29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture therapy on oocyte quality and pregnancy outcome of patients with poor ovarian response or decreased reserve in the course of in vitro fertilization (IVF). METHODS: Sixty cases accepting IVF-ET ... Read more...


Colony-stimulating factor 2 (CSF-2) improves development and posttransfer survival of bovine embryos produced in vitro.

22 Sep 2009 In this study, we tested the role of colony-stimulating factor 2 (CSF2) as one of the regulatory molecules that mediate maternal effects on embryonic development during the preimplantation period. Our objective was to verify effects of CSF2 on ... Read more...
