The C. elegans zygote supports both meiosis and mitosis within a common cytoplasm. The meiotic spindle is small and is located anteriorly, whereas the first mitotic spindle fills the zygote. The C. elegans microtubule-severing complex, katanin, is encoded by the mei-1 and mei-2 genes and is solely required for oocyte meiotic spindle formation; ectopic mitotic katanin activity disrupts mitotic s...

the success of oocyte donation is influenced by multiple factors. we performed a retrospective analysis to evaluate prognostic factors in oocyte donation cycles. the main outcome measurements including recipient age, donor age, estradiol level in midcycle, the day of transfer and number of transferred embryos were not different in pregnant and non pregnant groups. endometrial pattern but not en...

Taraxacum officinale has been used in Jordan folk medicine to treat male infertility. A recent study has proved a contradictory effect of the whole plant aqueous extract. The aim of the current study was to determine if the leaves of T. officinale have similar anti-fertility activities, and whether this effect is mediated through the regulation of spermatogonial stem cells (SS...

Dalvik virtual machine’s performance determines the performance of the Android platform. And each Dalvik virtual machine process is a Linux process, and each Dalvik virtual machine thread is a Linux thread. This paper analyses and researches process model of Android Dalvik virtual machine. Through research and analysis the role of Zygote in startup process of Dalvik virtual machine and the Zygo...

We carried out a prospective randomized trial on 220 couples with nontubal factor infertility to compare pregnancy rates and implantation rates after zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT) and uterine embryo transfer (UET). The zygote was transferred by laparoscopy into the fallopian tube 24 hours after oocyst retrieval. UET was performed 72 hours after retrieval with abdominal sonography guide....
