Relative expression of AANAT, HIOMT, MT1, and MT2 in COCs of follicles of different sizes. a The relative expression of AANAT, HIOMT, MT1, and MT2 mRNA. Independent experiments were performed three times, with β-actin as an internal control. b Western blotting of AANAT, HIOMT, MT1, MT2 and the relative expression of AANAT, HIOMT, MT1, and MT2 protein in COCs of follicles of different sizes. β-actin was used as an internal control. Data are means ± SEM. Different superscript letters (a-c) indicate statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). S: small follicle; M: medium follicle; L: large follicle
