Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have been reported to have an elevated serum advanced glycation end product (AGE) level. However, the effect of AGEs on the pathophysiological ovarian granulosa cells of PCOS is still unclear. In this study, five indented BSA-derived AGE products were used to evaluate their effect on the function of human granulosa cells. We found that the proliferation of both primary human ovarian granulosa (hGC) cells and human granulosa-like tumor (KGN) cells were inhibited by treatment with these five AGE products. The progesterone secretion level was also reduced in both hGC and KGN cells by treatment with these AGE products through downregulation of LH receptor/cAMP regulatory ... More
