Granulosa cell tumors of the ovary are malignancies that originate from the sex-cord stromal cells of the ovary and represent 2% to 5% of all ovarian cancers. Slow growth with a tendency for late recurrence characterizes a natural history of this tumor. So this tumor needs a prolonged follow-up. As a result of recent literature in Korea, the findings are 3 cases of juvenile granulosa cell tumor...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are closely related to the follicular granulosa cell apoptosis. Grape seed procyanidin B2 (GSPB2) has been reported to possess potent antioxidant activity. However, the GSPB2-mediated protective effects and the underlying molecular mechanisms in granulosa cell apoptosis process remain unknown. In this study, we showed for the first time that GSPB2 treatment decreas...
Two monoclonal antibodies capable of inducing granulosa cell apoptosis were produced against granulosa cells prepared from antral follicles of pig ovaries. The healthy follicles, 4-5 mm in diameter, were dissected from the ovaries of gilts, and then granulosa cells were isolated. BALB/c female mice were immunized with the isolated granulosa cells. Antibodies against the granulosa cells were det...
Ovarian follicle atresia is thought to be induced through apoptosis of granulosa cells. This study was designed to investigate the possible involvement of nitric oxide (NO) in granulosa cell apoptosis. In immature rat ovaries obtained 48 h after pregnant mare serum gonadotropin administration, immunohistochemistry and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTPbiotin nick end labeling (...
BACKGROUND Homeobox (HOX) genes encode transcription factors, which regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, adhesion, and migration. The deregulation of HOX genes is frequently associated with human reproductive system disorders. However, knowledge regarding the role of HOX genes in human granulosa cells is limited. METHODS To determine the role of HOXA7 in the regulation and associated...
•Over 90% of granulosa cell tumors have a FOXL2 mutation that contributes to aromatase upregulation.•Chemotherapy has demonstrated limited efficacy in the treatment of granulosa cell tumors.•A patient with recurrent granulosa cell tumor responded briefly to anastrazole treatment.•Retreatment with another aromatase inhibitor letrozole led to a durable response of 24 months.
Folliculogenesis is a progressive and highly regulated process, which is essential to provide ova for later reproductive life, requires the bidirectional communication between the oocyte and granulosa cells. This physical connection-mediated communication conveys not only the signals from the oocyte to granulosa cells that regulate their proliferation but also metabolites from the granulosa cel...
Granulosa cells support the developing oocytes and serve as transducers of the ovulatory stimulus induced by LH surge. Fyn kinase is expressed in granulosa cells, though its role in these cells has not been studied. In human embryonic kidney 293T cells, microRNA (miR)-125a-3p down-regulates Fyn expression, causing a decrease in cells' migratory ability. Our aim was to explore the role of miR-12...
background: gap-junctional intercellular communication (gjic) is implicated in physicological processes and it is vitally important for granulosa cell (gc) differentiation and oocyte growth. we investigated the expression of connexin 43 (cx43), a gap junctional protein, in normal and androstenedione-induced polycystic ovary (pco), the effects of androstenedione on cx43 expression, gjic and prog...
We used co-cultures of porcine ovarian granulosa cells and mouse adrenocortical tumor cells (Y-1) to examine the kinetics of contact-dependent intercellular signal transfer and to assess the molecular mechanisms employed by this process. Exposure to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) caused cAMP-dependent protein kinase dissociation in granulosa cells and, with time, in Y-1 cells if, and only i...
