ERK1/2-SOX9/FOXL2 axis regulates ovarian steroidogenesis and favors the follicular–luteal transition
ERK1/2 negatively regulates estradiol synthesis while positively regulating progesterone production in ovarian granulosa cells via the ERK1/2-SOX9/FOXL2 axis. Estradiol and progesterone are the primary sex steroids produced by the ovary. Upon luteinizing

Renal metastasis of ovarian granulosa cell tumor
IntroductionWe would like to present a rare case of metastatic renal tumor.Case presentationA 60‐year‐old woman presented to our department with a left renal tumor. She underwent a total hysterectomy and right adnexal resection for a stage IA ovarian granulosa cell tumor approximately 15 years ago, followed by left adnexal resection and postoperative ...

Ovarian Granulosa Cell Tumor: A Clinicopathological Series [PDF]
Introduction: Granulosa cell tumours (GCT) are uncommon neoplasms, accounting for 2-5% of all ovarian carcinomas. The pathogenesis of these tumours is characterised by differentiation towards the follicular granulosa cell. However, the exact cell of origin is disputed, with the granulosa cell, thecal cell or fibroblast having been proposed as putative ...

Molecular manipulation of keratin 8/18 intermediate filaments: modulators of FAS-mediated death signaling in human ovarian granulosa tumor cells [PDF]
Background: Granulosa cell tumors (GCT) are a rare ovarian neoplasm but prognosis is poor following recurrence. Keratin intermediate filaments expressed in these tumors are a diagnostic marker, yet paradoxically, may also constitute a target for ...

Mechanisms of chemotherapy-induced human ovarian aging: double strand DNA breaks and microvascular compromise [PDF]
The mechanism of chemotherapy-induced acceleration of ovarian aging is not fully understood. We used doxorubicin, a widely used cancer chemotherapeutic, in a variety of in vivo xenograft, and in vitro models to investigate the impact of chemotherapy ...

Neonatal exposure to xenoestrogens impairs the ovarian response to gonadotropin treatment in lambs [PDF]
Bisphenol A (BPA) and diethylstilbestrol (DES) are xenoestrogens which have been associated with altered effects on reproduction. We hypothesized that neonatal xenoestrogen exposure affects the ovarian functionality in lambs.
