Evaluating Potential Effects of Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla L.) in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Chamomile contains different bioactive agents such as flavonoids and phytosterols with potential anti‐inflammatory, antioxidant, analgesic, antispasmodic, and antitumor characteristics. According to our findings, animal studies have demonstrated the potential benefits of Chamomile consumption in the treatment of PCOS. In contrast, human studies yielded

Zinc Deficiency Disrupts Germ Cell Nest Breakdown During In Vitro Ovary Culture

Molecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 93, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT In mammals, the size of the non‐renewable primordial follicle pool is established before or soon after birth. Primordial follicles, each composed of a single oocyte surrounded by somatic cells, are the only source of gametes during the entire reproductive lifespan of the female.

TFAM‐Mediated mtDNA Replication is Essential for Developmental Competence of In Vitro Grown Oocytes

Reproductive Medicine and Biology, Volume 25, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Mitochondria are essential for oocyte maturation and early embryonic development, supplying ATP and maintaining mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) integrity. During oogenesis, mtDNA undergoes dramatic amplification, but the mechanisms and functional significance of this process remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the role

Autoimmune Thyroid Disease and Female Fertility: Clinical Evidence on Ovarian Reserve, Infertility Treatment Outcomes, and Pathophysiology

Reproductive Medicine and Biology, Volume 25, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
Thyroid autoimmunity may exert a subtle influence on ovarian reserve through complex endocrine and immune mechanisms, with age‐specific variation. Although AMH alterations are observed, their clinical relevance for primary ovarian insufficiency, fertility, and treatment outcomes of assisted reproduction remains unclear, highlighting the need for ...

The Role of Anethole in Reproductive Physiology and In Vitro Biotechnologies—A Review

Reproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT In vitro reproductive biotechnologies show promise for fertility preservation but still face challenges, including oxidative stress from high oxygen tension, which impairs cell viability and development. Antioxidants have been widely explored to attenuate oxidative stress during culture.

Development of antral follicles after xenografting of isolated small human preantral follicles

Reproductive BioMedicine Online, 2008
Small human pre-antral follicles can be enzymatically isolated from the surrounding stroma, and are able to survive after 7 days of xenografting. The aim of the present study was to assess the developmental capacity of enzymatically isolated human follicles after long-term xenografting to severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice.

Canine preantral follicles cultured with various concentrations of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)

Theriogenology, 2010
The objective was to evaluate the effects of various concentrations of exogenous FSH during in vitro culture of isolated canine preantral follicles. Preantral secondary follicles (>200 microm) were isolated by microdissection and cultured for 18 d in supplemented alpha-Minimum Essential Medium (alpha-MEM).
