Human granulocyte–colony stimulating factor enhances viability of porcine embryos in defined oocyte maturation medium

Cai Lian , Hyun Sang-Hwan

Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) enhances the proliferation, differentiation and survival of cells. In addition, G-CSF is a non-invasive biomarker of human oocyte developmental competence for embryo implantation. In human follicle G-CSF concentration increased during the ovulatory. At present experiment, the cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) were aspirated from superficial follicles (1–3 and 3–6 mm). COCs from small and medium follicle were matured in prot...
