Proteome and metabolomic profile of Mongolian horse follicular fluid during follicle development.

ABSTRACT: During follicular development, changes in the composition of the follicular fluid are synchronized with the development of oocytes. Our aim was to screen the key factors affecting oocyte maturation and optimize the in vitro culture protocol by understanding the changes of proteins and metabolites in follicular fluid. Follicles are divided into three groups according to their diameter (small follicle fluid (SFF): 10 mm < d < 20 mm; medium follicle fluid (MFF): 20 mm < d < 30 mm; large follicle fluid (LFF): 30 mm < d). Proteins and metabolites from the follicular fluid were analyzed by mass spectrometry. The results showed that: in LFF vs MFF, 20 differential abundant protein (DAP) and 88 differential abundant metabolites (DAM) were screened out; In SFF vs MFF, 3 DAPs and 65 DAMs were screen
