Glyphosate is an herbicidal derivative of the amino acid glycine. Glyphosate targets and blocks a plant metabolic pathway not found in animals, the shikimate pathway, required for the synthesis of aromatic amino acids in plants[1].
Glyphosate is a high-efficiency, low-toxicity, broad-spectrum herbicide. The residues of glyphosate-based herbicides are frequent pollutants in the environment. Glyphosate exposure could interfere with mouse oocyte maturation by generating oxidative stress and early apoptosis.Glyphosate induces early apoptosis and autophagy in mouse oocytes[2].
