Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidative stress and protection against reactive oxygen species in the pre-implantation embryo and its surroundings
TL;DR: It is now common to add antioxidant compounds to culture media, but maintaining the pro-oxidant-antioxidant equilibrium in embryos through such supplementation is a complex problem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of genes encoding antioxidant enzymes in human and mouse oocytes during the final stages of maturation
TL;DR: Human and mouse were compared in order to determine whether the differential developmental capacity of mouse and human preimplantation embryos in culture could be explained by the variations in the patterns of expression for these enzymes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The mammalian oviduct: biochemistry and physiology
Yves Menezo,P. Guérin,P. Guérin +2 more
TL;DR: Oviduct fluid and oviduct epithelium seem able to modulate in-time maturation and transport of gametes and embryos as mentioned in this paper, and subtle changes in the composition of tubal secretion permit fertilization and embryo development in the best conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypotaurine and taurine in gamete and embryo environments: de novo synthesis via the cysteine sulfinic acid pathway in oviduct cells
P. Guérin,Yves Menezo +1 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that hypotaurine and taurine are secreted by oviduct epithelium, and synthesised by tubal cells via the cysteine sulfinic acid pathway, and emphasise the importance of hypoturine andTaurine for gamete maturation, fertilisation and early embryonic development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mammalian oviduct and protection against free oxygen radicals: expression of genes encoding antioxidant enzymes in human and mouse
TL;DR: Different gene expression patterns of these antioxidant enzymes between human and mouse may reflect the variations in the ability of embryos to develop in vivo and in vitro.
