The effect of platelet releasate on oocytes has a detrimental impact on early mammalian embryos (2023)
Thesis
Martin, F. The effect of platelet releasate on oocytes has a detrimental impact on early mammalian embryos. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4430667

Background: Blood-derived products are a growing area of therapeutic treatments for a diverse range of conditions, including hair loss, scarring, muscle injury, wounds, arthritis, and symptoms related to the menopause. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is o... Read More about The effect of platelet releasate on oocytes has a detrimental impact on early mammalian embryos.

Investigating the impact of hyperglycaemia on early embryo environment and development (2019)
Thesis
Roussi, K. (2019). Investigating the impact of hyperglycaemia on early embryo environment and development. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School, the University of Hull and the University of York. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222139

The development of metabolic conditions has been associated with suboptimal nutrient provision to the embryo during pregnancy. Metabolic disorders have also been linked to subfertility; obese women produce fewer and smaller oocytes that are metabolic...

Novel aspects of mitochondrial biology in early embryos (2019)
Thesis
Muller, B. (2019). Novel aspects of mitochondrial biology in early embryos. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School, the University of Hull and the University of York. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4221758

Mitochondria play an essential role in early development through facilitating the production of energy required to undergo key physiological processes. Mitochondrial function in oocytes and embryos has been associated with viability and reproductive... Read More about Novel aspects of mitochondrial biology in early embryos.

The effect of Glucose Concentration (5.6 mM vs. 17 mM) During IVM on Developmental and Metabolic Markers of Equine Cumulus-oocyte Complex Function (2018)
Journal Article
Lewis, N., Hinrichs, K., Brison, D., Sturmey, R., & McG. Argo, C. (2018). The effect of Glucose Concentration (5.6 mM vs. 17 mM) During IVM on Developmental and Metabolic Markers of Equine Cumulus-oocyte Complex Function. Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 66, 181. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jevs.2018.05.073

Both M199 and DMEM/F-12 support in vitro maturation (IVM) of equine oocytes and production of viable embryos after ICSI. However, these media differ markedly in glucose concentration: 5.6 mM (M199) vs. 17 mM (DMEM/F-12). Given the known impact of emb...

Energy metabolism of platelets (2017)
Thesis
Aibibula, M. (2017). Energy metabolism of platelets. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School, the University of Hull and the University of York. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4221806

Undesired platelet activation is associated with a number of diseases characterised by metabolic imbalance, such as hyperlipidaemia. Changes in platelet energy metabolism associated with disease states are unclear. This thesis presents a detailed inv... Read More about Energy metabolism of platelets.

The effect of maternal overweight and obesity on the viability and metabolism of human oocytes and early embryos (2015)
Thesis
Leary, C. (2015). The effect of maternal overweight and obesity on the viability and metabolism of human oocytes and early embryos. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School, the University of Hull and the University of York. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4217662

Overweight and obese (OWOB) women are reported to have a lower chance of becoming pregnant. The nutritional enrichment of the periconceptional environment apparent in obese women may be detrimental for embryo viability. This is the first study to exa...

Metabolic regulation during early embryo development (2015)
Thesis
McKeegan, P. (2015). Metabolic regulation during early embryo development. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School, the University of Hull and the University of York. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4216544

The preimplantation embryo must satisfy dynamic changes in energy demand during development to the blastocyst stage. Energy is provided through regulated metabolic pathways including glycolysis, β-oxidation and oxidative phosphorylation. Oxygen consu...
