Cytoplasmic maturation of bovine oocytes: Structural and biochemical modifications and acquisition of developmental competence
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2009)
Oocyte maturation is a long process during which oocytes acquire their intrinsic ability to support the subsequent stages of development in a stepwise manner, ultimately reaching activation of the embryonic genome. This ...
Validation of macroscopic maturity stages of the Patagonian red octopus Enteroctopus megalocyathus
(Cambridge University Press, 2013-02)
Testes and ovaries of Enteroctopus megalocyathus collected along the Patagonian Atlantic coast were analysed histologically to validate the macroscopic maturity scales adopted for this species. Changes through the course ...
New approaches regarding the in vitro maturation of oocytes: Manipulating cyclic nucleotides and their partners in crime
(2017-01-01)
Several discoveries have been described recently (5-10 years) about the biology of ovarian follicles (oocyte, cumulus cells and granulosa cells), including new aspects of cellular communication, the control of oocyte ...
A Measure of Ecosystem Maturity.
(Ecological Modelling, 1999-01-01)
A measure to quantify maturity in ecosystems is proposed. The index is based on the analysis of flows of biomass. A measure of the uncertainty of the determination of the route of a given particle of matter will follow ...
Role of arachidonic acid cascade in Rhinella arenarum oocyte maturation
(Cambridge University Press, 2015-08)
There are no studies that document the production of prostaglandins (PGs) or their role in Rhinella arenarum oocyte maturation. In this study, we analysed the effect of arachidonic acid (AA) andprostaglandins (PGs) on ...
Allometric growth, sexual maturity and reproductive cycle ofAegla castro (Decapoda: Anomura: Aeglidae) from Itatinga, state of São Paulo, southeastern Brazil
(Sociedade Brasileira de Carcinologia, 2016)
Abstract Allometric growth of chelae dimensions was analyzed to assess the average size at the onset of morphometric maturity (ASOMM) and sexual dimorphism regarding the pair of chelae in the Aegla castro. Both adult males ...
