RSPO2 Coordinates with GDF9:BMP15 Heterodimers to Promote Granulosa Cell and Oocyte Development in Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
RSPO2 and GDF9:BMP15 heterodimers—core components of oocyte‐secreted factors (OSFs)—coordinate to shape the molecular architecture of preantral granulosa cells via gene‐specific synergistic and antagonistic regulation, mediated through CTNNB1–SMAD2 signaling crosstalk.

Intermediate Filament Protein BFSP1 Maintains Oocyte Asymmetric Division by Modulating Spindle Length

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Different from mitosis, the female meiosis undergoes asymmetric division that produces haploid oocytes and polar body, which is essential for retaining maternal components to support subsequent fertilization and embryo development. However, the underlying mechanisms are still largely unknown.

A Novel Cranial Bone Transport Technique Repairs Skull Defect and Minimizes Brain Injury Outcome in Traumatic Brain Injury Rats

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel, safe, and effective surgical technique: Cranial bone transport (CBT) to improve traumatic brain injury (TBI) outcomes in rats. CBT significantly accelerated skull defect bone repair in addition to its promoting effects on neurological function recovery. This work provides an alternative therapy for patients suffering from

Intra-ejaculate sperm selection in female zebra finches [PDF]

, 2016
Among internal fertilizers, typically fewer than 1% sperm survive the journey through the oviduct. Several studies suggest that the sperm reaching the ovum-the 'fertilizing set'-comprise a non-random sub-population, but the characteristics of this group ...

Feeding of the Arctic ctenophore Mertensia ovum in the Baltic Sea: evidence of the use of microbial prey

, 2014
Since its first reported appearance in the Baltic Sea in 2007, there has been a little research on the role of the Arctic ctenophore Mertensia ovum in this ecosystem. We provide results from the first feeding experiments of M.
