Abstract:The protective effect of L-carnitine (LC) on the oxidative stress (OS) injury and the effect of L-carnitine on follicular stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) of ovarian granulosa cells (GCs) were investigated. OS was induced by treatment with H2O2. We cultured KGN cells in four groups: the blank group, OS group and two L-carnitine pretreatment group (low, high). In the OS group, cell nuclear pyknosis was observed, mitochondria swelled irregularly and their cristae were fractured. Meanwhile, the cell viability,… Show more
