Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.This study delineates the early sex differentiation timeline in the northern snakehead (Channa argus). These findings provide a foundation for future sex‐control breeding in this economically important species. ABSTRACT The northern snakehead (Channa argus) is an economically important aquaculture species in China.

A simple method for assessing hyaluronic acid production by cumulus-oocyte complexes
Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2016 The cumulus expansion of cumulus-oocyte complex (COC) is an essential regulating process of oocyte maturation and as such it is a possible biomarker of the in vitro maturing oocytes quality.

Both diet and gene mutation induced obesity affect oocyte quality in mice
Scientific Reports, 2016 Obesity was shown to cause reproductive dysfunctions such as reduced conception, infertility and early pregnancy loss. However, the possible effects of obesity on oocyte quality are still not fully understood. In this study we investigated the effects of

Biomaterial design strategies for enhancing mitochondrial transplantation therapy
BMEMat, EarlyView.Biomaterials to facilitate mitochondrial transplantation therapy: biomaterials as barriers to protect mitochondria from pathophysiological microenvironments, like osmotic stress caused by the excessive concentration of calcium ion, reactive oxygen species, and advanced glycation end products; biomaterials integrating with biochemical cues to improve ...

Reproductive BioMedicine Online, 2002 This paper describes the technical approach to treatment of age-related oocyte aneuploidy. Although one solution can be oocyte/embryo selection, another is represented by the nuclear transplantation procedure. The efficiency of nuclear transplantation into immature oocytes is described as a way of generating embryos, and the possibility that viable ...

ChemistryEurope, EarlyView.Following the Danube Flow. The first total syntheses of highly brominated rubrolides T, U, and U‐analog, together with the efficient and divergent syntheses of rubrolides A, D, and P. The dibrominated key intermediate, obtained via a Suzuki‐Miyaura cross‐coupling reaction, is the centerpiece of the synthesis.

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...

Ontogeny of RSPO1, FOXL2, and RUNX1 during ovarian differentiation in the marsupial tammar wallaby
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background RSPO1 and FOXL2 are female sex‐determining genes involved in the differentiation and organization of the ovary in some eutherian mammals. Mutations or loss of function of these genes are associated with partial to full sex reversal in mice, humans, and goats.
