More Information
Summary:The mammalian oviduct is an anatomical part of the female reproductive tract, which plays several important roles in the events related to fertilization and embryo development. This review examines and compares several studies related to the proteomic and transcriptomic profile of the oviduct in different domestic animals. This information could be important for clarifying the role of oviductal factors in different events regulating fertilization and early embryo development, as well as for improving synthetic media for in vitro maturation/in vitro fertilization/embryo culture techniques (IVM/IVF/EC).
