STAT3 regulates cell apoptosis and proliferation of ovarian granulosa cells (GCs). PcDNA3.1-STAT3 decreased cell apoptosis (A) and increased cell proliferation (B) in GCs as assessed by Annexin V-FITC/PI and Edu staining, respectively. SiRNA-STAT3 increased cell apoptosis (C,D) decreased cell proliferation in porcine GCs as assessed by Annexin V-FITC/PI and Edu staining, respectively. For Annexin V-FITC/P analysis, cells in the lower right quadrant were annexin-positive/PI-negative early apoptotic cells. The cells in the upper right quadrant were annexin-positive/PI-positive late apoptotic cells. The percentage of cells undergoing early and late apoptosis were presented in the relating barplot. ** indicates p < 0.01; * indicates p < 0.05. Data were represented as means ± SD.
