Oocyte activation after intracytoplasmic injection of mature and immature sperm cells
1 Apr 1998
Abstract excerpt
The inactivation of metaphase-promoting factor (MPF), leading to reactivation of the oocyte cell cycle after fertilization, is one of the most important results of oocyte activation in the case of intracytoplasmic injection of mature or immature sperm cells. Oocyte activation is a cell signalling event that is likely to imply receptors at the oocyte plasma membrane and a signal transduction pathway involving...
