Pursuit of downstream genes of Figla. (a) Venn diagram of DEGs in two comparisons, si-Figla1# vs control (1#) and si-Figla2# vs control (2#). Four samples for each were compared. In total, 306 genes were up-regulated and 661 genes were down-regulated in these two si-Figlas. (b) Schematic of transcripts and phenotypes of the present study and GSE 139966. (c) Schematic of the hypothetical model of Figla functions in folliculogenesis. Figla may regulate the follicle growth of secondary follicles by down-regulating pluripotency and estrogen signaling and up-regulating VDR/RXR activation (solid line), whereas Figla may regulate primordial follicle formation through the activation of meiosis and down-regulation of pluripotency and estrogen signaling (dotted line).
