Contents Sheep and goat production is an important economic activity in Spain with an
increasing interest in milk production. Multiovulation and Embryo Transfer (MOET) and In …

'Sperm competition'—where ejaculates from two or more males compete for fertilization—
and 'cryptic female choice'—where females bias this contest to suit their reproductive …

Assisted reproductive technologies in all mammals are critically dependent on the quality of
the oocytes used to produce embryos. For reasons not fully clear, oocytes matured in vitro …

The pig oocyte maturation protocol differs from other mammalian species due to
dependence on follicular fluid (FF) supplementation. One of the most abundant components …

We have recently shown that the conditioned media from bovine oviductal epithelial cell
culture suppress sperm phagocytosis by neutrophils, suggesting that the oviduct around …

Purpose: To screen out specific protein with different concentration in follicular fluid from
advanced endometriosis and determine its direct effect on mouse oocytes matured in vitro …

Oocyte and embryo developmental competence are shaped by multiple extrinsic and
intrinsic factors. One of the most extensive research areas in the last decade is the …

We hypothesized that heat-induced perturbations in cumulus cells surrounding the maturing
oocyte may extend to the mural granulosa of the periovulatory follicle in the heat-stressed …

This study was designed to evaluate the capacity of vitrified–warmed porcine immature
oocytes to mature and to be fertilized using in vitro fertilization or intracytoplasmic sperm …

Purpose To study the differences in protein expression profiles of follicular fluid (FF)
between controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) and natural ovulatory cycles. Methods …
