Artificial Activation of Oocytes from Sinclair Miniature Pigs [PDF]
Abstract Prather, R.S., Gibson, J. and Parry, T.W. 1996. Artificial activation of oocytes from Sinclair miniature pigs. J. Appl. Anim. Res., 10: 125–134. The experiments reported in this paper are designed to evaluate in Sinclair miniature pig oocytes a number of stimuli that are known to result in activation of domestic pig and mouse oocytes.

Cryopreservation of equine oocytes: looking into the crystal ball [PDF]
In vitro embryo production has evolved rapidly in the horse over the past decade, but blastocyst rates from vitrified equine oocytes remain quite poor and further research is needed to warrant application.

Effect of Mechanical Micro-Vibrations on The Efficiency of Leopard Inter-Species Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer [PDF]
Objective: Scarcity of oocytes for assisted reproduction in endangered species can be bypassed by interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT). In Felids, domestic cat (Felis catus) oocytes can serve as recipients for the nucleus of the endangered ...

In vitro Activation of mouse oocytes through intracellular Ca2+ regulation
Background: Ca2+ signaling pathway is suggested to play an essential role in mediating oocyte maturation. Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate intracellular Ca2+ of resistant immature oocytes that failed to resume meiosis following subsequent in ...

Hormad1 mutation disrupts synaptonemal complex formation, recombination, and chromosome segregation in mammalian meiosis [PDF]
Meiosis is unique to germ cells and essential for reproduction. During the first meiotic division, homologous chromosomes pair, recombine, and form chiasmata.

Expression profiles of genes regulating dairy cow fertility: recent findings, ongoing activities and future possibilities [PDF]
Subfertility has negative effects for dairy farm profitability, animal welfare and sustainability of animal production. Increasing herd sizes and economic pressures restrict the amount of time that farmers can spend on counteractive management Genetic ...

Maternal inheritance of twist and analysis of MAPK activation in embryos of the polychaete Annelid Platynereis dumerilii [PDF]
In this study, we aimed to identify molecular mechanisms involved in the specification of the 4d (mesentoblast) lineage in Platynereis dumerilii. We employ RT-PCR and in situ hybridization against the Platynereis dumerilii twist homolog (Pdu-twist) to ...
