The Role of High Cxcl11 Expression in Ovarian Dysfunction Through NF‐κB and AKT Pathways in a Thin Endometrium Mouse Model

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
Thin endometrium upregulates Cxcl11, which polarizes ovarian macrophages via NF‐κB/AKT, impairing ovarian function. A new uter‐ovarian signaling axis is identified. ABSTRACT Objective Thin endometrium (TE) is a recognized cause of female infertility, primarily associated with impaired uterine receptivity.

Intrinsic differences in mTOR activity mediates lineage-specific responses to cyclophosphamide in mouse and human granulosa cells

Journal of Ovarian Research
Background Cyclophosphamide (CTX) often induces oocyte and granulosa cell injury, leading to fertility loss in young female cancer survivors. Deciphering the mechanisms underlying follicular cell injury could offer novel insights into fertility ...

Examining Felis catus granulosa cell responses and extracellular vesicle characteristics under biomimetic gonadotropin stimulation in a microfluidic system

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
IntroductionGranulosa cells are essential regulators of follicular development and oocyte competence, yet the effects of dynamic gonadotropin exposure on granulosa cell function and extracellular vesicle (EV)-mediated communication remain poorly ...

Acupuncture regulates the apoptosis of ovarian granulosa cells in polycystic ovarian syndrome-related abnormal follicular development through LncMEG3-mediated inhibition of miR-21-3p

Biological Research, 2023
Background The main features of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are abnormal follicular development and ovulatory dysfunction, which are caused by excessive apoptosis of ovarian granulosa cells.

Bisphenol Analog‐Induced Cytotoxicity: Unraveling Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) Stress and Apoptotic Pathways

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA) is increasingly replaced by structural analogs, yet their safety remains insufficiently characterized. This study investigated whether BPA and selected analogs, bisphenol AF (BPAF), bisphenol AP (BPAP), bisphenol P (BPP), and bisphenol E (BPE), induce cytotoxicity through activation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and ...

Granulosa cell tumor of the ovary: a clinicopathological study of six cases

Journal of Pathology of Nepal, 2011
Background: Ovarian granulosa cell tumors are rare malignant neoplasms that originate from the sexcord stromal cells of the ovary. The study aims to collate data of all granulosa cell tumors diagnosed in Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital over the ...

Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

Toxic Effects of Bisphenol A and Its Analogs on Ovarian Structure and Function: A Narrative Review of Ovary‐Focused Studies

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widely used industrial chemical found in polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins and is recognized for its endocrine‐disrupting properties. Human exposure is common due to its presence in food packaging and everyday products. As BPA use has been restricted, structurally similar compounds such as BPS, BPB, BPAF, and BADGE

Hematological and Genotoxic Effects of Subchronic Oral Exposure to a Mancozeb‐Based Fungicide in Female Mice

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The extensive use of pesticides in modern agriculture has raised increasing concerns regarding the potential biological effects of repeated exposure to pesticide residues and commercial formulations. Mancozeb is a widely used ethylene‐bis‐dithiocarbamate fungicide; however, information on its hematological and genotoxic effects following ...

4-Aminopyridine Decreases Progesterone Production by Porcine Granulosa Cells

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2003
Background Ion channels occur as large families of related genes with cell-specific expression patterns. Granulosa cells have been shown to express voltage-gated potassium channels from more than one family. The purpose of this study was to determine the
