Abstract
The inefficiency of in vitro maturation (IVM) compared to in vivo maturation is due to spontaneous resumption of meiosis I in the oocyte when removed from the ovarian follicle. The cAMP is a key molecule that regulates oocyte maturation. A decrease in the oocyte cAMP leads to premature resumption of meiosis I and asynchrony between the nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation. Several substance…
