Progressive Obesity Alters Ovarian Folliculogenesis with Impacts on Pro-Inflammatory and Steroidogenic Signaling in Female Mice1
21 Aug 2014
Abstract excerpt
Diet-induced obesity induces immune cell infiltration and inflammation in peri-ovarian adipose tissue and mRNA expression of inflammatory markers in ovarian tissue. Whether these changes are associated with obesity-related ovarian dysfunction remains unknown. In the present study, qRT-PCR and Western blotting techniques were used to compare mRNA and protein abundance of ovarian immune cell and inflammation...
