Summary The inhibition of nuclear maturation allows time for the oocyte to accumulate molecules that are important for embryonic development. Thus, the objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of blocking oocyte ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of forskolin supplementation of the culture medium on the development, lipid content, and transcript levels genes of in vitro-produced bovine embryos. Ovaries (n = ...

The objective of this study was to assess the viability and cryotolerance of zebu embryos produced in vitro with or without the addition of fetal calf serum (FCS) and forskolin (F). Embryos produced in vivo were used as a ...

The presence of fetal calf serum in culture medium influences embryo quality, causing a reduction in postcryopreservation survival. Forskolin has been used to induce lipolysis and increase cryotolerance, functioning as an ...

O forskolin eleva as concentrações de adenosina monofosfato cíclica (cAMP) por meio da ativação da adenilato ciclase. Esse experimento possuiu o objetivo de utilizar o forskolin para melhorar a produção in vitro (PIV) de ...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the intracytoplasmic lipid content, development and cryotolerance of in vitro-produced bovine embryos treated with different concentrations of forskolin before vitrification. ...

A model bicyclic diol (3) incorporating the complete array of oxygenated function of the B ring portion of forskolin (1) has been synthetized using (-)drimenol (2) as starting material.

The process of meiotic resumption in oocytes, arrested since fetal life, and the expansion of compact layers of cumulus cells is triggered by intrafollicular mediators stimulated by LH. These events are extremely complex. ...
