Abstract
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is expressed extensively in the mammalian female reproductive system and has been implicated in the development of follicles and oocytes. However, BDNF expression patterns in the ovary and its effects on oocyte maturation and embryonic development in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have not been established. In the present study, we established a PCOS model by treating the rats with insulin and human...
