Fig. 6. Correlation between the level of GSH and the redox potential during
development. (A) Relative amounts of NAD(P)H (grey bars),
FAD++ (white bars) and GSH (black bars) in mature MII oocytes (M2
control), MII oocytes treated with 2 mmol/l BCNU for 1 hour (M2+ 2 mmol/l
BCNU) and in MII oocytes treated with 2 mmol/l diamide for 15 minutes (M2+2
mmol/l diamide). The asterisks indicate that the values are significantly
different from the control condition. (B) Relative amounts of NAD(P)H
(grey bars), FAD++ (white bars) and GSH (black bars) in GV oocytes
(fresh GV), in mature MII oocytes (fresh M2) and in two-cell embryos (2 cell).
The asterisks indicate that the values are significantly different from the
MII oocytes. P=0.019.
