Investigating developmental characteristics of biopsied blastocysts stratified by mitochondrial copy numbers using time-lapse monitoring

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology
Background For in vitro fertilization (IVF), mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) levels in the trophectodermal (TE) cells of biopsied blastocysts have been suggested to be associated with the cells’ developmental potential. However, scholars have reached differing

Engineered endothelium provides angiogenic and paracrine stimulus to grafted human ovarian tissue

Scientific Reports, 2017
Despite major advances in tissue cryopreservation and auto-transplantation, reperfusion ischemia and hypoxia have been reported as major obstacles to successful recovery of the follicular pool within grafted ovarian tissue.

Infection Control Practices for Vascular Access Management in Hemodialysis: Results From a Nationwide Survey of Japanese National University Hospitals

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

Extended blastocyst culture improves DNA yield in non-invasive preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy but diagnostic specificity remains limited

Scientific Reports
Non-invasive preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (niPGT-A), which analyzes cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from spent culture media (SCM), has emerged as a proposed alternative to trophectoderm (TE) biopsy in in vitro fertilization (IVF).

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Associations between the artificial intelligence scoring system and live birth outcomes in preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy cycles

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology
Background Several studies have demonstrated that iDAScore is more accurate in predicting pregnancy outcomes in cycles without preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) compared to KIDScore and the Gardner criteria.

Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) as a Predictor of Ovarian Response to Clomiphene Citrate in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

Fertility & Reproduction, 2021
Background: Serum Anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are two- to threefold higher than in ovulatory women with normal ovaries, corresponding to the two- to threefold increase in the number of small ...

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.
