Abstract: 【Objective】The aim of the experiment is to investigate the effect of IGF-I on prehierarchical follicle development from laying chickens.【Method】IGF-I receptor (IGF-IR) expression in granulosa and theca cells was studied in the prehierarchical follicles of laying chickens via immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR. In addition, the effects of IGF-I on small yellow follicle (SYF) development were investigated. 【Result】The expression of IGF-IR gradually increased in both granulosa and theca layers from the prehierarchical follicles. Moreover, IGF-IR displayed the highest expression in SYF. Compared with control, treatment with IGF-I and FSH alone or in combination significantly increased cell density, thickness of granulosa and theca layers, stimulated the expression IGF-IR in both granulosa and theca layer from SYF. Furthermore, IGF-I and FSH displayed an additive effect. 【Conclusion】 These results indicate that IGF-I may increase follicular cell number, thickness of granulosa and theca layers and stimulated IGF-IR mRNA expression in SYF. In addition, IGF-I exhibited synergistic effect with FSH to enhance prehierarchical follicular cell proliferation. Therefore, these results may facilitate delineating the mechanism of intra-ovarian endocrine regulation of poultry follicle development.
