Abstract
Follicular fluid can induce cell proliferation and DNA damage accumulation in cultured fallopian epithelial cells. Increased expression of APOBEC3A, a known DNA mutator, may explain the high incidence of DNA damage after FF exposure. The role of Apobec3a in ovulation-induced inflammation warrants further investigation.
