Epigenetic Changes of the Cyp11a1 Promoter Region in Granulosa Cells Undergoing Luteinization During Ovulation in Female Rats
18 Jul 2016
Abstract excerpt
The ovulatory LH surge induces rapid up-regulation of Cyp11a1 in granulosa cells (GCs) undergoing luteinization during ovulation. This study investigated in vivo whether epigenetic controls including histone modifications and DNA methylation in the promoter region are associated with the rapid increase of Cyp11a1 gene expression after LH surge. GCs were obtained from rats treated with equine chorionic...
