Skin-derived dendritic cells acquire and degrade the scrapie agent following in vitro exposure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The accumulation of the scrapie agent in lymphoid tissues following inoculation via the skin is critical for efficient neuroinvasion, but how the agent is initially transported from the skin to the draining lymph node is not known. Langerhans cells (LCs)

In Vitro Maturation, In Vitro Oogenesis, and Ovarian Longevity

open access: yesReproductive Sciences, 2023
AbstractThis paper will review a remarkable new approach to in vitro maturation “IVM” of oocytes from ovarian tissue, based on our results with in vitro oogenesis from somatic cells. As an aside benefit we also have derived a better understanding of ovarian longevity from ovary transplant. We have found that primordial follicle recruitment is triggered

In vitro fertilisation in domestic mammals—a brief overview

open access: yesUpsala Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020
Many factors influence the final oocyte maturation, fertilisation, and early embryo development, and there are both similarities and differences between species. When comparing the advancement of assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs), the development

Polymorphisms in Gag spacer peptide 1 confer varying levels of resistance to the HIV-1 maturation inhibitor bevirimat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: The maturation inhibitor bevirimat (BVM) potently inhibits human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) replication by blocking capsid-spacer peptide 1 (CA-SP1) cleavage. Recent clinical trials demonstrated that a significant proportion of HIV-

The boosting effects of melatonin on the expression of related genes to oocyte maturation and antioxidant pathways: a polycystic ovary syndrome- mouse model

open access: yesJournal of Ovarian Research, 2022
Background Melatonin, as a free radical scavenger exhibiting genomic actions, regulates the antioxidant genes expression and apoptosis mechanisms. In polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients, an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants in ...

Citrus/Cydonia Comp. Can Restore the Immunological Balance in Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis-Related Immunological Parameters In Vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In two in vitro studies, we examined the immunological (pathways of the) effects of Citrus/Cydonia comp. from, respectively, a healthy and an allergic donor; peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated out of peripheral blood and analyzed in

In vitro developmental competence of prepubertal goat oocytes cultured with recombinant activin-A

open access: yesAnimal, 2014
The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of activin-A during the in vitro oocyte maturation (IVM) and in vitro embryo culture (IVC) on nuclear maturation, blastocyst yield and blastocyst quality of prepubertal goat oocytes.

Beneficial Effects of Catalpol Supplementation during In Vitro Maturation of Porcine Cumulus-Oocyte Complexes

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Oxidative stress degrades oocytes during in vitro maturation (IVM). Catalpol, a well-known iridoid glycoside, exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antihyperglycemic effects. In this study, catalpol supplementation was tested on porcine oocyte IVM
