Forkhead box L2 (FOXL2) is an indispensable key regulator of female follicular development, and it plays important roles in the morphogenesis, proliferation, and differentiation of follicle granulosa cells (GCs), such as establishing normal estradiol signaling and regulating steroid hormone synthesis. Nevertheless, the effects of FOXL2 on GC morphology and the underlying mechanism remain unknown. Using FOXL2 ChIP-seq analysis, we found that FOXL2 target genes significantly enriched in the actin cytoskeleton-related pathways. We confirmed that FOXL2 inhibited the expression of RhoA, a key gene for actin cytoskeleton rearrangement, by binding to TCATCCATCTCT in RhoA promoter region. In addition, the overexpression of FOXL2 in GCs induced the depolymerization of F-actin and the disordered of the actin filaments, resulting in a slowdown in the expansion of GCs, while silencing FOXL2 inhibited F-actin depolymerization and stabilized the actin filaments, thereby accelerating GC expansion. RhoA/ROCK pathway inhibitor Y-27632 exhibited similar effects to FOXL2 overexpression, even reversed the actin polymerization in FOXL2 silencing GCs. This study revealed for the first time that FOXL2 regulated GC actin cytoskeleton by RhoA/ROCK pathway, thus affecting GC expansion. Our findings provide new insights for constructing the regulatory network of FOXL2 and propose a potential mechanism for facilitating rapid follicle expansion, thereby laying a foundation for further understanding follicular development.
