Published in 2019 at "Journal of biophotonics"

DOI: 10.1002/jbio.201960038

Abstract: Unfertilised eggs (oocytes) release chemical biomarkers into the medium surrounding them. This provides an opportunity to monitor cell health and development during assisted reproductive processes if detected in a non-invasive manner. Here we report the… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Cellular Biochemistry"

DOI: 10.1002/jcb.27380

Abstract: The outcome of in vitro maturation (IVM) in the patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is poor. Abnormal intraovarian paracrine interplay alters microenvironment for oocyte development through folliculogenesis and decreases developmental competence of oocytes in… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Molecular Reproduction and Development"

DOI: 10.1002/mrd.22756

Abstract: Growth factors synthesized by ovarian somatic cells affect cumulus cell expansion and oocyte maturation in vitro. Fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF10), for example, is a known regulator of mammalian cumulus‐oocyte complex maturation. In this study,… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Environmental Toxicology"

DOI: 10.1002/tox.22384

Abstract: Malathion is one of the most commonly used insecticides. Recent findings have demonstrated that it induces oxidative stress in somatic cells, but there are not enough studies that have demonstrated this effect in germ cells.… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Purinergic Signalling"

DOI: 10.1007/s11302-020-09690-6

Abstract: The improvement of cryopreserved oocyte survival is imperative for the preservation of female fertility. In this study, we investigate whether P2Y2 receptors (P2Y2R) can be directly implicated in calcium (Ca 2+ ) homeostasis misbalances observed… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "General and comparative endocrinology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ygcen.2018.04.009

Abstract: Although previous studies suggest membrane progesterone receptor alpha (mPRα/Paqr7) mediates 17, 20β-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (DHP) induction of oocyte maturation (OM) in zebrafish, critical information needed to establish mPRα as the receptor mediating OM is lacking. The relative… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Nature Communications"

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-025-59035-3

Abstract: Climate-driven warming affects the reproduction of oviparous ectotherms. However, whether oviparous ectotherms possess a protection mechanism against heat stress for oocyte development, which is essential for maintaining the continuity of animal populations, is largely unknown.… read more here.
