Regulation of oocyte maturation in fish

Development Growth and Differentiation, 2008
A period of oocyte growth is followed by a process called oocyte maturation (the resumption of meiosis) which occurs prior to ovulation and is a prerequisite for successful fertilization. Our studies using fish models have revealed that oocyte maturation is a three‐step induction process involving gonadotropin (LH), maturation‐inducing hormone (MIH ...

Mouse oocyte maturation: How similar is it to frog oocyte maturation?

open access: yes, 2013
In this study, I have attempted to address the similarities/differences between amphibian and mouse oocytes by focusing on two aspects of mouse oocyte maturation. In the first project, I investigated the ability of several antagonists of serotonin receptors to initiate follicle-enclosed mouse oocytes to undergo maturation.

Oocyte Competence Biomarkers Associated With Oocyte Maturation: A Review [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Oocyte developmental competence is one of the determining factors that influence the outcomes of an IVF cycle regarding the ability of a female gamete to reach maturation, be fertilized, and uphold an embryonic development up until the blastocyst ...

Oocyte Maturation

Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2000
The oocyte is dependent on granulosa cells to provide nutrients and regulatory signals. Granulosa cells must be at the appropriate stage of differentiation to initiate these signals and transmit them to the oocyte. Studies have shown that in vitro-matured oocytes from follicles in early stages of atresia are more competent to support embryonic ...

Maturation of Oocytes in Vitro

Annual Review of Animal Biosciences, 2016
Only a fraction of oocytes present in the ovaries at birth are ever ovulated during the lifetime of a female mammal. In vitro maturation (IVM) offers the possibility to exploit what is a largely untapped biological resource. Although IVM is used routinely for the in vitro production of embryos in domestic species, especially cattle, its clinical use ...

In Vitro Maturation of Oocytes

Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2005
In vitro maturation of oocytes is a safe and effective treatment offered in some fertility centers for assisted reproduction, where immature oocytes are retrieved from unstimulated ovaries. Therefore, the procedure avoids ovarian stimulation with expensive gonadotropins, side effects of the medications, and risks such as ovarian hyperstimulation ...

The Regulation of Oocyte Maturation

2003
Publisher Summary This chapter reviews the signaling networks bringing about oocyte maturation of different species, emphasizing significant variability among animals at almost every level. The final development of fertilization competence of an oocyte—responsible for making it a fertilizable egg—usually occurs during the process of meiosis and is ...
