Cells, 2021 Cumulus cells (CCs) originating from undifferentiated granulosa cells (GCs) differentiate in mural granulosa cells (MGCs) and CCs during antrum formation in the follicle by the distribution of location. CCs are supporting cells of the oocyte that protect

The Role of Oocyte Organelles in Determining Developmental Competence
Biology, 2017 The ability of an oocyte to undergo successful cytoplasmic and nuclear maturation, fertilization and embryo development is referred to as the oocyte’s quality or developmental competence.

Isolation and in vitro Culture of Mouse Oocytes
Bio-Protocol, 2021 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 ...

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 ObjectiveHyperlipidemia are common polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)-related metabolic dysfunctions and can adversely affect assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) cycles. The objective of this study

A PP2A-B56—Centered View on Metaphase-to-Anaphase Transition in Mouse Oocyte Meiosis I
Cells, 2020 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
Life Science Alliance, 2023 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 ...
