Concentrations of hormones from granulosa cells cultured for microarray analyses. Oestradiol (A) and progesterone (B) measured in media from cells cultured in the presence or absence of 0.33 ng/ml FSH and 10 ng/ml TNFα (n = 4 each). The axes are logarithmically scaled. Mean concentrations of oestradiol ± SEM in ng/ml for the different treatments were: 0.8 ± 0.2 (control), 0.2 ± 0.1 (TNFα), 22.4 ± 6.7 (FSH) and 0.3 ± 0.1 (TNFα + FSH). Corresponding values for progesterone were: 167 ± 29 (control), 187 ± 40 (TNFα), 289 ± 91 (FSH) and 243 ± 63 (TNFα + FSH). Significantly different values (two-way ANOVA with Fisher’s LSD post hoc test, P < 0.05) are indicated by different letters.
