulation, Luteinization, and Angiogenesis in Primate Ovulatory Follicles
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Endocrinology"
DOI: 10.1210/en.2017-00739
Abstract: Placental growth factor (PGF) is member of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family of angiogenesis regulators. VEGFA is an established regulator of ovulation and formation of the corpus luteum. To determine whether PGF also… read more here.
