DHT implantation alters the miRNAs levels in both plasma and ovarian granulosa cells of the rats in both groups. A) Specific microRNA levels in the plasma of the rats in both groups. B) Specific microRNA levels in the ovarian granulosa cells of the rats in both groups. For the plasma samples, the data represent means for n = 12 samples, with 4 rats randomly selected from each group for each of three replicates. For the granulosa cell samples, the data represent means for n = 4 (control group) and n = 5 (PCOS group) samples, with granulosa cells pooled from 4–5 rats per sample. Asterisks denote statistically significant differences in gene expression relative to the control group (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01)
