Abstract excerpt
STUDY QUESTION: Is SIRT1 involved in the oxidative stress (OS) response in mouse oocytes? SUMMARY ANSWER: SIRT1 plays a pivotal role in the adaptive response of mouse germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes to OS and promotes a signalling cascade leading to up-regulation of the MnSod gene. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: OS is known to continuously threaten acquisition and maintenance of oocyte developmental potential during in...
