Abstract

Ovulation in mammals can be subdivided into at least three functional components: ovum maturation, luteinization of granulosa cells and follicular rupture. Although all three processes are initiated by the preovulatory surge of LH, it seems that different mechanisms mediate LH action on these processes.
