Detection of germ-cell-specific VASA protein in human ovary. a Primordial follicles VASA positive in cytoplasm oocyte (200X). b Primordial follicle VASA positive with para-nuclear localization corresponding to Balbiani’s vitelline body (1000X). c) Western blot analysis of human ovarian VASA protein (79 kD). d Western blot quantification of VASA protein. This protein was detectable in all samples with variable intensity
