Fig. 5 Activin-A increases mPRα and mPRβ expression in a dose-dependent manner. Mid- to late growth phase follicles were treated with Cortland′s medium or activin-A at a dose of 1, 10, or 100 ng/ml for 18 h. At the end of the experiment, proteins were extracted from follicles and expression of mPRα and mPRβ was determined by Western blotting probed by anti-mPRα and mPRβ antibodies. Equal loading was confirmed by Western blotting probed with an anti-α-tubulin antibody. Histograms show normalized densitometry data (mean ± S.E.M.) from three experiments. *p < 0.05 vs. control. #p < 0.05 vs. control and activin 1 ng/ml groups.
