one of the most effective ways to propagate lilium is by using tissue culture techniques, preferably through bulblet production. in addition to the surviving percentage of lilium bulbs after transplantation, the small size of in vitro bulblets compared to commercial bulbs and bulblets‟ dormancy are the most important constraints to commercializing lilium micropropagation. different concentratio...

In vitro maturation (IVM) is emerging as a popular technology at the forefront of fertility treatment and preservation. However, standard in vitro culture conditions usually increase reactive oxygen species (ROS), which have been implicated as one of the major causes for reduced embryonic developmental competence. It is well-known that higher than physiological levels of ROS triggers granulosa ...

Background: Mammalian oocyte undergoes a series of structural nuclear modulations during maturation in order to obtain full competence to support fertilization and early embryonic development. Microtubules are major cytoskeleton components and have pivotal modulators for chromosomal movement, and it has been shown that partial or immature spindle organization may compromise correct ploidy of th...

conclusions the present study showed that vitrification using cryotop and freezing medium can damage oocytes by reducing the maturation and fertilization rates in both developmental stages. results vitrification caused a significant reduction in the maturation rate of oocytes. of those that matured, the fertilization rate of vitrified ivm-mii (44.1%) and ov-mii oocytes (50%) was not significant...

One of the most effective ways to propagate Lilium is by using tissue culture techniques, preferably through bulblet production. In addition to the surviving percentage of Lilium bulbs after transplantation, the small size of in vitro bulblets compared to commercial bulbs and bulblets‟ dormancy are the most important constraints to commercializing Lilium micropropagation.

Background: Cryobiology and in vitro maturation of oocytes are very important tools of reproductive technology. Oocyte plays an important role in fertility. The objective of this research is comparison study the effect of invitro maturation and IVF fertilization of cryopreserved oocyte with fresh oocyte in mice. Materials and Methods: For this purpose, after superovulation was performed oocytes...

background: dendritic cells (dcs) are professional antigen presenting cells that have an important role in the initiation of immune response. the use of maturation factors in dendritic cell differentiation provides a promising approach in immunotherapy. objective: in this study, we compared tumor necrosis factor-α, polyribocytidylic acid, lipopolysacharide and cpg oligonucleotides in inducing d...
