Fig. 6: OOSP2 promote human oocytes maturation in vitro.

a Time-lapse image showing the progressive maturation of human GV oocytes in hRec-OOSP2 containing medium (top row) and control medium (bottom row) with indicated time (h). Red arrows indicate the occurrence of GVBD or PBE. b Pie chart showing the maturation rate of hRec-OOSP2 treated oocytes and control oocytes. n = 24 (21 pairs of independent donors, each pair of oocytes was from the same donor. Chi-square = 2.9484, p = 0.08586, Chi-square test). c Time-lapse images showing the progressive maturation of human GV oocytes in antibody against OOSP2 (ab-OOSP2) containing medium (top row) and control medium (ig-Control, bottom row) with indicated time (h). Red arrows indicate the occurrence of GVBD or PBE. d Pie chart shows the maturation rate of ab-OOSP2 treated oocytes and igG control oocytes. n = 16 (14 pairs of independent donors, each pair of oocytes was from the same donor. Chi-square = 4.57143, p = 0.03251, Chi-square test). e PBE duration of each pair of oocytes in hRec-OOSP2 and control oocytes. PBE duration over 72 h is counted as not matured. f PBE duration of each pair of oocytes in ab-OOSP2 and the control oocytes. PBE duration over 72 h is counted as not matured.
