Gonadotrophin-induced paracrine regulation of human oocyte maturation by BDNF and GDNF secreted by granulosa cells.
BACKGROUND In mammalian ovaries, diverse paracrine factors have been identified to mediate or modulate LH-induced changes during ovulation. Due to the difficulty in obtaining non-stimulated granulosa cells during IVF, little is known about the LH-induced paracrine factors in the human ovary. Based on earlier studies using murine ovarian cells showing the paracrine roles of brain-derived neurotr...
متن کاملParacrine effects of oocyte secreted factors and stem cell factor on porcine granulosa and theca cells in vitro
Oocyte control of granulosa and theca cell function may be mediated by several growth factors via a local feedback loop(s) between these cell types. This study examined both the role of oocyte-secreted factors on granulosa and thecal cells, cultured independently and in co-culture, and the effect of stem cell factor (SCF); a granulosa cell derived peptide that appears to have multiple roles in ...
متن کاملParacrine Regulation of Steroidogenesis in Theca Cells by Granulosa Cells Derived from Mouse Preantral Follicles
Interaction partners of follicular cells play a significant role in steroidogenesis, follicular formation, and development. Androgen secreted by theca cells (TCs) can initiate follicle development and ovulation and provide precursor materials for estrogen synthesis. Therefore, studies on ovarian microenvironment will not only lead to better understanding of the steroidogenesis but also have cli...
متن کاملAnalysis of chorionic gonadotrophin secreted by cultured human blastocysts.
Embryos produced in an in-vitro fertilization (IVF) programme, but which were unsuitable for transfer to patients because they originated from one (1PN) or three pronuclear (3PN) oocytes or because they originated from two pronuclear (2PN) oocytes but cleaved normally, were maintained in tissue culture. The embryos that progressed to blastocytes were cultured to day 14 of development in order t...
متن کاملMouse oocyte control of granulosa cell development and function: paracrine regulation of cumulus cell metabolism.
Bidirectional communication between oocytes and the companion granulosa cells is essential for the development and functions of both compartments. Oocytes are deficient in their ability to transport certain amino acids and in carrying out glycolysis and cholesterol biosynthesis. Cumulus cells must provide them with the specific amino acids and the products in these metabolic pathways. Oocytes c...
