Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro maturation of horse oocytes: characterization of chromatin configuration using fluorescence microscopy.
TL;DR: The chromatin configuration of resting horse oocytes and the time course of in vitro oocyte maturation was characterized using a fluorescent, DNA-specific label and centrifugation of oocytes was effective in allowing visualization of the germinal vesicle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chromatin Configuration Within the Germinal Vesicle of Horse Oocytes: Changes Post Mortem and Relationship to Meiotic and Developmental Competence
TL;DR: It is concluded that the fibrillar and intermediate chromatin configurations may degenerate during ovary storage, resulting in decreased maturation rates, especially of Cp oocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperactivation of stallion sperm is required for successful in vitro fertilization of equine oocytes.
TL;DR: The hypothesis that capacitation and hyperactivation are required for successful IVF in the equine IVF is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships among oocyte-cumulus morphology, follicular atresia, initial chromatin configuration, and oocyte meiotic competence in the horse.
TL;DR: The association of follicle atresia with increased meiotic competence suggests that acquisition of meiotics competence is related to a loss of suppressive activity by the degenerating follicle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Developmental competence in vivo and in vitro of in vitro-matured equine oocytes fertilized by intracytoplasmic sperm injection with fresh or frozen-thawed spermatozoa
TL;DR: Results indicate that good activation rates may be obtained after injection of either fresh or frozen-thawed equine spermatozoa without additional activation treatment, and bovine oocytes may be useful as models for assessing sperm function in horses.
