Acteoside (AC) is a phenylethanoid glycoside that was first discovered in mullein, but is also found in various other plant species
The present work compares, for the first time, whether the season-dependent effects of heat stress (winter, spring, summer, and autumn) are replicated in an in vitro model, which is crucial for a deeper understanding of the physiological mechanisms underlying oocyte damage

This mechanism gives rise to new unstable molecules, triggering a chain reaction that, if not stopped in time, ends up damaging cellular structures and metabolic processes
Here is what sets our approach apart
The vitamin is found in meat, fish, eggs and dairy, but very little is contained in plants
