To investigate the etiology of the hyperandrogenic phenotype of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a prenatally androgenized (PNA) mouse model was validated and used for microarray analysis.

View SamplesThe Pik3cd null females are subfertile and have less growing follicles than their heterozygous littermates in the ovary. These mice poorly respond to the exogenous gonadotropins and ovulate much less oocytes than controls. In addition, the estrodial stimulated GC proliferation in preantral follicles is also impaired in Pik3cd null ovaries. FSH and E2 dramatically activates PI3K/AKT pathway in GCs of wild type mice, but not in the Pik3cd null mice.

View SamplesGeneration of haploid gametes in vitro can potentially address gamete failure-based infertility.This study reports complete in vitro meiosis from murine ESC-derived PGCLCs resulting in the formation of male spermatid-like cells (SLCs) capable of producing viable fertile offspring via intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).Our findings provide the basis for generation of haploid spermatids in vitro in human, the generation of transgenic animals, and the use of this system to investigate mechanisms of meiosis.

View SamplesWe sought to identify the potential specific roles of the MTOR signalling in cumulus cells by comparing the transcriptomes of the Control (treated with the DMSO vehicle) and MTOR-specific inhibitor Torin 1(5uM)-treated cumulus-oocyte complexes that were cultured for 16 hours.
