The role of IGF1 in the <i>in vivo</i> production of bovine embryos from superovulated donors
24 Nov 2008
Abstract excerpt
IGF1 plays an important role in bovine follicular growth, acquisition of oocyte competence and embryo viability. Current data also indicate a critical role for IGF1 in both the ovarian response and the embryo yield following the superovulatory treatments. IGF1 can have either positive or negative effects on embryo viability which is related to the concentration of IGF1 induced by superovulation treatment. These...
