Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the hallmarks of aging. Consistently mitochondrial DNA
(mtDNA) copy number and function decline with age in various tissues. There is increasing …

Mitochondria are double‐membrane‐bound organelles that are responsible for the
generation of most of the cell's energy. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in …

BACKGROUND There is a great inter-individual variability of ovarian ageing, and almost
20% of patients consulting for infertility show signs of premature ovarian ageing. This …

The oocyte is the largest cell found in multicellular organisms. Mitochondria, as the energy
factories for cells, are found in high numbers in oocytes, as they provide the energy for …

As women delay childbearing because of demographic and socioeconomic trends,
reproductive aging and ensuing ovarian dysfunction become increasingly more prevalent …

The oocyte is recognised as the largest cell in mammalian species and other multicellular
organisms. Mitochondria represent a high proportion of the cytoplasm in oocytes and …

Purpose The number of women attempting to conceive between the ages of 36 and 44 has
increased significantly in the last decade. While it is well established that women's …

Mitochondria is a powerhouse organelle involved in ATP synthesis, calcium signaling,
reactive oxygen species (ROS) by oxidative stress production, cell cycle arrest via apoptosis …

Mitochondria affect numerous aspects of mammalian reproduction. We investigated whether
the decrease in oocyte quality associated with aging is related to altered mitochondria …

Mitochondria have been implicated as key factors regulating female reproductive processes.
Notable progress has been made in determining the role of mitochondria with respect to …
