4 Nov 2004
Abstract excerpt
Germinal vesicle transplantation (GVT) has been proposed as a possible treatment to correct age-related oocyte aneuploidy caused by dysfunctional ooplasm. How healthy ooplasm regulates normal meiosis and subsequent development has yet to be elucidated, but impaired mitochondrial metabolism may be attributable to incomplete segregation of the oocyte chromosomes. In the present study, after ooplasmic mitochondrial...
