Oxidative stress caused by light and high temperature arises during in vitro maturation (IVM),
resulting in low-quality embryos compared with those obtained in vivo. To overcome this …

Improper composition of culture medium contributes to reduced viability of in vitro-produced
embryos. Glutamine (Gln) is a crucial amino acid for preimplantation embryos as it supports …

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin produced by fungi and occurs naturally in various
foodstuffs and some animal-derived products. This mycotoxin can cause deleterious effects …

The quality of in vitro matured oocytes is inferior to that of in vivo matured oocytes, which
translates to low developmental capacity of embryos derived from in vitro matured oocytes …

Simple Summary The quality of in vitro matured oocytes is usually lower than that of in vivo
matured oocytes, possibly due to the absence of some important signal regulators in vitro. In …

Trophectoderm (TE) barrier function is an essential prerequisite for blastocyst development.
CLAUDIN7 (CLDN7), a member of CLAUDINS family, is involved in regulating intercellular …

Exosomes are related to effective communication between cells. In this study we aimed to
investigate the effect of porcine follicular fluid exosomes (FF-Exo) on cumulus expansion …

Pig cloning technique is valuable in agriculture, biomedicine, and life sciences. However,
the full-term developmental efficiency of cloned pig embryos is only about 1%, which limits …

Porcine seminal plasma (SP) is loaded with a heterogeneous population of extracellular
vesicles (sEVs) that modulate several reproductive-related processes. This study …
