2 Figure 1 Electron transport chain (ETC) in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Reactions in complexes I, III and IV result in a stream of protons into the mitochondrial intermembrane space. In complex V, the energy generated by the mobilization of protons back into the mitochondrial matrix results in ATP synthesis by phosphorylation. NADH: nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydride, NAD+: nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, CoQ10: coenzyme Q10, FADH2: flavin adenine dinucleotide hydride, FAD: flavin adenine dinucleotide, Cytc: cytochrome c, ADP: adenosine diphosphate; ATP: adenosine triphosphate.

3 Figure 2 Oxidative stress-related factors and pathologies with a negative impact on female reproductive processes and assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes. Technical issues are well documented with the laboratory manipulation of gametes and embryos. There is increasing evidence that lifestyle habits and specific pathologies that generate oxidative damage also affect the female reproductive system and, ultimately, the success of ART.
