2. 11. Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Aspects on immune and endocrine mechanisms

   Author : Anders Enskog; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; controlled ovarian hyperstimulation; cytokine; inhibin; interleukin-10; in vitro fertilisation; ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome; nitric oxide; vascular endothelial growth factor;

   Abstract : The ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a well-known side effect of ovarian stimulation for ovulation induction or for in vitro fertilisation. The syndrome is characterised by massively enlarged ovaries and a hyperpermeable/procoagulant state, giving rise to diverse symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea, ascites, hypovolemia and thromboembolism.

4. 12. Preservation of fertility through cryopreservation and in vitro maturation of human ovarian follicles and oocytes

   Author : Julius Hreinsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Oocyte; maturation in-vitro; cryopreservation; ovarian follicles; culture; IVM; preservation of fertility;

   Abstract : One of the most rapidly expanding fields in assisted reproduction is the preservation of fertility for young women at risk of premature ovarian failure. This may be caused by cytotoxic therapy or other reasons. Cryopreservation of follicles in ovarian tissue has been successful in animal models with live young being born. READ MORE

5. 13. Regulation of human ovarian folliculogenesis in vitro

   Author : Inger Britt Carlsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Culture; follicle; folliculogenesis; GDF-9; AMH; c-Kit Kit Ligand; matrix; oocyte; ovary; TGF-beta;

   Abstract : Cryopreservation of ovarian tissue containing immature oocytes is one approach to preserving the potential fertility of young women who risk losing their oocytes as a consequence of treatment with anti-cancer agents, or genetic disorders. This cryopreserved tissue can then be transplanted back into the ovary when the woman wants to have children. READ MORE

6. 14. Data analysis for discovering the protein profile dynamics of the human ovarian follicular fluid and BRAF mutated metastatic melanoma tissue. : -

   Author : Indira Pla Parada; Malmö Klinisk kemi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; proteomics; data analysis; malignant melanoma; ovarian follicular fluid; reproduction; bioinformatics; mass spectromery; female infertility;

   Abstract : Proteomics is widely utilized to understand the function of cellular processes at the molecular level. Using liquid chromatography interfaced with mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based proteomics, thousands of proteins can be identified and quantified in a single experiment and their relationship and interactions can be analyzed.

7. 15. Human ovarian follicle recruitment : an in vitro approach

   Author : Jennifer E Scott; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Following the first reports of successful cryopreservation of human ovarian tissue, the freezing and banking of such tissue has become common practice worldwide for the preservation of fertility. Patients include those at risk of premature ovarian failure, women and girls with Turner's syndrome, and cancer patients for whom radiation or cytotoxic treatments are likely to destroy their reproductive potential.
