  1. 1. Regulation of human ovarian folliculogenesis in vitro

    Författare :Inger Britt Carlsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Culture; follicle; folliculogenesis; GDF-9; AMH; c-Kit Kit Ligand; matrix; oocyte; ovary; TGF-beta;

    Sammanfattning : Cryopreservation of ovarian tissue containing immature oocytes is one approach to preserving the potential fertility of young women who risk losing their oocytes as a consequence of treatment with anti-cancer agents, or genetic disorders. This cryopreserved tissue can then be transplanted back into the ovary when the woman wants to have children. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Preservation of fertility through cryopreservation and in vitro maturation of human ovarian follicles and oocytes

    Författare :Julius Hreinsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Oocyte; maturation in-vitro; cryopreservation; ovarian follicles; culture; IVM; preservation of fertility;

    Sammanfattning : One of the most rapidly expanding fields in assisted reproduction is the preservation of fertility for young women at risk of premature ovarian failure. This may be caused by cytotoxic therapy or other reasons. Cryopreservation of follicles in ovarian tissue has been successful in animal models with live young being born. LÄS MER

    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Infertility is a problem that affects about 15 percent of all couples. Many can be helped by assisted reproductive techniques, but still today many couples are treated without a successful outcome. The reason for infertility is sometimes known, but there are also many cases of unexplained infertility. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Human ovarian follicle recruitment : an in vitro approach

    Författare :Jennifer E Scott; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Following the first reports of successful cryopreservation of human ovarian tissue, the freezing and banking of such tissue has become common practice worldwide for the preservation of fertility. Patients include those at risk of premature ovarian failure, women and girls with Turner's syndrome, and cancer patients for whom radiation or cytotoxic treatments are likely to destroy their reproductive potential.
