Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) modulate ovarian function, including FGF8 and FGF18. These FGFs activate the same receptors, although FGF18 is unusual in that it increases apoptosis in ovarian granulosa cells whereas the 'typical' response to FGF is increased proliferation. The objective of the present study was to determine which early response genes and pathways are activated by FGF8 and FGF18 in bovine granulosa cells. FGF8 increased abundance of mRNA encoding the FGF-responsive genes SPRY1, ...[more]
