From: The secretions of oviduct epithelial cells increase the equine in vitrofertilization rate: are osteopontin, atrial natriuretic peptide A and oviductin involved?

Figure 6

Influence of osteopontin and ANP A on equine IVF. In vitro fertilization rates (IVF, percentage of fertilized oocytes per matured oocytes) of equine gametes. A) Gametes co-incubated with or without bovine osteopontin; in each trial, the IVF rates were not significantly different between the three concentrations (P > 0.05); B) Gametes co-incubated with or without bovine ANP A; in each trial, the IVF rates were not significantly different between the three concentrations (P > 0.05); The fractions represent the number of fertilized oocytes out of matured oocytes (oocytes in metaphase II, activated and fertilized).
