Plasma and follicular fluid osteopontin levels during ovarian cycle and their correlation with follicular fluid vascular endothelial growth factor levels

Abstract Osteopontin (OPN) is a multifunctional secreted glycoprotein. We evaluated OPN concentrations in blood and follicular fluid (FF) during the ovarian cycle and their relationship with the production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which is involved in the pathophysiology of ovar...
