<h4>Background</h4>Partial loss of function of the transcription factor FOXL2 leads to premature ovarian failure in women. In animal models, Foxl2 is required for maintenance, and possibly induction, of female sex determination independently of other critical genes, e.g., Rspo1. Here we report expression profiling of mouse ovaries that lack Foxl2 alone or in combination with Wnt4 or Kit/c-Kit.<h4>Results</h4>Following Foxl2 loss, early testis genes (including Inhbb, Dhh, and Sox9) and several no ...[more]
