...rent treatments and then cumulus-oocyte complexes were used for in vitro fertilization. Relative quantitative expression of mRNA transcripts related to apoptosis (Bax and Bcl-2), embryo development (LAMA1, IL-6 and FGF4) and stress (HSPB1) were examined. The results showed that 10% and 20% SFF supplementation exerted no effect on maturation and cleavage percentage whereas 40% SFF supplementation significantly decreased maturation and cleavage. SFF suppl...

...erved to be expressed in cumulus tissue, granular tissue, hypophysis, genital ridge and tissues of ovary and testis. Moreover, QRT-PCR results showed that BMP15 was expressed in the whole process of embryogenesis and folliculogenesis, early high level and then down regulated. It was significantly expressed higher level in COCs of middle diameter sized follicles than that of small and large sized follicles. BMP15 gene expression enhanced until mor...

...cyte and the surrounding cumulus cells to prepare the oocyte for further embryo development upon ovulation and fertilization. Molecules transfer to oocytes through gap junctions of cumulus cells. Therefore, cumulus cells and their secretion, follicular fluid, effect on oocyte maturation and developmental potential of the resulting embryos in vivo and in vitro. Because of the importance of ...

...) media. Experimentally, cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) which were obtained from bovine ovaries underwent culturing for a period of 22 h in TCM-199 containing an additional 10% fetal bovine serum, streptomycin (100 μg/ml), penicillin (100 U/ml), 25 μg/ml FSH, 2 IU/ml hCG, 0.2 mM sodium pyruvate, 1 μg/ml 17-β-Estradiol, and either 0, 100, or 200 μM/ml cysteine where 0 served as the control. IVF-TALP medium was used to fertilize the mature oocy...

...potential development of cumulus oocytes–complexes (COC) and determine the effect of LC in reducing the occurrence of apoptosis under in vitro maturation (IVM) conditions for buffalo blastocysts. The tissue culture media included a control culture medium and other three LC supplemented media (2, 3 or, 4 mM LC). All LC treatments had higher COCs percentages at the metaphase II (MII) compared to the control group. The 2 Mmol LC treatment had the highest pe...
