Patent Issued for Compounds for use in regulating follicle maturation (USPTO 12194031).

Aarhus Universitet has been granted a patent for compounds that regulate follicle maturation, particularly focusing on the transition from primordial to primary follicles. The patent aims to address infertility issues by treating primordial follicles with an NRF2 modulator and re-inserting them into the individual. This method may help women facing egg production challenges due to factors like age-related decline or pathologies such as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. The patent highlights the importance of controlling early stages of egg development to address infertility concerns. [Extracted from the article]
