Pre-incubation of the cumulus-oocyte complex (COCs) may lead to better function of cumulus cells (CCs) and higher oocyte quality by changing the transcriptomic profile of CCs. 140 cumulus cell samples were isolated from 12 participants and …

OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the effects of temperature and storage time on the quality and DNA integrity of freeze-dried sperm from individuals with normozoospermia. METHODS: Normal sperm samples from 15 men aged 24 to 40 years were st…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Can time-lapse parameters and the transcriptional profile of cumulus cells be used to achieve a more stringent and non-invasive method of embryo assessment and to identify possible factors affecting the embryo's ability t…

BACKGROUND: T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is known as an aggressive malignant disease resulting from the neoplastic alteration of T precursor cells. Although treatment with stringent chemotherapy regimens has achieved an 80% c…

Although the role of myo-inositol (MYO) in promoting the oocyte quality of PCOS patients has been documented in human studies; the cellular effects of this supplement on oocytes have not been directly examined due to ethical limitations. In…

OBJECTIVE: Vitamin D3 has been shown to be effective in the treatment of PCOS. However, due to its poor solvability and bioavailability, effective time is delayed and dosage requirements are increased. In our previous study, we demonstrated…
