Impact of Neutral Sphingomyelinase Inhibition on Small Extracellular Vesicle Production by Mural Granulosa Cells and In Vitro Folliculogenesis in Mice. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) function as critical regulators of ovarian follicular development. Although several pathways, including one involving neutral sphingomyelinase (nSMase), contribute to sEV production, the specific pathway active in ovarian follicles has not been clearly identified.

Significance of LHCGR polymorphisms in polycystic ovary syndrome: an association study
AbstractThis study was conducted to analyze the association of Luteinizing Hormone/Choriogonadotropin Receptor (LHCGR) gene rs4953616 and rs7371084 polymorphisms with the risk of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in Punjab, India. A total of 823 women (443 PCOS cases and 380 healthy controls) were enrolled in the present study.
