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

open access: yesNature 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.

Implications of oocyte cryostorage for the practice of oocyte donation [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Reproduction, 2012
As the efficiency of oocyte cryopreservation has increased rapidly in recent years, oocytes are currently being stored either in the course of IVF treatments or as a fertility preservation measure. These practices may have an impact on the number of available donor oocytes due to two different dynamics: first, a certain percentage of women for whom ...

In vivo Imaging of oskar mRNA transport reveals the mechanism of posterior localization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
oskar mRNA localization to the posterior of the Drosophila oocyte defines where the abdomen and germ cells form in the embryo. Although this localization requires microtubules and the plus end-directed motor, kinesin, its mechanism is controversial and ...

Improvement of oocyte competence and in vitro oocyte maturation with EGF and IGF-I in Guinea pig model

open access: yes, 2023
2023 Acuerdos transformativos CRUEIn vitro maturation (IVM) system is an alternative method to superovulation protocols to obtain mature oocytes. Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) and Insulin-like Growth Factor I (IGF-I) have been widely used in IVM medium ...

Control of pluripotency during the oocyte-to-embryo transition in caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The germline of Caenorhabditis elegans has been used as a model system to study the control of pluripotency in germ cells: through the mean of a genetic screen, from which most of the results of this thesis derived, different factors involved in the ...

Regulation of fatty acid oxidation in mouse cumulus-oocyte complexes during maturation and modulation by PPAR agonists.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Fatty acid oxidation is an important energy source for the oocyte; however, little is known about how this metabolic pathway is regulated in cumulus-oocyte complexes.
