Effect of different cryopreservation extenders added with antioxidants on semen quality and in vitro embryo production efficiency in cattle

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
To evaluate the addition of antioxidants in extenders on post-thaw bovine semen quality and in vitro embryo production efficiency. Six semen samples were collected from five Holstein bulls. In the experiment I, the samples were diluted with AndroMed® and

A spontaneous increase in intracellular Ca2+ in metaphase II human oocytes in vitro can be prevented by drugs targeting ATP-sensitive K+ channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
STUDY QUESTION: Could drugs targeting ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channels prevent any spontaneous increase in intracellular Ca2+ that may occur in human metaphase II (MII) oocytes under in vitro conditions?

The ovulation assessment of regular cyclic rats following subacute oral administration of monosodium glutamate: An in vivo study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacy & Pharmacognosy Research, 2022
Context: The possible toxic effects of monosodium glutamate (MSG) on ovarian functions have not been thoroughly evaluated in contrast to testicular functions. Few studies documented that MSG showed histological alterations.

cAMP Pulsing of Denuded Mouse Oocytes Increases Meiotic Resumption Via Activation of AMP-activated Protein Kinase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
cAMP plays a critical role in the control of oocyte maturation, as a high level of cAMP maintains oocyte arrest at the first meiotic prophase. Yet this study shows that pulsing meiotically arrested denuded oocytes (DO) with cAMP induces oocyte maturation

Ovarian ageing: the role of mitochondria in oocytes and follicles.

open access: yesHuman Reproduction Update, 2016
BACKGROUND There is a great inter-individual variability of ovarian ageing, and almost 20% of patients consulting for infertility show signs of premature ovarian ageing.

Metformin promotes in vitro maturation of oocytes from aged mice by attenuating mitochondrial oxidative stress via SIRT3-dependent SOD2ac

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Human female fecundity decreases irreversibly as chronological age rises, adversely affecting oocyte quality, consequently worsening pregnancy outcomes and increasing the extent of birth defects.

AMPK Regulation of Mouse Oocyte Meiotic Resumption in Vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We have previously shown that the adenosine analog 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-d-ribofuranoside (AICAR), an activator of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), stimulates an increase in AMPK activity and induces meiotic resumption in mouse oocytes ...

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 stage.

Suppression of Chemically Induced and Spontaneous Mouse Oocyte Activation by AMP-Activated Protein Kinase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Oocyte activation is an important process triggered by fertilization that initiates embryonic development. However, parthenogenetic activation can occur either spontaneously or with chemical treatments.
