Effects of oocyte removal with or without replacement of OSFs on FSHR, AMH, AREG, EREG, ADAM17, EGFR, PTGS2, TNFAIP6, PTX3, and HAS2 mRNA abundance in cumulus cells from COCs subjected to AREG-stimulated IVM for 4 and 22 h. COCs were cultured intact (COC), oocytectomized (OOX), or oocytectomized with denuded oocytes (OOX + DO). Data represent mRNA abundance of a given target gene relative to the reference genes (RPL15 and CYCA). Bars with different letters are significantly different (p<0.05). Data derive from four independent replicates
