Rapamycin Rescues the Poor Developmental Capacity of Aged Porcine Oocytes

Rapamycin Rescues the Poor Developmental Capacity of Aged Porcine Oocytes

Unfertilized oocytes age inevitably after ovulation, which limits their fertilizable life span and embryonic development. Rapamycin affects mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) expression and cytoskeleton reorganization during oocyte meiotic maturation. The goal of this study was to examine the effe...
