Article Synopsis
- Ethanol, even at low concentrations (0.1% and 0.2%), negatively impacts the quality of mouse oocytes, particularly affecting mitochondrial function during maturation.
- The study found that oocytes treated with 0.2% ethanol had reduced mitochondrial DNA and membrane potential, alongside lower lipid content and altered global DNA methylation.
- Ethanol exposure resulted in decreased blastocyst development and a lower total cell number in embryos, highlighting its detrimental effects on reproductive quality and genetic expression related to mitochondria.
