Oocyte maturation in the toad Rhinella arenarum (Amphibia, Anura): Evidence of cAMP involvement in steroid production and action [PDF]

, 2018
In this work, we describe the participation of the adenylate cyclase/3′-5′-cyclic adenonsine monophosphate (cAMP) pathway in the seasonal follicular secretion of progesterone (P 4 ) and testosterone (T), and its relationship with the maturation of ...

Cryopreservation of equine oocytes: looking into the crystal ball [PDF]

, 2020
In vitro embryo production has evolved rapidly in the horse over the past decade, but blastocyst rates from vitrified equine oocytes remain quite poor and further research is needed to warrant application.

Cdk1 inactivation induces post-anaphase-onset spindle migration and membrane protrusion required for extreme asymmetry in mouse oocytes

Nature Communications, 2018
Female meiotic divisions are asymmetric with the formation of large oocytes and small polar bodies, thought to result from cortical spindle placement before anaphase.

Biosynthesis and expression of zona pellucida glycoproteins in mammals [PDF]

, 2001
The zona pellucida (ZP) is an extracellular matrix surrounding the oocyte and the early embryo that exerts several important functions during fertilization and early embryonic development.

The effect of cadmium on the bovine in vitro oocyte maturation and early embryo development [PDF]

, 2019
Common pollutants such as heavy metals and cadmium is among those with high environmental concerns. In vivo studies had shown that cadmium (Cd) causes oocyte degeneration and embryo mortality, and lowers pregnancy rates in mammals.

Fatty Acid Oxidation and Meiotic Resumption in Mouse Oocytes [PDF]

, 2009
We have examined the potential role of fatty acid oxidation (FAO) in AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-induced meiotic maturation. Etomoxir and malonyl CoA, two inhibitors of carnitine palmitoyl transferase-1 (CPT1), and thus FAO, blocked meiotic ...

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

Freeze/thaw stress induces organelle remodeling and membrane recycling in cryopreserved human mature oocytes [PDF]

, 2016
Purpose: Our aim was to evaluate the ultrastructure of human metaphase II oocytes subjected to slow freezing and fixed after thawing at different intervals during post-thaw rehydration.

The influence of timing of oocytes retrieval and embryo transfer on the IVF-ET outcomes in patients having bilateral salpingectomy due to bilateral hydrosalpinx

Frontiers in Surgery, 2023
ObjectiveThe objective of the study was to investigate whether the sequence of oocyte retrieval and salpingectomy for hydrosalpinx affects pregnancy outcomes of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) patients.Study DesignThere were 1,610 ...
