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...
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop an appropriate medium for in vitro maturation (IVM) of immature mouse oocytes. Materials and Methods: Germinal vesicle of female NMRI mouse oocytes (6-8 weeks old) were collected from ovaries and cultured in maturation medium MEM-a, supplemented with: 100 mlIU/ml rFSH+7.5 IU/ml hCG+5% FCS (Control group) and 2mM all- trans retinoic acid (t-RA) ...
The serine/threonine protein kinase Akt is involved in many cellular processes including cell growth, survival, proliferation and metabolism. Akt activity is modulated downstream of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) in response to different extracellular stimuli. In the mammalian ovary, Akt collaborates with other kinases in the regulation of coordinate follicle and oocyte development. Akt ...
The serine protease tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) is synthesized by murine oocytes undergoing meiotic maturation, but not by arrested primary oocytes. Dormant, stable t-PA mRNA accumulates during oocyte growth, so that fully grown, arrested primary oocytes contain in their cytoplasm approximately 10,000 copies of this molecule. Translation of t-PA mRNA is triggered upon resumption of...
Egg activation refers to events required for transition of a gamete into an embryo, including establishment of the polyspermy block, completion of meiosis, entry into mitosis, selective recruitment and degradation of maternal mRNA, and pronuclear development. Here we show that zinc fluxes accompany human egg activation. We monitored calcium and zinc dynamics in individual human eggs using selec...
At fertilization of the mammalian egg, the spermatozoon initially binds to and then fuses with the egg plasma membrane. This critical event activates specific biochemical pathways within the egg. Activation of the egg induces resumption of meiosis and the start of rapid embryonic mitotic divisions on the one hand, and cortical granule exocytosis leading to modification of the zona pellucida and...
In mammalian females, germ cells remain arrested as primordial follicles. Resumption of meiosis is heralded by germinal vesicle breakdown, condensation of chromosomes, and their eventual alignment on metaphase plates. At the first meiotic division, anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome associated with Cdc20 (APC/CCdc20) activates separase and thereby destroys cohesion along chromosome arms. Beca...
In vitro maturation (IVM) is being increasingly used to treat human infertility, especially as rescue therapy for patients of polycystic ovarian syndrome and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. Quality control and the determination of optimal fertilization conditions—important to increase the use of IVM oocytes for embryo production and improve pregnancy success rates—require a detailed understa...
