NR predicts viable follicle density in situ in slices of ovine and human ovarian cortex. Furthermore incubation of tissue in NR prior to culture does not compromise subsequent follicle survival in vitro, indicating the potential suitability of this approach in fertility preservation regimes.
There is insufficient evidence from the studies identified to conclude that hormonal suppression in association with surgery for endometriosis is associated with a significant benefit with regard to any of the outcomes identified. There may be a benefit of improvement in AFS scores with the pre-surgical use of medical therapy. The possible benefit should be weighed in the context of the adverse effects and costs of these therapies.
CBS-supplemented culture medium supported the proliferation and differentiation of conjunctival and limbal epithelial cells. CBS contained a higher concentration of growth factors and cytokines than FBS and adult serum. CBS may be a viable and safer alternative to FBS as a growth supplement in the culture medium for culturing epithelial cells, which may have important clinical implications when bioengineering tissues for clinical use.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
