Isolation of female germline stem cells from porcine ovarian tissue and differentiation into oocyte-like cells

open access: yesThe Journal of Reproduction and Development, 2019
Historically, it had been widely accepted that the female mammalian ovary contained a limited number of oocytes that would reduce over time, without the possibility of replenishment. However, recent studies have suggested that female germline stem cells (

Epigenetic impairments in development of parthenogenetic preimplantation mouse embryos

open access: yesThe Journal of Reproduction and Development, 2018
Parthenogenesis is an activation process of oocytes that occur without the participation of sperm. Evidence suggests that normal development of embryos requires proper expression of several imprinted genes inherited from both the paternal and maternal ...

Autophagy: A Key Regulator of Homeostasis and Disease: An Overview of Molecular Mechanisms and Modulators

open access: yesCells, 2022
Autophagy is a highly conserved lysosomal degradation pathway active at basal levels in all cells. However, under stress conditions, such as a lack of nutrients or trophic factors, it works as a survival mechanism that allows the generation of metabolic ...

Cyclopamine, an Antagonist of Hedgehog (Hh) Signaling Pathway, Reduces the Hatching Rate of Parthenogenetic Murine Embryos

open access: yesJournal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2018
Hedgehog (Hh) pathway plays a key role in development from invertebrate to vertebrate. It is known to be involved in cell differentiation, polarity, proliferation, including the development of vertebrate limb and the establishment of flies’ body plan. To

Molecular versatility during pluripotency progression

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
During development the embryo must balance lineage specification against the preservation of plasticity using a limited molecular toolkit. In this Perspective, the authors propose Molecular Versatility as a paradigm for grouping molecular mechanisms that

Enzymatic isolation of porcine preantral follicles impairs oocyte viability and long-term in vitro growth

open access: yesThe Journal of Reproduction and Development
The enzymatic isolation of preantral follicles (PAFs) is considered the most efficient method for retrieving a large number of intact follicles, offering significant advantages in terms of yield and processing time.

Inhibition of Polo-like Kinase 1 Prevents the Male Pronuclear Formation Via Alpha-tubulin Recruiting in In Vivo-fertilized Murine Embryos

open access: yesJournal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2018
Polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1) has been known to be a critical element in cell division including centrosome maturation, cytokinesis and spindle formation in somatic, cancer, and mammalian embryonic cells.
