The mean ± sem, level of aromatase P ₄₅₀ protein in granulosa cell lysates from medium (2.0 to 3.5 mm) and large (>3.5 mm) diameter oestrogenic (oestradiol >100 ng/mL) and non-oestrogenic (oestradiol <100 ng/mL) follicles from ewes during the luteal and follicular phases of the oestrous cycle infused with saline (light grey columns) or with 10 mM/h of glucose (dark grey columns) for 72 h during the late luteal phase of the oestrous cycle. Follicle classes with different letters (x and y) and columns with different letters (a and b) differ significantly at P < 0.05.
