Journal Article
Muller, B., Lewis, N., Adeniyi, T., Leese, H. J., Brison, D. R., & Sturmey, R. G. (2019). Application of extracellular flux analysis for determining mitochondrial function in mammalian oocytes and early embryos. Scientific reports, 9(1), Article 16778. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-53066-9

Mitochondria provide the major source of ATP for mammalian oocyte maturation and early embryo development. Oxygen Consumption Rate (OCR) is an established measure of mitochondrial function. OCR by mammalian oocytes and embryos has generally been rest...

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.

Gene expression and metabolic response of bovine oviduct epithelial cells to the early embryo (2019)
Journal Article
Hamdi, M., Sánchez-Calabuig, M. J., Rodríguez-Alonso, B., Bagés-Arnal, S., Roussi, K., Sturmey, R., …Rizos, D. (2019). Gene expression and metabolic response of bovine oviduct epithelial cells to the early embryo. Reproduction, 158(1), 85-94. https://doi.org/10.1530/REP-18-0561

© 2019 Society for Reproduction and Fertility During its journey through the oviduct, the bovine embryo may induce transcriptomic and metabolic responses, via direct or indirect contact, from bovine oviduct epithelial cells (BOECs). An in vitro model... Read More about Gene expression and metabolic response of bovine oviduct epithelial cells to the early embryo.

The enigmatic morula: mechanisms of development, cell fate determination, self-correction and implications for ART (2019)
Journal Article
Lagalla, C., Coticchio, G., Lagalla, C., Sturmey, R., Pennetta, F., & Borini, A. (2019). The enigmatic morula: mechanisms of development, cell fate determination, self-correction and implications for ART. Human Reproduction Update, 25(4), 422-438. https://doi.org/10.1093/humupd/dmz008

Background: Assisted reproduction technology offers the opportunity to observe the very early stages of human development. However, due to practical constraints, for decades morphological examination of embryo development has been undertaken at a few...

Metabolomic Screening of Embryos to Enhance Successful Selection and Transfer (2019)
Book Chapter
McKeegan, P. J., & Sturmey, R. G. (2019). Metabolomic Screening of Embryos to Enhance Successful Selection and Transfer. In G. Kovacs, A. Rutherford, & D. K. Gardner (Eds.), How to prepare the egg and embryo to maximize IVF success (295-304). Cambridge, UK: Cambridge University Press. https://doi.org/10.1017/9781316756744.025

A key role of cellular metabolism is the provision of energy, in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). In the case of the embryo, energy demand is dynamic and highly regulated to facilitate developmental milestones such as fertilization, cleavage...
