A granulosa cell or follicular cell is a somatic cell of the sex cord that is closely associated with the developing female gamete (called an oocyte or...

Granulosa cell tumours are tumours that arise from granulosa cells. They are estrogen secreting tumours and present as large, complex, ovarian masses....

cluster of cells (called cumulus cells) that surround the oocyte both in the ovarian follicle and after ovulation. It contains numerous granulosa cells. Granulosa...

follicle cells are stimulated to grow but only one oocyte is ovulated. A primordial follicle consists of an epithelial layer of follicular granulosa cells enclosing...

luteal cells (thecal-lutein cells) and follicular granulosa cells luteinize into large luteal cells (granulosal-lutein cells) forming the corpus luteum...

Follicular cells are flat epithelial cells that originate from surface epithelium covering the ovary. They are surrounded by granulosa cells that have...

single follicle during ovulation. Theca cells and granulosa cells together form the stroma of the ovary. Theca cells are responsible for synthesizing androgens...

Oocytes are immature eggs and are surrounded by granulosa cells and internal and external theca cells. Oocytes are then able to mature within the follicle...

oogonia become fully surrounded by a layer of connective tissue cells (pre-granulosa cells). In this way, the rudiments of the ovarian follicles are formed...

spaces between granulosa cells. The granulosa cells are usually arranged haphazardly around the space. They are pathognomonic for granulosa cell tumors. Histologically...

FSH in females, also referable to as ovarian follicle hypoplasia or granulosa cell hypoplasia in females, is a rare autosomal recessive genetic and endocrine...

ovarian development and function. In postnatal ovaries FOXL2 regulates granulosa cell differentiation and supports the growth of the pre-ovulatory follicles...

makes granulosa cells exhibit estrogen production, while a higher plating density makes them appear as progesterone-producing theca lutein cells. Cells can...

outer layers of granulosa cells of the follicle, causing a decrease in cyclic GMP in the granulosa cells. Because the granulosa cells and oocyte are connected...

the increase of FSH, the protein inhibin B will be secreted by the granulosa cells. Inhibin B will eventually blunt the secretion of FSH toward the end...

The list of human cell types provides an enumeration and description of the various specialized cells found within the human body, highlighting their...
