Resumo

The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of the interaction between follicle stimulating hormone obtained from Human Pituitary (hFSH; 10 ng/mL), Insulin-like Growth Factor Type 1 (IGF-I; 100 ng/mL) and thyroxine (T 4 ; 10, 20 ng/mL) on survival, activation and growth of preantral follicles (PAF) cultured in vitro . Fragments of ovarian cortex collected from 17 nonpregnant adult goats underwent different treatments that included α-MEM + medium, IGF-I, hFSH, T 4 and were processed for classic histology and transmission electron microscopy. The results showed a reduction in the percentage of normal follicles, after one and seven days of culture in media α-MEM + (cultured control), T 4 (10)/IGF-I, T 4 (20)/IGF-I/hFSH and in media α-MEM + , IGF-I/hFSH, T 4 (20)/IGF-I/hFSH, T 4 (20)/IGF-I/hFSH , when compared to the non-cultured control. However, the medium containing T 4 (20)/hFSH showed a follicular survival rate higher than the
