Fig. 5 TEM photomicrographs of control and PCOS groups. Oocyte, granulosa and theca cells of follicles in control group (a-c), in PCOS group (d-i) and in solvent group (j-l). D shows the relation between oocyte-zona pellucida-granulosa cells; e-h show gra
Figure 9. Fig. 5 TEM photomicrographs of control and PCOS groups. Oocyte, granulosa and theca cells of follicles in control group (a-c), in PCOS group (d-i) and in solvent group (j-l). D shows the relation between oocyte-zona pellucida-granulosa cells; e-h show granulosa cells and I shows the theca cell layer. Note the apoptotic granulosa (e, k) and theca cells (i, l) in PCOS and solvent groups. Arrows indicate expanded perivitellin (d) and intercellular spaces (d, i); arrowheads indicate expanded sER (f) and autophagosomes (e); *: lipid droplets; dashed arrows (g, h): mitochondria with degenerated cristae. Oc: oocyte, Gc: granulosa cell, Tc: theca cell, Zp: zona pellucida. Uranyl acetate and lead citrate

描述

Transmission electron microscopy photomicrographs reveal ultrastructural details of oocytes, granulosa cells, and theca cells in control and PCOS groups. PCOS follicles exhibit mitochondrial swelling, dilated endoplasmic reticulum, and other signs of cellular stress.
