Isolation and in vitro Culture of Mouse Oocytes
Females are endowed at birth with a fixed reserve of oocytes, which declines both in quantity and quality with advancing age. Understanding the molecular mechanisms regulating oocyte quality is crucial for improving the chances of pregnancy success in ...

Interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer is dependent on compatible mitochondrial DNA and reprogramming factors [PDF]
Interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT) involves the transfer of a nucleus or cell from one species into the cytoplasm of an enucleated oocyte from another.

Summary: Inactivation of cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1), controlled by cyclin B1 proteolysis, orders events during mitotic exit. Here, we used a FRET biosensor to study Cdk1 activity while simultaneously monitoring anaphase II and pronuclear (PN ...

Cryopreservation of human oocytes has been employed with little success in clinical practice, even though it may solve the legal and ethical problems linked to embryo freezing. Various attempts to cryopreserve human oocytes have mostly been unsuccessful, leading to low oocyte survival rates after thawing, and the search for an optimal protocol for ...

A PP2A-B56—Centered View on Metaphase-to-Anaphase Transition in Mouse Oocyte Meiosis I
Meiosis is required to reduce to haploid the diploid genome content of a cell, generating gametes—oocytes and sperm—with the correct number of chromosomes.

Filopodia-like protrusions of adjacent somatic cells shape the developmental potential of oocytes
Filopodia-like protrusions sent by the somatic cells to the oocyte play a role in the structural integrity of the germline–somatic complex, and regulate gene expression in the oocyte and thus its developmental potential and chances to produce a viable ...
