Proteomic Analysis of the Alterations in Follicular Fluid Proteins During Oocyte Maturation in Humans.

ABSTRACT: Many components in ovarian follicles (follicular fluid, cumulus cells, granular cells, etc.) dynamically change during folliculogenesis and play a positive or negative role in oocyte maturation. Infertile women who underwent intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatment in the reproductive medicine centre of Hangzhou Women's Hospital between October 2018 and October 2021 were included. The ovarian follicular fluid and cumulus cells of diminished ovarian response (DOR) patients and control subjects with medical records of clinical data were collected. In total, 31 differentially expressed proteins, including 10 upregulated proteins (>1.50-fold, P<0.05) and 21 downregulated proteins (<0.67-fold, P<0.05), were identified in mature vs. immature oocytes by iTRAQ labelli
