Expression of forkhead transcription factors in human granulosa cells.

چکیده
Members of the forkhead box O1 (FOXO) family of transcription factors are expressed in granulosa cells during various stages of follicle development, and evidence from rodent and other model systems suggests that they may be involved in regulating follicular activation and oocyte maturation. In this report, we show that FOXO1, FOXO3, and FOXO4 are expressed in human luteinized mural granulosa cells, which may suggest that these transcription factors are also involved in human folliculogenesis and luteinization.

Background: Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) is a primary infertility disorder characterized by a reduction in the number and/or quality of oocytes, usually accompanied by high follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels and regular menses. DOR aetiology factors are different, such as genetic factors, ageing, autoimmune disorders, adrenal gland impairment factors and iatrogenic causes, e.g. chemo...

Background: The key enzyme of estrogen biosynthesis, aromatase cytochrome P450,is encoded by the CYP19 gene.CYP19 plays an important role in the development,function,an regulation of the female reproduction cycle. Thus, it is the potential candidate gene affecting fertility performance in human. CYP19 transcripts are expressed mainly in the ovary,testes,breast,adipose tissue and brain. Tissue e...

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common complex genetic endocrinopathy, affecting 5 - 10% of women at reproductive age. PCO granulosa cells seem to have abnormal responses to follicle- stimulating hormone (FSH). FSH is considered to be a pituitary glycoprotein that plays an important role during folliculogenesis as it promotes the proliferation and differentiation of granulosa ...

Background & Aims: Stem cells are undifferentiated cells and are found in different tissues. These cells have capacity of self-renewal and differentiation into other lineages. Granulosa cells (GCs) are the multipotent stem cells. In the present research we evaluated the differentiation potential of GCs into keratinocytes. Material & Methods: GCs were cultured after enzymatic isolation from ova...
