miR-21-3p inhibits autophagy of bovine granulosa cells by targeting VEGFA via PI3K/AKT signaling

Abstract excerpt

It is well documented that granulosa cell apoptosis is the main reason for follicular atresia and death; however, increasing evidence suggests that autophagy plays an important role in the fate of granulosa cells. miR-21-3p regulates many fundamental biological processes and is pivotal in the autophagy of tumor cells; nevertheless, the autophagy in cattle ovary and how miR-21-3p regulates the follicular cells is...
