Abstract:
Objective To investigate the possibility that TGF ? may also influence the basal and FSH stimulated production of estradiol and progesterone by granulosa cells in vitro. Methods Granulosa cells were obtained from infertile patients undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer treatment and cultured with serum free supplemented HAM′s F 10 medium(control) or increasing concentrations of TGF ? 1,2 in the absence or presence of FSH (96 U/ml). The media were collected in 24, 48, 72 and 96 h intervals and assayed for estradiol and progesterone. Results Increasing amounts of TGF ? had a significant effect on estradiol production, especially in the presence of FSH,The estradiol value was evaluated from (12 077.9?5 835.3) pmol/L and (13 656.1? 8 404 3) pmol/L to (16 606.8?7 993.3) pmol/L and (19 480.4?913.8) pmol/L. TGF ? inhibited FSH stimulated progesterone but not unstimulated progesterone release ( P
