Supplementation of mitochondria from endometrial mesenchymal stem cells improves oocyte quality in aged mice
8 Dec 2022
Abstract excerpt
Maternal ageing is one of the major causes of reduced ovarian reserve and low oocyte quality in elderly women. Decreased oocyte quality is the main cause of age-related infertility. Mitochondria are multifunctional energy stations that determine the oocyte quality. The mitochondria in aged oocytes display functional impairments with mtDNA damage, which leads to reduced competence and developmental potential of...
