Abstract:Current variability in superovulatory response prevents the economical production of large numbers of high quality embryos and limits the use of embryo transfer. Pulsatile administration of GnRH (gonadotrophin releasing hormone) elicits pulsatile secretion of LH (luteinising hormone) while chronic treatment with a potent GnRH agonist reduces LH secretion. Using the latter, gonadotrophin-dependent preovulatory antral follicle development may be suppressed, resulting in a uniform cohort of small antral follicles… Show more
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.
