## Abstract The response to parthenogenetic activation (calcium ionophore A23187) of bovine oocytes after 30 hr of culture in different maturation conditions was evaluated. The activation rates of oocytes in response to 10 ฮผ A23187 were similar (86% ยฑ 4 vs. 89% ยฑ 8) when the oocytes matured with or

The physiological role of cumulus cell surrounding oocytes is particularly important for normal cytoplasmic maturation of oocytes. Collagen-based demineralized bone matrix (DBM) is a valuable biomaterial for the three-dimensional (3-D) cell culture. The present study was designed to determine whethe
This study was conducted to determine whether endothelial-derived nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) affects meiotic maturation of mouse oocytes in vitro. Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COC) were isolated from ovarian follicles of 27-day-old PMSGprimed wildtype (WT), and eNOS-knockout (eNOS-KO) females, and cu
