What is a suitable time interval between the last GnRH antagonist exposure and GnRH agonist (GnRHa) triggering for final follicular maturation? A retrospective cohort study including 413 patients undergoing GnRH antagonist cycles in which GnRHa trigger was used, either solely or as a dual trigger. The primary outcome measure was the follicle/mature...

Background/aimsThe Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) is involved in the regulation of multiple cellular functions via protein-protein interactions and has been most studied with respect to Alzheimer's disease (AD). Abnormal processing of the single transmembrane-spanning C99 fragment of APP contributes to the formation of amyloid plaques, which are c...

BackgroundLysophosphatidic acid-supplemented culture medium significantly increases the oocyte maturation rate in vitro. However, potential targets and pathways involved remain unknown.MethodsA total of 43 women, who underwent cesarean section and aged between 18 and 35 years with good health, were included in this study. Immature oocytes were obta...

Knowledge of the sperm-oocyte ratio in fish fertilization serves as the basis for studies on artificial reproduction and gamete manipulation. The aim of this study was to determine the minimum insemination dose for Brycon amazonicus oocyte fertilization. Female and male gametes were used and tested with the following doses of spermatozoa oocyte-1 m...

Objective This study aimed to characterize a validated model for predicting oocyte retrieval in controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) and to construct model-based nomograms for assistance in clinical decision-making regarding the gonadotropin protocol and dose. Methods This observational, retrospective, cohort study included 636 women with primary u...

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), a type of non-protein coding transcripts with lengths exceeding 200 nucleotides, is reported to be widely involved in many cellular and developmental processes. However, few roles of lncRNA in oocyte development have been defined. In this study, to uncover the effect of lncRNA during oocyte maturation, bovine germinal ...

Synaptic disturbances in excitatory to inhibitory (E/I) balance in forebrain circuits are thought to contribute to the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and dementia, although direct evidence for such imbalance in humans is lacking. We assessed anatomical and electrophysiological synaptic E/I ratios in post-mortem parietal cortex samples from...
