Oocyte-Somatic Cell Interactions and Ovulation Rate: Effects on Oocyte Quality and Embryo Yield

2014-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The use of exogenous gonadotropins to increase oocyte yields for better pregnancy outcomes remains unpredictable and inefficient. The objectives of this review are to address two questions concerning this issue: (1) are there any alternatives for improving consistency in oocyte yields? (2) is it possible to develop a molecular diagnostic test for oocytes with blastocyst potential? Studies in sheep with a heterozy...
