Mechanical Egg Activation and Rearing of First Instar Larvae of Sirex noctilio (Hymenoptera: Siricidae)

open access: yesInsects, 2023
Egg activation is a cellular transition of an arrested mature oocyte into a developing embryo through a coordinated series of events. Previous studies in Hymenoptera have indicated that mechanical pressure can induce egg activation.

MAP3Kinase-dependent SnRK2-kinase activation is required for abscisic acid signal transduction and rapid osmotic stress response. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Abiotic stresses, including drought and salinity, trigger a complex osmotic-stress and abscisic acid (ABA) signal transduction network. The core ABA signalling components are snf1-related protein kinase2s (SnRK2s), which are activated by ABA-triggered ...

The role of nitric oxide in parthenogenetic activation of pig oocytes: A review

open access: yesCzech Journal of Animal Science, 2007
Parthenogenetic activation of mammalian oocytes with artificial stimuli is commonly applied in various reproductive biotechniques, e.g. cloning using nuclear transfer. For this reason, many studies focus on oocyte activation in vitro.

Action of the Metalloproteinases in Gonadal Remodeling during Sex Reversal in the Sequential Hermaphroditism of the Teleostei Fish Synbranchus marmoratus (Synbranchiformes: Synbranchidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Teleostei present great plasticity regarding sex change. During sex reversal, the whole gonadincluding the germinal epithelium undergoes significant changes, remodeling, and neoformation.However, there is no information on the changes that occur within ...

Ca2+ dynamics in oocytes from naturally-aged mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The ability of human metaphase-II arrested eggs to activate following fertilisation declines with advancing maternal age. Egg activation is triggered by repetitive increases in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in the ooplasm as a result of ...

Gold nanoparticles improve the embryonic developmental competency of artificially activated mouse oocytes.

open access: yesVeterinary research forum : an international quarterly journal, 2021
Currently, artificial oocyte activation has attracted wide attention in assisted reproduction due to extensive range of applications, particularly in somatic cell nuclear transfer and deriving pluripotent stem cell lines and it is the unique model to determine the role of paternal genome.

TRPV3 Channels Mediate Strontium-Induced Mouse-Egg Activation

open access: yesCell Reports, 2013
In mammals, calcium influx is required for oocyte maturation and egg activation. The molecular identities of the calcium-permeant channels that underlie the initiation of embryonic development are not established.

Efficacy of Calcium Chloride Dihydrate Supplementation at ICSI on Patient Outcomes

open access: yesFertility & Reproduction, 2022
Background: ICSI typically results in fertilisation rates of >65% however patients may still have low or no fertilisation despite the oocyte and sperm quality appearing normal.

Early epigenetic reprogramming in fertilized, cloned, and parthenogenetic embryos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Despite ongoing research in a number of species, the efficiency of embryo production by nuclear transfer remains low. Incomplete epigenetic reprogramming of the nucleus introduced in the recipient oocyte is one factor proposed to limit the success of ...

A loss-of-function variant in SSFA2 causes male infertility with globozoospermia and failed oocyte activation

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2022
Globozoospermia (OMIM: 102530) is a rare type of teratozoospermia ( A; p.R1224Q) in the patient. This variant significantly reduced the protein expression of SSFA2.
