We previously identified 62, 39, 27 and 7 kDa porcine sperm plasma membrane proteins that demonstrated a predominant affinity for the porcine oocyte plasma membrane by Western ligand blotting. The current experiments were designed to further investigate the potential roles of these molecules in sperm-oocyte plasma membrane interaction. Abilities of these proteins to bind to the oocyte plasma me...
BACKGROUND Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) has been used as a replacement for the mid-cycle luteinizing hormone (LH) surge for several years. The recent arrival of recombinant DNA technology has made recombinant HCG (rHCG) accessible. OBJECTIVE To assess efficacy of rHCG compared to urinary HCG (uHCG) for triggering of ovulation and induction of final oocyte maturation in assisted reproduc...
BACKGROUND The use of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist for triggering final oocyte maturation and ovulation can reduce ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in high-risk patients. LH levels post-trigger with GnRH agonist might be correlated with oocyte yield and maturity. Our aim was to evaluate the relationship between serum LH level at 12-h post-trigger and oocyte yield, matu...
The quality of the human oocyte determines the success of fertilization and affects the consequent embryo development, pregnancy and birth; it therefore serves as a basis for human reproduction and fertility. The possibility to evaluate oocyte quality in the in vitro fertilization programme is very limited. The only criterion which is commonly used to evaluate oocyte quality is its morphology. ...
Characterization of the Involvement of Integrins, Focal Adhesion Kinase, and Phospholipase C Enzymes Endogenous to the Oocyte in Bovine Fertilization and Oocyte Activation
oocyte activation (aoa), results in high fertilization rates. objective: this prospective, randomized, unblinded clinical study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of calcium ionophore on fertilization and pregnancy rate after intracytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi) in infertile men suffer from teratoospermia. materials and methods: thirty eight women with teratoospermic partner underwent icsi wit...
When a sperm and an oocyte unite upon fertilization, their cell membranes adhere and fuse, but little is known about the factors regulating sperm-oocyte adhesion. Here we explored the role of β-catenin in sperm-oocyte adhesion. Biochemical analysis revealed that E-cadherin and β-catenin formed a complex in oocytes and also in sperm. Sperm-oocyte adhesion was impaired when β-catenin-deficient oo...
Maturation and fertilization of the starfish oocyte are putative calcium-dependent events. We have investigated the spatial distribution and temporal dynamics of this calcium dependence in single oocytes of Asterias forbesi. We used the calcium photoprotein, aequorin, in conjunction with a microscope-photomultiplier and microscope-image intensifier. Surprisingly, in contrast to earlier work wit...
Fertilization in vivo is a complex process consisting of six steps, namely, penetration of the cumulus complex, binding of the sperm to the zona pellucida, fusion of oocyte and sperm, oocyte activation, sperm remodelling, and formation of the pronuclei. Since ICSI bypasses the first three steps any problem related to fertilization failure after ICSI arises from oocyte activation onwards. Accord...
Sperm premature chromosomal condensaion (PCC) and failed oocyte activation are considered to result in failed fertilization post intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Recent studies also suggested that sperm protamine deficiency may induce PCC. The ain of this study was to assess the effect of failed oocyte activation and protamine deficiency on failed ferilization post ICSI and to indicate ...
