Neurotensin induces sustainable activation of the ErbB–ERK1/2 pathway, which is required for developmental competence of oocytes in mice

Abstract Purpose LH induces the expression of EGF‐like factors and their shedding enzyme (ADAM17) in granulosa cells (GCs), which is essential for ovulation via activation of the ErbB–ERK1/2 pathway in cumulus cells (CCs). Neurotensin (NTS) is reported as a novel regulator of ovulation, whereas the...
