Recent advances of the egg\'s freezing: An overview
Journal of Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, 2018 It is now more than three decades since the first live birth from oocyte cryopreservation. At present, oocyte cryopreservation has become a major component of Assisted Reproductive technologies (ART).

Regulation of the G2/M Transition in Rodent Oocytes [PDF]
, 2010 Regulation of maturation in meiotically competent mammalian oocytes is a complex process involving the carefully coordinated exchange of signals between the somatic and germ cell compartments of the ovarian follicle via paracrine and cell–cell coupling ...

Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We investigated associations between maternal grandparents' age and autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in grandchildren, exploring differences by race/ethnicity. In a multigenerational California birth cohort study including 1,743,998 and 1,630,722 mother–child pairs (with 27,975 and 25,816 ASD cases, respectively), we examined ASD risk by ...

Protein-carbohydrate interactions during fertilization [PDF]
, 1998 Interaction between gametes during fertilization is at least in part regulated by carbohydrate moieties of the zona pellucida (ZP) and carbohydrate binding proteins of the sperm surface. This review focuses on the protein-carbohydrate interactions during

Advances in methodologies for quantifying protein–protein interactions in living cells
Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.Measuring the binding affinities of protein–protein interactions (PPIs) is important for understanding underlying biological mechanisms. As methods for studying PPIs differ between in vitro and in‐cell conditions due to environmental differences, it is crucial to stay informed about recent trends and methodologies in both experimental contexts ...

Annual fecundity, batch fecundity, and oocyte atresia of Atka mackerel (Pleurogrammus monopterygius) in Alaskan waters [PDF]
, 2007 Annual potential fecundity, batch fecundity, and oocyte atresia were estimated for Atka mackerel (Pleurogrammus monopterygius) collected in Alaskan waters during 1993−94.

Responsiveness of bovine cumulus-oocyte-complexes (COC) to porcine and recombinant human FSH, and the effect of COC quality on gonadotropin receptor and Cx43 marker gene mRNAs during maturation in vitro [PDF]
, 2003 Substantially less development to the blastocyst stage occurs in vitro than in vivo and this may be due to deficiencies in oocyte competence. Although a large proportion of bovine oocytes undergo spontaneous nuclear maturation, less is known about ...

PLK4: Master Regulator of Centriole Duplication and Its Therapeutic Potential
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Centrosomes catalyze the assembly of a microtubule‐based bipolar spindle, essential for the precise chromosome segregation during cell division. At the center of this process lies Polo‐Like Kinase 4 (PLK4), the master regulator that controls the duplication of the centriolar core to ensure the correct balance of two centrosomes per dividing ...

The effect of temperature on the duration of spawning markers—migratory-nucleus and hydrated oocytes and postovulatory follicles—in the multiple-batch spawner Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) [PDF]
, 2011 The duration of spawning markers (e.g. signs of previous or imminent spawnings) is essential information for estimating spawning frequency of fish. In this study, the effect of temperature on the duration of spawning markers (i.e., oocytes at early ...
