Apoptosis of Granulosa Cells: A Review on the Role of MAPK-signalling modules

Recent studies suggest that ovarian follicular atresia is associated with DNA fragmentation and degeneration of granulosa cells, the hallmark of programmed cell death or apoptosis. Apoptosis of granulosa cells play a major role in follicular atresia. These studies have also demonstrated the involvement of tumour suppressors, apoptotic proteins and survival factors. These factors contribute to the developmental decision as to whether the ovarian follicles mature or undergo atresia. However, the precise temporal and molecular events involved in the apoptotic pathways in this process need to be elucidated. The present report summarizes the role of Jun N‐terminal kinase (JNK), p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK), and extracellular‐signal regulated kinase (ERK)‐signalling module in the regulation of pro‐ and anti‐apoptotic factors of the granulosa cells in regulating follicular atresia. The findings presented here suggest that the loss of tropic hormone support is translated into the attenuation of Raf‐1‐MAPK/ERK kinase (MEK)‐ERK‐signalling pathway of the granulosa cells and this results in the decreased phosphorylation of the pro‐apoptotic BAD.

研究主要是通过比较水牛卵巢颗粒细胞在不同培养基中的生长状态,并对细胞的增殖、核型及凋亡情况进行检测,以了解水牛卵巢颗粒细胞体外生长特性,建立水牛卵巢颗粒细胞的体外培养体系。结果发现,分离获得的水牛卵巢颗粒细胞存活率约为60%;采用DMEM培养基,颗粒细胞的生长速度和生长状态优于TCM-199和DMEM/F12培养基;细胞培养24 h后开始零星增殖,3~5 d增殖速度达到高峰;第1、3、5、7代颗粒细胞正常核型比率差异不显著,均在85%以上;第1代颗粒细胞的凋亡率与第5代差异显著(P<0.05),与第7代差异极显著(P<0.01)。结果表明,DMEM培养基更适宜用于水牛颗粒细胞的体外培养;水牛颗粒细胞能稳定地进行传代培养,染色体的数目不会发生明显改变,但细胞凋亡率会随着培养代数的增加而明显升高。

水牛有腔卵泡颗粒细胞凋亡的生物形态学特征

为了解水牛有腔卵泡闭锁的起因和有腔卵泡中是否存在卵泡颗粒细胞凋亡，本研究选择青春期前水牛和成年（发情间期和发情期）水牛的卵巢，采用石蜡组织切片、HE染色技术进行光镜观察，并采用DNA原位末端标记（TUNEL）技术和透射电镜观察研究了卵泡颗粒细胞凋亡的特征。结果表明：青春期前水牛的健康有腔卵泡上无或仅有极个别凋亡的卵泡颗粒细胞（GCs），而闭锁有腔卵泡上存在有多量凋亡的GCs，凋亡的形式：GCs层内出现单个或多个凋亡细胞，卵泡腔内出现凋亡小体群。在成年水牛发情间期的闭锁大卵泡上，GCs层弯曲皱折，存在多量凋亡的GCs。发情期水牛成熟卵泡的GCs层也存在GCs凋亡，排卵前的GCs层细胞全部脱落到卵泡腔内。本研究首次在同一组织切片上先后分别应用HE染色和TUNEL检查细胞凋亡，且证实了水牛有腔卵泡GCs凋亡的存在。超微结构显示了GCs凋亡的核边集化、核浓缩及凋亡小体的形态。上述结果提示：在水牛闭锁有腔卵泡中存在着GCs凋亡，GCs凋亡是启动水牛有腔卵泡闭锁的潜在机理。

Low Molecular Mass Factors from Follicular Fluid Inhibit Steroidogenesis in Bovine Granulosa Cells

Gonadotropins are required for follicular growth and differentiation, but increasing amounts of evidence indicate that intrafollicular factors modulate their effects at granulosa cell level. In order to study the effect of factors present in bovine follicular fluid, a partial purification of low molecular mass factors from fluids collected from small (< 5 mm), medium (5–8 mm) and large (> 8 mm) follicles was performed and the biological activity of these peptides on steroidogenesis of granulosa cells from small and large follicles was examined. The purification was carried out by filtration through membranes in 25 and 10 kDa molecular weight cutoffs. After filtration, samples were analysed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and protein concentration was measured by spectrophotometric analysis. Granulosa cells from small and large follicles were cultured in serum‐free DMEM/Ham's F12 (1 : 1) plus transferrin (5 mg/l) and selenium (5 µg/l) for 2 days. At the end of the culture period, media were renewed and follicular extracts from two different preparations (< 25 and < 10 kDa) were added at the concentrations of 1–10–100–1000 ng/ml. After 24 h the media were collected and stored until estradiol 17β (E2) and progesterone (P4) determination by validated radio‐immuno‐assays. Basal P4 production was 18.3 ± 1.4 (mean ± SEM)and 9.8 ± 1.8 ng/24 h per 3 × 10⁴ cells from small and large follicles, respectively. Both < 10 and < 25 kDa extracts reduced P4 production by cells from both the types of follicles (p < 0.05). Basal E2 release was 671.8 ± 21.4 and 5500 ± 800 pg/24 h per 3 × 10⁴ cells from small and large follicles, respectively. Both extracts reduced E2 production by either cells from small and large follicles (p < 0.05). No differences were observed in the inhibition of steroidogenesis by purifications obtained from large, medium or small follicles. Results of this study indicate that factors present in bovine follicular fluid can reduce steroidogenesis in granulosa cells in vitro.

Chronological Appearance of Apoptosis in Bovine Embryos Reconstructed by Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer from Quiescent Granulosa Cells

Efficiency of cloning has remained low and in spite of attempts to improve this technology, many reconstructed embryos do not implant or are lost during early pregnancy. Chromosomal aberrations, deviant gene expression patterns and abnormal regulation of cell death may be involved in this increased early embryonic loss. Here, we investigate the chronological onset of both apoptotic changes in nuclear morphology and DNA degradation [detected by transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labelling (TUNEL) reaction] in bovine two-cell- to blastocyst-stage embryos. Such embryos were generated either by reconstruction with nuclear transfer from quiescent granulosa cells or by regular in vitro embryo production. Nuclear condensation was observed from the two-cell stage and TUNEL labelling was observed from the six-cell stage in reconstructed embryos, whereas nuclear condensation was evident from the eight-cell stage and TUNEL labelling from the 13-cell stage in embryos derived in vitro. Furthermore, reconstructed embryos displayed elevated ratios of embryos containing apoptotic nuclei at pre-compaction stages and higher indices of apoptotic nuclei in morula and blastocyst stages when compared with in vitro-produced embryos.

Testosterone Influences Water Transport in Porcine Granulosa Cells

The development of antral ovarian follicles entails fluid accumulation, but the mechanisms regulating water flux are unknown. Aquaporins are small, integral membrane proteins facilitating passive movement of water, some of which are known to be regulated by steroid hormones. The aim of this study was to determine whether testosterone (T) influences water transport in porcine granulosa cells. To assess water movement, the swelling of granulosa cells when moved from isotonic (319 mOsm) to hypotonic (95 mOsm) medium was measured after 12‐hour pre‐incubation in the presence of either testosterone (T), the antiandrogen 2‐hydroxyflutamide (HF) or HF and T together. Pre‐incubation with T increased the swelling of granulosa cells (p < 0.01) and this was abolished by HF (p < 0.001). Neither T nor HF affected cells in isotonic medium (319 mOsm). The results indicate that T acting via intracellular androgen receptors increases water permeability of porcine granulosa cells, probably through the regulation of aquaporin activity.
