From: Responsiveness of bovine cumulus-oocyte-complexes (COC) to porcine and recombinant human FSH, and the effect of COC quality on gonadotropin receptor and Cx43 marker gene mRNAs during maturation in vitro

Figure 5

Figure 5A. Expression of Cx43 mRNA in three COC quality grades at 6, 12, 18 and 24 h of maturation. Mean ± standard error (n = 4 replicates). ab COC quality grades with no superscripts in common are different, at least P < 0.05. xy Time-points with no superscripts in common are different, at least P < 0.05. Figure 5B. Expression of Cx43 mRNA in three quality grades of COCs washed in heparin-free media at 0 and 6 h of maturation. Mean ± standard error (n = 4 replicates).
