Oocyte-derived forms of ruminant BMP15 and GDF9 and a theoretical model to explain their synergistic response [PDF]
Bone morphogenetic factor 15 (BMP15) and growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) are two oocyte-secreted factors with well documented effects on ovarian follicular development and ovulation-rate.

Calcitonin‐like diuretic hormone influences reproduction in adult female Rhodnius prolixus
Highlights • CT/DH‐like immunoreactivity is present in female reproductive tissues • CT/DH receptor transcripts are expressed in the fat body and ovaries • RNAi knockdown of CT/DH receptors reduces egg number and hatching rate • Rhopr‐CT/DH increases RhoprVg1 and RhoprVgR expression in ovaries in vitro • Rhopr‐CT/DH stimulates oviduct contractions in a

Impact of xenotransplantation of sheep ovarian cortex and follicular fluid- enriched SMART medium on the morphology of recovered of sheep oocyte [PDF]
Ovarian follicles and cortical tissue can survive viable after ovariectomy and use successfully for xenotransplantation or in vitro maturation. This study designed to assess in vitro maturation (IVM) of sheep oocytes recovered from immature follicles ...

LsFAMeT and LsJHAMT coordinate JH biosynthesis to regulate fecundity in Laodelphax striatellus
The small brown planthopper (SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus, can trigger large‐scale outbreaks when encountering suitable habitats during migration due to their strong reproductive ability. This study investigated the role of juvenile hormone (JH) in regulating SBPH reproduction.

Stereological study of organelle distribution in human mature oocytes
The ultrastructure of human oocytes has been described only qualitatively. To offer a precise organelle spatial distribution and organelle volume during the main maturation stages, we previously conducted stereological studies on prophase-I (GV) and ...

Enhanced in vitro maturation of canine oocytes by oviduct epithelial cell co-culture.
Canine-assisted reproductive techniques have been successful for several years; however, the lack of an oocyte in vitro maturation system has limited their application.

Integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analyses were used to validate gonadal development–related genes and to identify a sex‐specific molecular marker in Hucho bleekeri. ABSTRACT Sex determination and differentiation represent fundamental topics in reproductive biology. Sichuan taimen (Hucho bleekeri), a first‐class national protected fish species in
