FGF2, LIF, and IGF1 enhance mitochondrial function and developmental competence in porcine oocytes from small antral follicles
Oocyte developmental competence is strongly influenced by follicle size, with oocytes from small follicles exhibiting reduced capacity for maturation and embryo development. Optimising in vitro maturation (IVM) conditions may help overcome these intrinsic limitations. Porcine oocytes derived from small and large antr...
