[corrected] Transferring a germinal vesicle (GV) from an aged woman's oocyte into ooplasm from a younger woman has been proposed as a possible way to overcome the problem of age-related decline in female fertility. Here we assessed this possibility by determining whether ooplasts derived from young mice could rescue ageing-associated chromosome misalignment in meiosis of oocytes from aged mice.
