Assessment of nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation in in-vitro matured human oocytes
1 Apr 2002
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: With improved prospects for the use of human oocyte in-vitro maturation in assisted reproductive technologies, the need to define more clearly the coordination of nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation has arisen. METHODS: Immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy were used to evaluate cell cycle-dependent modifications in chromatin and microtubules in human germinal vesicle oocytes (n = 455) undergoing...
