Figure 1. Expression of SIRT1, 2, 3 during oocyte aging. Expression of SIRT1, 2, 3 mRNA as revealed by real time RT-PCR analysis. The time is 0 h (hours) at 12-14 h of hCG injection. In vitro: samples of 50 MII oocytes were collected after culture for 0, 6, 12, 24 h in M2 medium. In vivo: samples of 50 MII oocytes were collected at 0, 6, 12, 24 h in the oviductal ampullae.*Significantly different (P < 0.05).
