“…Excess ROS levels, however, cause impaired mitochondrial function, oocyte maturation, granulosa cell (GC) apoptosis, and reduced transport of nutrients and survival factors to oocytes, resulting in cell death and poor embryo quality by changing the functionality of biomolecules such as lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins [32] . As a result, extensive research has been conducted to enhance the quality of in vitro -matured human oocytes by balancing pro- and antioxidant factors by incorporating various vitamins, hormones, cytokines, growth factors, minerals, and polyphenol compounds [32] . Furthermore, until the culture systems for IVM are refined, it is expected that there will be differences between in vivo and in vitro -matured oocyte competence.…”
