BACKGROUND This study compares the microdose flare-up protocol to the ultrashort gonadotropinreleasing hormone (GnRH) agonist flare combined with the fixed multidose GnRH antagonist protocol in poor responders undergoing ovarian stimulation. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this randomized clinical trial, 120 women who were candidates for assisted reproductive techniques (ART) and had histories of on...
Heat shock proteins are highly conserved proteins present in organisms ranging from bacteria to man. They are both dominant microbial immunogens and among the first proteins produced during mammalian embryo development. Since bacterial and human heat shock proteins share a high degree of amino acid sequence homology, it has been suggested that sensitization to bacterial heat shock proteins duri...
Phospholipase C-zeta (PLCζ) is a strong candidate for the mammalian sperm-derived factor that triggers the Ca(2+) oscillations required for egg activation at fertilization. PLCζ lacks a PH domain, which targets PLCδ1 to the phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P(2)) substrate in the plasma membrane. Previous studies failed to detect PLCζ in the plasma membrane, hence the means of P...
Oxidative stress contributes to defective spermatogenesis and the poor quality of sperm associated with idiopathic male factor infertility. The aim of this study was to review the current literature on the effects of various types of antioxidant supplements in patients to improve fertilization and pregnancy rates in subfertile males with idiopathic oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (iOAT). Review of...
Prevention of polyspermic fertilization in sea urchins (Jaffe, 1976, Nature (Lond.). 261:68-71) and the worm Urechis (Gould-Somero, Jaffe, and Holland, 1979, J. Cell Biol. 82:426-440) involves an electrically mediated fast block. The fertilizing sperm causes a positive shift in the egg's membrane potential; this fertilization potential prevents additional sperm entries. Since in Urechis the egg...
Several fertility clinics in the United States are experimenting with ooplasm transfer. This technique is hypothesized to enhance fertility in women who have failed conventional in vitro fertilization due to poor embryo development. It involves injection of cellular material (cytoplasm or ooplasm) from a donor egg into the mother’s unfertilized egg prior to fertilization in vitro. The transferr...
H3K9 methylation is an important histone modification that is correlated with gene transcription repression. The asymmetric H3K9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) pattern between paternal and maternal genomes is generated soon after fertilization. In the present study, we carefully determined the dynamics of H3K9me2 changes in mouse zygotes, and investigated the regulatory mechanisms. The results indicat...
BACKGROUND The assembly of nuclear pore complexes (NPC) and their cytoplasmic stacks, annulate lamellae (AL), promote normal nucleocytoplasmic trafficking and accompany pronuclear development within the mammalian zygote. Previous studies showed that a percentage of human oocytes fertilized in vitro failed to develop normal pronuclei and cleave within 40-48 h post insemination. We hypothesized t...
BACKGROUND We report our experience on the efficacy of a new regimen of the GnRH antagonist, cetrorelix, and recombinant FSH, Gonal-F, for controlled ovarian stimulation in a donor oocyte programme. METHODS AND RESULTS Six oocyte donors were commenced on Gonal-F (150 IU) and two on Gonal-F 225 IU daily on day 4 together with cetrorelix 0.25 mg daily on day 8 until the day of administration of...
The eccentric shift of the sea-urchin egg within the fertilization membrane under an electric field was analysed by measuring the electrophoretic mobility of the isolated fertilization membrane and that of the egg deprived of the fertilization membrane. In addition, the migration speed of the egg proper was measured within the fertilization membrane under the conditions that: either (1) the mov...
