Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019 Background: Prior studies have shown that patients with a >10% estradiol (E2) rise after trigger had more oocytes retrieved than plateauing or decreasing E2 responders.

Nonequilibrium dissipation in living oocytes [PDF]
EPL 116, 30008 (2016), 2015 Living organisms are inherently out-of-equilibrium systems. We employ new developments in stochastic energetics and rely on a minimal microscopic model to predict the amount of mechanical energy dissipated by such dynamics. Our model includes complex rheological effects and nonequilibrium stochastic forces.

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019 Mammalian oocytes and early embryos derived from in vitro production are highly susceptible to a variety of cellular stresses. During oocyte maturation and preimplantation embryo development, functional proteins must be folded properly in the endoplasmic

Is there an optimal timing interval between hCG trigger and oocyte vitrification?
Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2022 Objective: Oocyte vitrification has been developed as a promising alternative to slow freezing; however, the clinical outcome is highly operator dependent.

Bulletin of the National Research Centre, 2023 Background The developmental competence of oocyte derived from in vitro maturation (IVM) is significantly lower than those of oocyte matured in vivo. Rapamycin is an immunosuppressive substance and widely used to prolong the survival and preserve the ...

Impact of stress on oocyte quality and reproductive outcome
Journal of Biomedical Sciences, 2016 Stress is an important factor that affects physical and mental status of a healthy person disturbing homeostasis of the body. Changes in the lifestyle are one of the major causes that lead to psychological stress.

Follicular fluid content and oocyte quality: from single biochemical markers to metabolomics
Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2009 The assessment of oocyte quality in human in vitro fertilization (IVF) is getting increasing attention from embryologists. Oocyte selection and the identification of the best oocytes, in fact, would help to limit embryo overproduction and to improve the ...

A novel mechanism of bulk cytoplasmic transport by cortical dynein in Drosophila ovary
eLife, 2022 Cytoplasmic dynein, a major minus-end directed microtubule motor, plays essential roles in eukaryotic cells. Drosophila oocyte growth is mainly dependent on the contribution of cytoplasmic contents from the interconnected sister cells, nurse cells.

Regulation of Mammalian Oocyte Meiosis by Intercellular Communication Within the Ovarian Follicle.
Annual Review of Physiology, 2017 Meiotic progression in mammalian preovulatory follicles is controlled by the granulosa cells around the oocyte. Cyclic GMP (cGMP) generated in the granulosa cells diffuses through gap junctions into the oocyte, maintaining meiotic prophase arrest ...
