To verify the possible role played by pig granulosa cells in the ovarian angiogenic process, we have developed a reliable in vitro system which allows the evaluation of endothelial sprouting and capillary growth in three-dimensional matrices. Granulosa cells collected from porcine follicles of different size were co-cultured with porcine aortic endothelial cells (PAEC) in a microcarrier-based fibrin gel system; after 2 and 5 days of co-culture, we determined the number and length of all endothelial sprouts; moreover, these parameters were quantified only in capillary-like structures, which were defined as continuous multicellular sprouts at least 200 µm long. In granulosa cells- PAEC co-cultures we observed an increase of angiogenic activity as compared to controls (PAEC alone). Granulosa cells from follicles of different size regulate angiogenesis differently: cells from the small follicle group significantly enhanced endothelial sprouting, while those from the large follicle group favoured mainly capillary elongation. Our observations seem therefore to suggest that the development and growth of thecal vascular bed is controlled by paracrine factors of granulosa cell origin that may induce the formation of a primitive capillary plexus during the early phases of antral follicle growth, which will be remodelled in more advanced phases of follicular development.

Granulosa cells were isolated from large (≥8 mm) follicles and incubated for 24 h without or with LH (100 ng/mL), daidzein, genistein or equol in doses of 0.5, 5, 10, and 50 µg/mL each or combination (3:13:39) of these isoflavones at a dose 50 µg/ml. The concentration of oestradiol-17ß in incubation media was measured by RIA. All the isoflavones at used doses decreased significantly basal and LH-stimulated secretion of oestradiol-17ß by granulosa cells in a dose dependent manner. The combination of these isoflavones also inhibited significantly oestradiol-17ß secretion by the cells. These data suggested that decreased secretion of oestradiol-17ß caused by dietary isoflavones could be a reason of silent heat in cows.

The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of testosterone (T) and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) applied alone or in combination with antiandrogen (flutamide) on proliferation, progesterone secretion and telomerase activity (TA) of pig granulosa cells (GC) derived from small (1-3 mm; SFGC) and large (5-7 mm; LF-GC) ovarian follicles. Cells were treated with investigated factors for 48 h. 5α-DHT stimulated (P<0.05-0.01) proliferation of SF and LF granulosa cells. Flutamide applied individually and in a combination with testosterone and DHT stimulated (P<0.05-0.01) proliferation of pig GC from small and large antral follicles. Flutamide had no effect on progesterone synthesis in small as well as in large follicle GC. Antiandrogen applied individually and in a combination with testosterone and DHT enhanced (P<0.05-0.01) telomerase actitvity in SF- and LF-GC. The results of the study suggest the involvement of androgen receptor in telomerase activity regulation in pig GC and a link between telomerase and the proliferation status of GC.

This study was designed to investigate levels of ETAR gene expression in the granulosa layer of broiler hens with different levels of plasma leptin and lipids (cholesterol and triacyglycerol). To induce different plasma leptin and lipid levels, the hens were fed high (20 and 40% more than recommended) and low (20% less than recommended) feed rations for 30 days. Variations of plasma leptin and lipids followed those found in the levels of feed intake and body weight in individual groups while the relative amount of ETAR mRNA increased in all groups. The effect, however, was significant (P<0.05) only for T+20% group. It is concluded that ETAR gene expression in follicular granulosa cells could be influenced by leptin in the broiler hens.
