Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate cytoskeleton alterations during vitrified (Open Pulled Straw method) porcine immature oocytes, to utilize Taxol/sup TM/ (polymerization of tubulin molecules) and Cytochalasin B (CB, depolymerization of actin filaments) during vitrification to stabilize microtubule and microfilaments (MT and MF), and to determine in vitro maturation, fertilization and development of cytoskeletal-stabilized and vitrified porcine immature oocytes.
