Artificial intelligence outperforms humans in morphology-based oocyte selection in cattle.

Scientific reports
Evaluating cumulus-oocyte complex (COC) morphology is commonly used to assess oocyte quality. However, clear guidelines on interpreting COC morphology data are lacking as this evaluation method is subjective. In the present study, individual in vitro...

Manual versus deep learning measurements to evaluate cumulus expansion of bovine oocytes and its relationship with embryo development in vitro.

Computers in biology and medicine
Cumulus expansion is an important indicator of oocyte maturation and has been suggested to be indicative of greater oocyte developmental capacity. Although multiple methods have been described to assess cumulus expansion, none of them is considered a...

Follicle-stimulating hormone-induced rescue of cumulus cell apoptosis and enhanced development ability of buffalo oocytes.

Domestic animal endocrinology
The effect of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) on apoptotic status of cumulus cells, expression of proapoptotic and antiapoptotic genes, and development rate of in vitro fertilization-produced buffalo embryos were investigated. FSH supplementation ...

Evaluation of luteinizing hormone regulation of maturation and apoptosis, expression of LHR and FSHR in cumulus-oocyte complexes in Lanzhou fat-tailed sheep.

Polish journal of veterinary sciences
The present study aimed to assess LH effects on in vitro maturation (IVM) and apoptosis and also to explore the gene expressions of LHR and FSHR in cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) of the sheep. COCs were in vitro matured 24h in the IVM medium supplem...
