Özet

Immature oocytes are retrieved and matured through in vitro maturation (IVM). Maturation, fertilization rates, and embryo development via IVM are all lower than those found in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles. We investigated the effects of oncostatin M (OSM), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-I), and growth hormone (GH) in rescue IVM. A total of 111 germinal vesicle (GV) and 17 metaphase I (MI) oocytes were obtained after conventional IVF from 28 female Wistar albino rats. Denuded immature oocytes were cultured in maturation medium supplemented with OSM, IGF-1, or GH. The quantities of metaphase II (MII) oocytes matured from the GV stage were 17 of 30 (56.6%), 15 of 28 (53.5%), 10 of 30 (33.3%), and 7 of 23 (30.3%), in control, OSM, IGF-I, and GH groups, respectively. Maturation rates in control and OSM groups were higher than those in IGF-I and GH groups (p = 0.001). The quantities of MII oocytes matured from MI stage were 7 of 7 (100%), 4 of 4 (100%), 1 of 1 (100%), and 1 of 5 (20%) in control, OSM, IGF-I, and GH groups, respectively. Maturation rates from MI to MII stages in control, OSM, and IGF-I groups were higher than those in the GH group (p = 0.004). Acceptable maturation rates are observed with OSM in rat oocytes in rescue IVM.
