چکیده

It is demonstrated that the microinjection of cytoplasm from competent, fully grown oocytes can induce germinal vesicle breakdown in meiotically incompetent growing oocytes. Injection of cytoplasm from oocytes at methaphase I had a similar effect. The maturation in injected growing oocytes was arrested at the premetaphase or metaphase I stage. Induction of germinal vesicle breakdown by cytoplasm microinjection occurs in a dose-dependent manner.

P-90: Effect of Phosphodiesterase Type3 Inhibitor, Cilostamide, on The Developmental Competence of Ovine OocytesIsolated by Glucose 6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Activity

Background: The developmental competence of oocytes matured in vitro (IVM) is yet far below than in vivo counterparts. Recent studies suggest that the asynchrony between nuclear/cytoplasmic maturation and the initial low/heterogeneous quality of oocytes are the most important factors affecting IVM success. We investigated whether selection of growing oocytes (based on their glucose 6- phosphate...

P-106: Effect of Cilostamide on Meiotic Arrestof Ovine Oocytes

Background: in vitro maturation (IVM) of oocytes has increasing potential applications in assisted reproductive technology (ART), during which germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes cultured in vitro to produce mature (MII arrested) ones. Although functional, IVM oocytes have low developmental competence compared to in vivo matured oocytes; possibly because IVM comprises asynchrony between nuclear and c...

Pyrethroids cypermethrin, deltamethrin and fenvalerate have different effects on in vitro maturation of pig oocytes at different stages of growth.

Pesticides can significantly harm reproduction in animals and people. Pyrethroids are often used as insecticides, and their toxicity for mammals is considered to be low. However, cypermethrin, deltamethrin and fenvalerate - as potent specific inhibitors of protein phosphatase calcineurin - can influence the meiosis of mammalian oocytes. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of...

Acquisition of meiotic competence in growing pig oocytes correlates with their ability to activate Cdc2 kinase and MAP kinase.

Meiotic maturation of mammalian oocytes is under the control of cell cycle molecules Cdc2 kinase and MAP kinase (mitogen-activated protein kinase). In the present study, we investigated the relationship between the ability to activate Cdc2 kinase and MAP kinase and the acquisition of meiotic competence during pig oocyte growth. Growing and fully grown pig oocytes were collected from four groups...

Nitric oxide and meiotic competence of porcine oocytes.

Reproductive biotechnology such as in vitro fertilization, the creation of transgenic animals or cloning by nuclear transfer depends on the use of fully grown, meiotically competent oocytes capable of completing meiotic maturation by reaching the stage of metaphase II. However, there exists only a limited quantity of these oocytes in the ovaries of females. In view of their limited number, grow...
