Issues of biomedically assisted fertilization before the European Court of Human Rights [PDF]
The development of biomedicine has led to the birth of the first test-tube baby in 1978, and that event gave enormous impetus for further development of biomedically assisted fertilization, but also for the development of supporting legislation ...

#338 : Insights into the Zona-Pellucida Mediated Selection of Fertilization-Competent Spermatozoa
Background and Aims: Human zona pellucida (ZP) selectively interacts with high-quality spermatozoa characterized by superior morphology and normal chromatin structure to achieve fertilization. Human ejaculate contains millions of spermatozoa with varying

Zinc protection of fertilized eggs is an ancient feature of sexual reproduction in animals.
One of the earliest and most prevalent barriers to successful reproduction is polyspermy, or fertilization of an egg by multiple sperm. To prevent these supernumerary fertilizations, eggs have evolved multiple mechanisms.

LYZL6, an acidic, bacteriolytic, human sperm-related protein, plays a role in fertilization. [PDF]
Lysozyme-like proteins (LYZLs) belong to the c-type lysozyme/α-lactalbumin family and are selectively expressed in the mammalian male reproductive tract.

Expression and potential roles of HLA-G in human spermatogenesis and early embryonic development. [PDF]
As one of the non-classical major histocompatibility complex(MHC)-1 antigens, Human Leukocyte Antigen G (HLA-G), has been suggested as a prognostic marker to identify the embryo developmental potential. In the present study, we investigated the potential

Spatial dynamics of mTOR pathway activity during bovine embryo development
The mTOR pathway regulates cell proliferation, growth, survival, and metabolism by integrating nutritional and growth factor signaling. In embryos, its activity is influenced by the availability of nutrients in the culture medium, and it can affect the ...
