Question

Test your knowledge of granulosa cells by completing each of the following sentences follicle-stimulating hormone antrum The granulosa cells surround and nourish the primary oocyte contained with the follicle Granulosa cells Granulosa cells secrete chemical messengers that influence the oocyte and also the surrounding theca cells androgen Granulosa cells secrete fluid into the antrum estrogen Granulosa cells contain receptors for the steroid hormone and from the pituitary gland during the early and middle follicular Leydig cells phases Granulosa cells express an enzyme called , which converts luteinizing hormone (LH) from theca cells to estrogen inhibin Granulosa cells secrete the protein hormone luteinizing hormone (LH), which inhibits follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) secretion from the anterior pituitary Sertoli cells In the late follicular phase, granulosa cells also express preparation for ovulation and formation of the receptors in corpus luteum aromatase in the female are analogous to in the male primary oocyte

Explanation / Answer

First answer by you is correct.

surrounding theca cell............. [ granulosa cells modulate primary oocyte and thecal cells around them]

Granulosa cell secrets fluids into antrum [ CORRECT]

Granulosa cells contain receptor fro the steroid hormone estrogen and Follicular-stimulating hormone(FSH) [ explanation: estrogen receptors are critical for granulosa cell differentiation in the mid and late phase of the menstrual cycle, FSH receptors are also expressed by the granulosa cells, while LH receptors are expressed by theca cells]

Granulosa cells express an enzyme called aromatase, which converts androgen from theca cells to estrogen.[ aromatase converts androgen to estrogen, this is an important function of granulosa ceel]

Granulosa cells secrete the protein hormone inhibin, which inhibits follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH) secretion from the anterior pituitary. [ only inhibin is protein nature here, ad it also inhibit the FSH from pituitary, also LH is produced by pituitary not by granulosa cell]

In the late follicular phase...... granulosa cell also express luteinizing hormone(LH) receptors in preparation of ovulation and formation of the corpus luteum.

Granulosa cells in female analogous to Sertoli cells in male[ both are analogous cell to give support and nutrition the oocyte and sperm]
