Transcriptional profiling of bovine oocytes matured in vivo and in vitro under macromolecular supplementation: implications for oocyte competence

Key Points

• The aim is to compare the transcriptional profiles of bovine oocytes matured in vivo and in vitro with macromolecular supplementation to determine their competence.
• Conducted transcriptional profiling on bovine oocytes matured in vivo and in vitro.
• Evaluated the impact of macromolecular supplementation on maturation outcomes.
• Analyzed gene expression patterns to assess differences in oocyte competence.
• Findings indicate significant differences in gene expression between in vivo and in vitro matured oocytes.
• Oocytes matured in vivo show higher competence compared to those matured in vitro with supplemented macromolecules.
