Effect of PA on apoptosis-related gene expression in mouse granulosa cells. a Caspase 3 activity in mouse granulosa cells after treatment with different doses of PA (0-800 μM) for 24 h. b Relative BAX expression in mouse granulosa cells after treatment with different doses of PA (0-800 μM) for 24 h. BAX expression was normalized to the level of β-actin expression. The statistical analysis results are shown in the bar graphs. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM of three independent experiments. Bars with different letters are significantly different (p < 0.05)
