From: Cumulus cells steroidogenesis is influenced by the degree of oocyte maturation
Challenge of cumulus cell monolayers with conditioned media from pig oocytes cultured in vitro under different, unfavorable conditions, namely COCs without hormonal support (M-H), and matured denuded oocytes (MD), compared to immature (GV) and properly matured cells (M+H). Histograms represent the mean E2 production ± sd. Control wells were treated as in fig 2 and 3. * P < 0.01 (Student t-test).
