Cumulus cell cathepsins expression in BCB-screened GV-stage COCs. Quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR analysis of mRNA abundance for CTSB (A) , CTSK (B) , CTSS (C) and CTSZ (D) in bovine cumulus cells harvested from GV stage control, BCB+ and BCB− bovine COCs (n = 4 pools of 10 COCs for each oocyte group). Data were normalized relative to abundance of endogenous control (RPS18) and are shown as mean ± standard error. Values with different superscripts across treatments indicate significant differences (P < 0.05)
