This project focuses on improving the fertility of cattle by studying the role of a specific protein, Progesterone Receptor Membrane Component 1, in oocyte quality. The research aims to understand how this protein affects the maturation and fertilization of bovine eggs, which is crucial for dairy farming.
Infertility is a major problem that affects domestic mammals and declining fertility represents an obstacle in maintaining profitability of dairy farms in Europe and worldwide.
Since declining fertility of cattle is mainly due to the poor quality of the oocytes, defining the factors and mechanisms that affect oocyte quality, is essential for improving female fertility.
In particular, basic knowledge of which proteins within the oocyte regulate meiosis, oocyte fertilizability and early embryonic…
