Elevated SAA1 promotes the development of insulin resistance in ovarian granulosa cells in polycystic ovary syndrome [PDF]
Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2022 Background Insulin resistance (IR) contributes to ovarian dysfunctions in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) patients. Serum amyloid A1 (SAA1) is an acute phase protein produced primarily by the liver in response to inflammation.

Expression, transport, and storage of fetuin-B in human granulosa cells [PDF]
Scientific ReportsFetuin-B is crucial in fertilization through inhibiting ovastacin, an enzyme that hardens the zona pellucida. Primarily synthesized in the liver, fetuin-B is also found in the placenta, tongue, and follicular fluid produced by granulosa cells. This study

Luzindole and 4P-PDOT block the effect of melatonin on bovine granulosa cell apoptosis and cell cycle depending on its concentration [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Granulosa cells play an essential physiological role in mediating the follicle development and survival or apoptosis of granulosa cells dictate the follicle development or atresia.

PRMT5 regulates ovarian follicle development by facilitating Wt1 translation
eLife, 2021 Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (Prmt5) is the major type II enzyme responsible for symmetric dimethylation of arginine. Here, we found that PRMT5 was expressed at high level in ovarian granulosa cells of growing follicles.

OAZ1 knockdown enhances viability and inhibits ER and LHR transcriptions of granulosa cells in geese. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 An increasing number of studies suggest that ornithine decarboxylase antizyme 1 (OAZ1), which is regarded as a tumor suppressor gene, regulates follicular development, ovulation, and steroidogenesis.

Unicystic Granulosa Cell Tumor [PDF]
Journal of Pathology and Translational Medicine, 2015 Granulosa cell tumors are the most frequent sex cord stromal tumor and account for approximately 5% of all primary ovarian tumors. About 5% occur before puberty and 40% occur in the menopausal age group; however, these tumors have an indolent biological behavior [1].
