Pre-maturation with cAMP modulators in conjunction with EGF-like peptides during in vitro maturation enhances mouse oocyte developmental competence [PDF]
Recent studies have independently shown that cyclic adenosine 3'5'-monophosphate (cAMP) modulation prior to in vitro maturation (IVM) and epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like peptide supplementation during IVM improve subsequent oocyte developmental ...

Effect of a GnRH analogue (peforelin) on the litter performance of gilts and sows [PDF]
Background: Maintaining optimal reproductive and litter performance is essential for meeting economic targets in commercial pig production. Treatment with exogenous gonadotropins in sows after weaning or in gilts after altrenogest treatment has been used

Reproductive and Perinatal Outcomes of Embryo Transfer in Elite Hanwoo Cows
Reproductive outcomes following embryo transfer in Elite Hanwoo cows differed by embryo production method. OPU‐IVF was associated with higher abortion, increased birth weight of male calves and greater dystocia risk, whereas MOET resulted in more favourable calving outcomes, highlighting the importance of embryo production strategy and periparturient ...

Glial Cells Missing 1 Regulates Equine Chorionic Gonadotrophin Beta Subunit via Binding to the Proximal Promoter [PDF]
Equine chorionic gonadotrophin (eCG) is a placental glycoprotein critical for early equine pregnancy and used therapeutically in a number of species to support reproductive activity. The factors in trophoblast that transcriptionally regulate eCGβ-subunit

OGT inhibition during in vitro oocyte maturation disrupts epigenetic asymmetry in the zygote. It reduces male pronuclear size and eliminates DNA methylation asymmetry by decreasing H3K9me2‐mediated 5mC protection in the female pronucleus and suppressing TET3‐dependent DNA demethylation in the male pronucleus.

ABSTRACT Many human activities contribute to the pollution of aquatic ecosystems, primarily through agricultural, industrial, mining, and domestic discharges into water bodies. Fish, being highly sensitive to environmental changes, serve as valuable models for monitoring the health of these ecosystems.
