Molecular analysis of lipid uptake- and necroptosis-associated factor expression in vitrified-warmed mouse oocytes

Background We had previously demonstrated that vitrification reduces the levels of certain phospholipid classes, and that oocytes from aged mice show a similar lipidome alteration, even without vitrification. In the current investigation, we examined if vitrification-warming of mouse oocytes from young and aged mice causes any changes in molecular aspects of lipid-associated features. Methods Metaphase II (MII) stage oocytes were harvested from...
