Abstract: The ability to cryopreserve and genetically screen embryos has increased cumulative pregnancy rates and confidence in embryo banking. Compared to fresh ET cycles, endometrial receptivity and placentation appear to be enhanced by the more physiologic… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Connexins (Cxs) are required for normal embryo development and implantation. They form gap junctions (GJs) connecting the cytoplasm of adjacent cells and hemichannels (HCs), which are normally closed but open in response to stress… read more here.

Abstract: The present study sought to determine whether in vitro maturation (IVM) of pig oocytes in a medium supplemented with insulin growth factor-I (IGF-I) and subsequent vitrification with or without reduced glutathione (GSH) affect their quality… read more here.
