Mitochondrial contributions to oocyte and embryonic quality in bovine
2017
Baldoceda L | Robert C
Mitochondria are powerhouse organelles involved in several vital functions in cells, mainly maintaining balance between ATP synthesis and oxidative stress during early development in mammalian embryos. It has been shown that impaired mitochondrial function in bovine model might reach failure in oocyte and embryo developmental competence. In this review, we analyse implications of mitochondrial role on successful early development through recent studies on bovine oocytes and embryos.
