The relationship between pregnancy outcome and smooth endoplasmic reticulum clusters in MII human oocytes

8 Jun 2004

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: During ICSI, we occasionally observe pronucleus sized translucent vacuoles. We investigated why these vacuoles occur and determined the effect on pregnancy outcome. METHODS: Translucent vacuole-positive oocytes and the corresponding cohort were examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and histochemical staining with DiI and ER-Tracker. Stimulation methods, hormonal levels, patients'...
