Oocyte cumulus complexes (OCC) were isolated from antral follicles of proestrous hamsters
prior to the luteinizing hormone (LH)/follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) surge and then …

The effects of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and cyclic guanosine 3′, 5′-
monophosphate (cGMP) on spontaneous oocyte maturation and cyclic adenosine 3′, 5 …

The temporal relationship of changes in cAMP and cGMP to oocyte maturation was
examined in proestrous hamsters (day 4). The first series of experiments showed, in normal …

The involvement of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in mammalian oocyte
maturation was assessed using cultures of rabbit cumulus–oocyte complexes and perfused …

The aim of the present study was to measure the level of cyclic GMP (cGMP) compared with
the level of cyclic AMP (cAMP) in rat oocytes during resumption of meiosis I (oocyte …

The influence of cyclic nucleotides on meiosis in isolated rat oocytes was studied. It is known
that dbcAMP inhibits the spontaneous maturation of isolated rat oocytes. However, the effect …

We have reported that in vitro treatment with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) delays by
about 3 h spontaneous meiotic resumption in cumulus cell-enclosed mouse oocytes. In the …

The cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) content of intact oocyte‐cumulus cell
complexes at various times after the induction of oocyte maturation in mice in vivo was …

The germinal vesicle (GV) of follicle-enclosed oocytes in mammals remains arrested at the
dictyate state of meiosis. Upon releasing the oocytes from the follicles, the meiotic process …

This study was carried out to test the hypothesis that purine nucleotide‐generating pathways
are required for ligand‐stimulated oocyte maturation in meiotically arrested cumulus cell …
