MicroRNA-130b is involved in bovine granulosa and cumulus cells function, oocyte maturation and blastocyst formation
BACKGROUND Oocyte maturation and preimplantation embryo development are controlled by array of genes that are post-transcriptionally regulated by microRNAs. With respect to this, previously, we identified altered expression of microRNA-130b (miR-130b) during oocyte maturation. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of miR-130b in bovine granulosa and cumulus cell function, oocyte maturation and...
متن کاملEfects of the pine needle abortifacient, isocupressic acid, on bovine oocyte maturation and preimplantation embryo development.
Isocupressic acid (ICA) [15-hydroxylabda-8 (17), 13E-dien-19-oic acid], a labdane diterpene acid, isolated from ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa), Lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta), common juniper (Juniperus communis) and Monterey cypress (Cupressus macrocarpa), induces abortion in pregnant cows when ingested primarily during the last trimester. The objective of this study was to investigate the e...
متن کاملP-110: Effect of Increasing Amount of Oocyte Secreted Factors on Cumulus Expansion of Bovine Cumulus-Oocyte Complexes
Background: In vitro maturation is a good method to decrease cancer risk of superovulation by gonadotropin hormones. A paracrine effect of oocyte secretions on oocyte developmental competence is under investigation. Apart from oocyte maturation, ovulation in vivo requires a precise control of extracellular matrix modification. Cumulus cells secrete hyaluronan to form a muco-elastic extracellula...
متن کاملP-103: Connection of The G6PDH Activity on Fertilization and Developmental Competency in The Bovine
Background: This study was conducted in order to determine whether BCB staining performed on immature bovine oocytes to assess G6pdhlevel has an impact on ivf/ivp technology in bovine embryos. Both spermatozoa and oocytes metabolize glucose through the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), and NADPH appears necessary for gamete fusion. Activity of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), the key e...
متن کاملP-87: Effects of Bovine Cumulus Cell Co-Cul tire on Post Fertilization Development of Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) Oocyte
Background: There is a considerable numbers of buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) in Iran which have an important role in rural life. The reproductive performance of buffalo is lower than cow. Co-culture with somatice cells improved the maturation rate of most of the species. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of bovine cumulus co-culture on post fertilization development of buffalo...
