Journal ArticleDOI
Human oocyte cryopreservation and the fate of cortical granules.
TL;DR: The commonly used PROH freezing protocol for human oocytes resulted in extensive Cortical granule exocytosis (CGE), which explains why ICSI is needed to achieve fertilization of frozen-thawedhuman oocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combining an EGFR directed tyrosine kinase inhibitor with autophagy-inducing drugs: A beneficial strategy to combat non-small cell lung cancer
TL;DR: It is shown that H1299 cells display a considerably lower sensitivity to erlotinib treatment, which can be restored by combining erlot inib with rapamycin or with imatinib, though to a lesser extent.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This work shows that Rab5-mediated fusion between Golgi-derived SGs and early endosomes precedes the maturation of the SGs, as reflected by the recruitment of Rab27B, and allows the incorporation of cargo, such as CD63, that traffics through endosome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution of lectin receptors sites in the zona pellucida of follicular and ovulated rat oocytes.
TL;DR: The biochemical nature and distribution of the carbohydrate residues of rat ZP are characterized at the light (LM) and electron microscope levels, using lectins as probes, and avidin‐biotin‐peroxidase complex as visualant is used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms leading to cortical reaction in the mammalian egg
TL;DR: To evaluate the biological significance of parthenogenetic induced CR, rat eggs were fertilized or activated by different concentrations of ionomycin and TPA and the ability of the CR to trigger a full block to polyspermy was examined in an IVF system.
