Effect of conditioned medium of mesenchymal stem cells on the in vitro maturation and subsequent development of mouse oocyte
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) secrete a variety of cytokines and growth factors in addition to self-renewal and multiple forms of differentiation. Some of these secreted bioactive factors could improve meiotic maturation in vitro and subsequent embryo developmental potential. The aim of the present...
