FOXO3 Is Expressed in Ovarian Tissues and Acts as an Apoptosis Initiator in Granulosa Cells of Chickens

FOXO3, which encodes the transcription factor forkhead box O-3 (FoxO3), is a member of the FOXO subfamily of the forkhead box (FOX) family. FOXO3 can be negatively regulated by its phosphorylation by the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and ultimately drives apoptosis when activated. In mammalian ovaries,...
