Biological function of L-carnitine in oocyte maturation and early embryo development
Poor oocyte quality is responsible for female infertility.The search for supplements to improve oocyte quality is receiving increasing attention.Many studies have shown that L-carnitine plays a variety of roles in regulating female fertility.This article reviews the key roles and regulatory mechanisms of L-carnitine in oocyte maturation and early embryonic development,including activating fatty acids for β-oxidation to regulate energy metabolism,antioxidation to prevent oxidative damage,and inhibition of cell apoptosis,and the research progress of LC in improving oocyte quality and early embryo development.
