Published in 2021 at "Prenatal Diagnosis"

DOI: 10.1002/pd.5927

Abstract: The gain or loss of a chromosome—or aneuploidy—acts as one of the major triggers for infertility and pregnancy loss in humans. These chromosomal abnormalities affect more than 40% of eggs in women at both ends… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Trends in cell biology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.tcb.2016.09.002

Abstract: Eggs and sperm develop through a specialized cell division called meiosis. During meiosis, the number of chromosomes is reduced by two sequential divisions in preparation for fertilization. In human female meiosis, chromosomes frequently segregate incorrectly,… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Molecular Human Reproduction"

DOI: 10.1093/molehr/gaaa086

Abstract: Abstract At fertilization in mice and humans, the activation of the egg is caused by a series of repetitive Ca2+ oscillations which are initiated by phospholipase-C(zeta)ζ that generates inositol-1,4,5-trisphophate (InsP3). Ca2+ oscillations and egg activation… read more here.
