Abstract:Granulosa cells are not only important supporting cells in follicular development, but also the main cells secreting steroids. The proliferation of GCs and steroid hormone synthesis play a key role in follicular development and atresia. In this experiment, GCs were isolated by follicular fluid aspiration, and identified by immunofluorescence technique. The effects of different concentrations of NAC (50, 100, 500, 1000 µmol/L) on sheep GCs with regards to the antioxidant levels, proliferation, apoptosis, and st… Show more
