Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Evaluation of comparison of clinical outcome treated oocyte with ionomycin and strontium chloride in infertile couple with previous failed in vitro fertilization

Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ’Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Shahīd Ṣadūqī Yazd, 2019
Introduction: Several factors are involved in failed fertilization following intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), which could be related to sperm, oocyte factors and/or both.

Artificial Meiotic Arrest and Parthenogenetic Activation of Buffalo Oocytes Using Cycloheximide

CYTOLOGIA, 2007
Maintaining oocytes at germinal vesicle (GV) stage without damaging their quality would allow synchronization of maturation and homogenization of the oocyte population. Activation of the oocyte is very important for a number of oocyte or embryo related technologies including intracytoplasmic sperm injection and cloning by nuclear transfer.

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

Lower developmental potential of rat zygotes produced by ooplasmic injection of testicular spermatozoa versus cauda epididymal spermatozoa

The Journal of Reproduction and Development
Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is clinically used to treat obstructive/nonobstructive azoospermia. This study compared the efficacy of ICSI with cauda epididymal and testicular sperm in Wistar (WI) and Brown-Norway (BN) rats.

Use of retinoids during oocyte maturation diminishes apoptosis in caprine embryos [PDF]

, 2015
Exposure of caprine oocytes and embryos to retinoids enhances embryonic development, but the mechanisms governing this phenomenon have not been characterised.
