✦ Synopsis

Human ovaries from different times during the menstrual cycle, pregnancy and the post-menopausal state were examined by immunohistochemistry using an antibody to ligandin. The results showed that antiligandin was localized to those cells producing steroids and probably acts as an intracellular transport protein but may also have an enzyme function in steroidogenesis. In demonstrating this relationship this study has indicated that antiligandin may be of value in the morphologic investigation of ovaries in conditions where there are assumed alterations in steroid production.

## Abstract The volumetric composition of the human ovary during the compartmentalization stage has been investigated using current stereological methods. Eight left ovaries removed from three fetuses (developmental age 20–25 weeks), four neonates, and one 8‐month‐old child all with a 46, XX karyot
