摘要:

颗粒细胞(granulosa cell)是卵泡内的体细胞,在卵泡的生长发育过程中发挥着至关重要的作用。随着卵泡发育至窦卵泡期,颗粒细胞分化为在空间和功能上不同的2个种群,即围绕在卵母细胞周围的卵丘细胞(cumulus cell)和排列在卵泡壁上的壁颗粒细胞(mural granulosa cell)。卵丘细胞主要为卵母细胞的生长发育提供营养和能量,而壁颗粒细胞主要承担内分泌功能。卵丘细胞与壁颗粒细胞不仅是位置不同,还存在功能、基因等方面的差异。迄今为止,人卵丘细胞和壁颗粒细胞在代谢组学的差异尚少见报道。综述卵丘细胞和壁颗粒细胞差异学的相关研究进展,并提出卵丘细胞和壁颗粒细胞在代谢谱表达上存在差异的新猜想,探究两者之间的差异可能为开发评估卵母细胞和胚胎质量新的标志物提供新思路,这对预测妊娠结局具有重要的临床价值。

Abstract:

Granulosa cells (GC) are the somatic cells in the follicles. With the development of follicles, GCs are differentiated into two kinds of cells, in terms of location and function: cumulus cells and mural granulosa cells. The cumulus cells are surrounding the oocyte, while the mural granulosa cells (GCs) are lining at the follicular wall. Cumulus cells mainly provide nutrition and energy for the oocyte growth and development, while mural granulosa cells are mainly responsible for endocrine function. Up to date, the differences in metabolomics between human cumulus cells and mural granulosa cells have not been reported. The definitions and differences in function and gene expression between cumulus cells and mural granulosa cells are systematically discussed in this review. New conjectures about the differences in metabolic profiles are also proposed. Exploring the differences between the two kinds of cells may be helpful to evaluate oocyte quality and embryonic developmental potential, and may have important clinical value in predicting pregnancy outcome.
