a, b Values (mean ± SD) with different superscripts within columns are significantly different (P<0.05). * The oocytes collected from antral follicles (2 to 8 mm in diameter) served as in vivo-grown controls. GV, germinal vesicle; GVBD, germinal vesicle breakdown; M I, metaphase I; A I/T I, anaphase I/telophase I; M II, metaphase II.
