Obesity Induces Ovarian Inflammation and Reduces Oocyte Quality.
Reproduction, 2019 In the US, 36.5 percent of women between the ages of 20-39 are obese. This obesity results in not only metabolic disorders including type II diabetes and cardiovascular disease, but also impaired female fertility.

Reorganization, specialization, and degradation of oocyte maternal components for early development
Reproductive Medicine and Biology, 2023 Background Oocyte components are maternally provided, solely determine oocyte quality, and coordinately determine embryo quality with zygotic gene expression.

Aspects of follicular and oocyte maturation that affect the developmental potential of embryos.
Journal of reproduction and fertility. Supplement, 2019 The ability to mature, be fertilized and finally to develop into a viable embryo is acquired gradually by the oocyte during progressive differentiation throughout folliculogenesis.

GGPP-Mediated Protein Geranylgeranylation in Oocyte Is Essential for the Establishment of Oocyte-Granulosa Cell Communication and Primary-Secondary Follicle Transition in Mouse Ovary. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2017 Folliculogenesis is a progressive and highly regulated process, which is essential to provide ova for later reproductive life, requires the bidirectional communication between the oocyte and granulosa cells.

Glycolytic metabolites are critical modulators of oocyte maturation and viability. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The maturation of an oocyte into an egg is a key step in preparation for fertilization. In Xenopus, oocyte maturation is independent of transcription, being regulated at the level of translation and post-translational modifications of proteins.

Human Reproduction, 1998 Primary oocytes recovered from small and growing follicles of > or = 3 mm in the ovaries of untreated women, can be matured in vitro, will fertilize and develop in vitro, and when transferred to the patient, develop to term. However, the implantation rate of cleaved embryos has been disappointingly low and when embryos are allowed to develop beyond the

The art of oocyte meiotic arrest regulation
Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2019 A central dogma of mammalian reproductive biology is that the size of the primordial follicle pool represents reproductive capacity in females. The assembly of the primordial follicle starts after the primordial germ cells (PGCs)-derived oocyte releases ...
