Lipid droplets in granulosa cells are correlated with reduced pregnancy rates

Journal of Ovarian Research, 2020
Background Lipids are an important source for energy production during oocyte maturation. The accumulation of intracellular lipids binds to proteins to form lipid droplets. This may lead to cellular lipotoxicity. The impact of lipotoxicity on cumulus and

Changes in acetylation of lysine 5 on histone H4 in canine oocytes following in vitro maturation [PDF]

, 2017
Post-translational modifications of histones, such as acetylation, are involved in regulating chromatin remodelling and gene expression. Proper in vitro maturation (IVM) of canine oocytes, for many reasons, is up to now inefficient.

Step-Down of FSH- Dosage During Ovarian Stimulation – Basic Lessons to Be Learnt From a Randomized Controlled Trial

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
A rise in serum progesterone in the late follicular phase is a well described adverse effect of ovarian stimulation for IVF/ICSI. Previous data suggest, that enhanced gonadotropin stimulation causes progesterone elevation and the incidence of premature ...

Supplementation with sunflower seeds in beef cattle did not impact on oocyte and in vitro embryo production [PDF]

, 2018
Supplementation with compounds rich in linoleic acid, including sunflower seed supplementation, promotes increase in conception rates in cows. We aimed to evaluate whether the sunflower seed (linoleic acid source) supplementation in beef donor females ...
