Abstract:This study investigated the effect of age and FSH treatment on plasma levels of IGF-1 and E2, folliculogenesis, endometrial histomorphometry, biochemical composition of follicular fluid (FF), and on nuclear maturation, gene expression and quality of cumulus-oocytes complexes (COCs) of prepubertal gilts. For this, thirty-five prepubertal gilts were separated according to the age (140 or 160 days), and within each age, gilts were allotted to receive 100 mg of FSH [treated; G140+FSH (n = 10) and G160+FSH (n = 7)]… Show more
