Table 2.

Comparison analysis of follicles numbers in different aged monkey ovaries.

Groups Number of ovaries counted Number of sections counted per ovary Number of healthy follicles per ovary per animal (mean ± SEM) Number of atretic follicles per ovary per animal (mean ± SEM) Total follicles per ovary per animal (mean ± SEM)
Young 3 31 22097 ± 1243.0A 400.7 ± 21.4A 22498 ± 1264.0A
Middle-aged 3 33 12581 ± 512.7B 534.7 ± 39.1B 13115 ± 499.4B
Old 3 20 7.3 ± 2.3C 2.7 ± 1.1C 10.0 ± 1.3C

Atretic follicles with no obvious oocytes were not counted. A, B, and C in each column indicate significant differences among groups (P < 0.001).
