Granulosa Cells (PrmF)


Ovr.PrmF.GrCs

Granulosa/follicle cells are ovary-specific somatic, supporting cells that surround the maturing oocyte in the follicle.

Formation of a fluid-filled antrum in the antral follicles drives morphological and functional separation of preantral granulosa cells into cumulus granulosa and mural granulosa cells.
