Nature does it better: mimicking in vivo conditions to resolve in vitro production side effects
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Oviduct represents the original place of fertilisation and early embryo development in all the domestic animals. In past time it has been considered a mere channel but new reproductive biotechnology approaches suggested the need of structurally and functionally efficient oviductal environment for in vitro embryo production. Recreating the oviductal microenvironment in IVP systems represents a paradigm shift in reproductive biotechnology. By incorporating reproductive fluids and utilising advanced 3D culture models could be reduced adverse IVP outcomes, and bring assisted reproduction closer to its natural counterpart.
