The mouse oocyte Balbiani body reassembles in growing follicles to continue organelle selection and upon dispersal influences nuclear position

Qi Yin, Allan C. Spradling

The paper shows the mouse Balbiani body reassembles in growing follicles, persists during oocyte growth, and disperses as the nucleus repositions, influencing mitochondrial and organelle quality control.

Distinct waves of ovarian follicles contribute to mouse oocyte production

Qi Yin, Allan C. Spradling

The paper uses scRNA-seq and lineage tracing to study mouse ovarian follicle waves, finding that wave 1 follicles undergo atresia and contribute to steroidogenesis, while wave 1.5 follicles generate most early oocytes.
