Effect of Kisspeptin on the Developmental Competence and Early Transcript Expression in Porcine Oocytes Parthenogenetically Activated with Different Methods

Figure 2

Effect of kisspeptin supplementation after porcine oocyte activation (with electric activation, ionomycin, and ethanol) on temporal expression of MOS and CCNB1 mRNAs during culture in 6-dimethylaminopurine (6-DMAP) by real-time PCR. The relative gene abundance was normalized to GAPDH levels. The mRNA expression in 0 h after activation (0 h PA) was arbitrarily set as onefold. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. Significant difference is indicated by different letters A, B, and C.
