Summary: This study established a model for evaluating embryo or oocyte quality based on metabolites in follicular fluid, with phosphatidylcholines identified as key contributors. The increase of PCs in follicular fluid may lead to a decrease in embryo quality. Pathway analysis suggested that accumulation of arachidonic acid induced by PCs could weaken embryo quality.

Summary: Infertility has become more common due to increased exposure to toxic compounds, including heavy metals. The levels of 22 metals in the follicular fluid of 93 females were measured, and their impact on assisted reproduction technique (ART) was examined. Low levels of copper, zinc, aluminium, and calcium were found to be associated with polycystic ovary syndrome. There were significant relationships between the number of oocytes and iron and calcium levels, as well as between the number of mature oocytes and iron, calcium, and sodium levels.

Summary: Elevated oxidative stress levels were found in both the serum and follicular fluid of PCOS patients compared to normal controls, with the former showing more severe oxidative stress. The study revealed that oxidative stress in follicular fluid has a stronger impact on embryo quality, highlighting the importance of this factor in future research.

Summary: This study examines the impact of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) on reproductive health and finds that age plays a crucial role in the transfer of chemicals from blood to follicular fluid. Moreover, exposure to POPs is significantly associated with assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes.

Summary: The levels of nitrite and nitrate in follicular fluid were found to be related to the yield of MII oocytes, and nitrate levels showed a suggestive inverse correlation with embryos with high potential of implantation. This suggests that nitrite and nitrate concentrations in follicular fluid may be useful in predicting ovarian response and embryo implantation potential.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of supplementation with jenny preovulatory follicular fluid (PFF) on oocyte developmental competence in donkeys. The results showed that IVM media supplemented with FBS or donkey PFF can promote nuclear maturation and early embryo development in donkeys. This study is the first report of ICSI, time-lapse imaging, and in vitro blastocyst production in donkeys.

Summary: The study found that patients with low melatonin levels in follicular fluid had significantly higher oxidative stress markers, cfDNA levels, and lower relative expression of certain miRNAs compared to other groups. These patients also had lower fertilization rates and fewer high-quality day 3 embryos.

Summary: A novel vaccine based on a chimeric human adenovirus 5 vector was developed, which induced potent humoral and T-cell immunity lasting at least 5 months by enhancing Spike expression, infection of muscle and dendritic cells, and utilizing stabilized Spike in a prefusion conformation. Vaccinated mice showed neutralizing antibodies against various Spike variants and maintained stable immunity for over 5 months, suggesting potential for clinical trials.

Summary: This study revealed a significant lack of awareness among young adults in the UK regarding the potential impacts of gym lifestyles and supplementation on male infertility. Men were found to have a concerning lack of concern for their own fertility, with differences in awareness levels between men and women. It was also observed that men were more likely to consider making changes to their behavior if it had a long-term impact on their fertility compared to short-term effects.

Summary: Using a machine-learning model to determine the optimal trigger days can improve the outcomes of antagonist protocol cycles in freeze-all or fresh transfer cycles, for all age groups. Implementing these models can more accurately predict the number of retrieved oocytes, optimizing physicians' decisions, balancing workloads, and creating more standardized yet patient-specific protocols.

Summary: This study investigates the proteomic and phosphoproteomic differences in the endometrium of women with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) compared to healthy control women during different phases of the menstrual cycle. The results identify differentially expressed proteins and phosphorylated proteins, and highlight the insulin/cyclic nucleotide signalling pathway and AMPK/mTOR signalling pathway as major contributors to the abnormality of RPL endometrium. The findings provide insights into potential proteins associated with the pathogenesis of RPL and contribute to the identification of potential targets for RPL treatment.
