LC3-II was associated with punctate structures in granulosa cells cultured in serum-starved conditions alone (SC, top), but LC3-I had a diffuse expression pattern in the serum-starved granulosa cells treated with 3-methyladenine (3-MA, middle). The presence of punctate structures of LC3-II progressively increased in the serum-starved granulosa cells treated with bafilomycine A1 (Baf A1, bottom).
