on physiological activities of oocyte as well as ovarian function. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of leptin and its receptor by reverse transcription - polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis in ovine oocytes.

Methods: Ovine...

Improved in vitro methods are required to synchronize meiotic resumption and to

allow all collected oocytes to complete nuclear maturation without affecting oocyte

quality in order to maximize embryo production. The use...

Objective: To investigate the expression of leptin and its functional receptor mRNA by

reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis in sheep oocytes.

Methods: Sheep ovaries were collected in reproductive season from...

Nitric oxide (NO) is a biological signaling molecule that plays a crucial role in oocyte maturation

of mammalians. It is generated by the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) enzyme from l-arginine. Although

the effect of NO has been shown...

Nitricoxide (NO) is a biological signalling molecule that is generated by NO synthase (NOS) from L-arginine. It has been demonstrated that NO has a crucial role in maturation of mammalian oocytes. In this study, the importance of NO/NOS system in in...

alcohol (PVA) or fetal calf serum (FCS) on in vitro

oocyte maturation and subsequent embryo development (IVM/IVC). Cumulus-oocyte complexes

(COCs) were harvested from ovine ovaries and subjected to IVM in the above-mentioned culture...

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...
