Detailed Description
A variety of mechanical, electrical, and chemical methods has been used to trigger the calcium oscillations to activate oocytes. Mechanical and chemical activation are the most commonly used methods for artificial oocyte activation, which can mimic calcium oscillations saving fertilization failure.
Control group, a single spermatozoon was injected into the failed fertilization MII oocyte in conventional IVF cycle. What to do when ICSI fails? The investigators collected the unfertilized MII oocytes and divided them into 3 groups to perform different activation methods, including chemical calcium ionophore activation (experiment group 1), CaCl2 injected combined with calcium ionophore activation (experiment group 2), and mechanical stimulation combined with calcium ionophore activation (experiment group 3). Calcium ionophore A23187 (Sigma) was used for assisted activation. The final solution was 10 μmol/L. The oocytes were exposed to the calcium ionophore A23187 for 10 min at 37°C in 5% CO2. The oocytes were checked for pronucleus formation at 16-20 hours after activation. Fertilized oocytes were cultured in vitro for 3-5 days, the developmental potential of the activated embryos were observed.
This study want to explore the effective of different artificial assisted activation methods, to improve the fertilization outcome of unfertilized oocytes after ICSI or IVF.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
No Intervention: Control group
Standard ICSI procedure.
The MII oocytes that failed fertilization in IVF cycles were injected with activating sperm.
|
|
Experimental: A1 assisted activation
The MII oocytes that failed fertilization in ICSI cycles were activated in calcium ionophore A23187 activation solution for two times.
|
Artificial assisted activation represents an effective technique to rescue the fertilization failure.
|
Experimental: A2 assisted activation
Fertilization failure MII oocytes were collected in ICSI cycles.
After CaCl2 was injected, the oocytes were transferred into the calcium ionophore A23187 solution for two times.
|
Artificial assisted activation represents an effective technique to rescue the fertilization failure.
|
Experimental: A3 assisted activation
Fertilization failure MII oocytes were collected in ICSI cycles.
Mechanical activation was done for the MII oocytes, and then the oocytes were transferred into the calcium ionophore A23187 solution for two times.
|
Artificial assisted activation represents an effective technique to rescue the fertilization failure.
