Treatment option for sperm- or oocyte-related fertilization failure: assisted oocyte activation following diagnostic heterologous ICSI.
BACKGROUND Failed fertilization occurs in 2-3% of ICSI cycles and is mainly due to lack of oocyte activation. Heterologous ICSI of patient's sperm in mouse oocytes allows discrimination between sperm- and oocyte-related aetiologies of activation failure. Assisted oocyte activation (AOA) by Ca-ionophore treatment can initiate fertilization in subsequent therapeutic ICSI. We report on diagnosis a...
متن کاملSuccessful fertilization and pregnancy following ICSI and electrical oocyte activation.
In a total of 1048 intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles, motile spermatozoa from four out of 424 patients (0.9%) failed to fertilize oocytes, despite an apparently successful ICSI procedure. No activation was observed in these injected oocytes. The spermatozoa from three of the four patients were injected into unfertilized mouse oocytes by ICSI (mouse test) to evaluate their oocyte ac...
متن کاملFertilization failure and oocyte activation.
Recent reports have suggested that when unfertilized oocytes with a spermatozoon after intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) are properly activated, the activated oocytes develop normally similar to fertilized oocytes. However, human oocytes do not easily respond to universal activators of mammalian oocytes like ethanol or calcium ionophore A23187, which induce a calcium transient in ooplasm....
متن کاملDifferentiation Between the Effect of Protamine Deficiency and Failed Oocyte Activation on Fertilization Post ICSI
Sperm premature chromosomal condensaion (PCC) and failed oocyte activation are considered to result in failed fertilization post intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Recent studies also suggested that sperm protamine deficiency may induce PCC. The ain of this study was to assess the effect of failed oocyte activation and protamine deficiency on failed ferilization post ICSI and to indicate ...
متن کاملEffects of assisted oocyte activation with calcium- ionophore and strontium chloride on in vitro ICSI outcomes
Objective(s): Failed fertilization after intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is mainly attributed to failed oocyte activation and can be overcome by artificial oocyte activation (AOA). The present study aims to compare in vitro outcomes of ICSI following two different assisted oocyte activation chemical procedures (SrCl2 and Ionomycin) in sibling oocytes of ICSI candidates.Materials and Me...
