Abstract
A study was conducted to demonstrate IGF-1 gene expression in porcine ovarian tissue. Using northern blot analysis, IGF-1 messenger ribonucl eic acid (mRNA) transcripts could not be consistently detected in tota l RNA. Authentic mRNA transcripts were detected in polyadenylated RNA- enriched RNA with sizes of 8.0, 3.6 and 2.3 bases, and possibly 0.8-1. 1 kbases.
