From: Increased GDF9 and BMP15 mRNA levels in cumulus granulosa cells correlate with oocyte maturation, fertilization, and embryo quality in humans

Figure 2

Partial correlation anlysis was used to analyze the correlation between GDF9 and BMP15 expression and oocyte developmental potential in 196 patients who underwent ICSI. The numbers on the horizontal axes refer to the oocyte maturation rate (MII), normal fertilization rate (2PN), and cleavage rate. The numbers on the longitudinal axes refer to the relative mRNA expression of GDF9 or BMP15. (a) The correlation between oocyte maturation rate and the relative expression of GDF9 mRNA. (b) The correlation between normal fertilization rate and the relative expression of GDF9 mRNA. (c) The correlation between cleavage rate and the relative expression of GDF9 mRNA. (d) The correlation between oocyte maturation rate and the relative expression of BMP15 mRNA. (e) The correlation between normal fertilization rate and the relative expression of BMP15 mRNA. (f) The correlation between cleavage rate and the relative expression of BMP15 mRNA.
