Gene expression analysis of bovine embryonic disc, trophoblast and parietal hypoblast at the start of gastrulation [PDF]

, 2017
In cattle early gastrulation-stage embryos (Stage 5), four tissues can be discerned: (i) the top layer of the embryonic disc consisting of embryonic ectoderm (EmE); (ii) the bottom layer of the disc consisting of mesoderm, endoderm and visceral hypoblast

Uterine glands impact uterine receptivity, luminal fluid homeostasis and blastocyst implantation

Scientific Reports, 2016
Uterine glands are essential for pregnancy in mice and likely humans, because they secrete or transport bioactive substances that regulate uterine receptivity for blastocyst implantation.

Interactome comparison of human embryonic stem cell lines with the inner cell mass and trophectoderm [PDF]

, 2018
Networks of interacting co-regulated genes distinguish the inner cell mass (ICM) from the differentiated trophectoderm (TE) in the preimplantation blastocyst, in a species specific manner.

Molecular and cellular events during blastocyst implantation in the receptive uterus: clues from mouse models

Journal of reproduction and development, 2017
The success of implantation is an interactive process between the blastocyst and the uterus. Synchronized development of embryos with uterine differentiation to a receptive state is necessary to complete pregnancy.

Pregnancy via Testicular Sperm Extraction for Anejaculation After Neuroblastoma Surgery

IJU Case Reports, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Surgical treatment of a neuroblastoma, a malignant tumor of the sympathetic nervous system, may result in ejaculatory disorder. There are no reports examining ejaculation disorders after neuroblastoma surgery. Case Presentation The patient was a 31‐year‐old Japanese male who had undergone surgery for neuroblastoma of the abdomen at ...

Linear association between endometrial thickness and live birth in single blastocyst transfers: A dual-center retrospective cohort study. [PDF]

Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand
The study investigates the linear relationship between endometrial thickness (EMT) and live birth rates (LBR) in single vitrified‐warmed blastocyst transfer (SVBT) cycles, and evaluates the independent effect of EMT on LBR. A retrospective analysis of 3375 SVBT cycles revealed that each 1 mm increase in EMT was associated with a 7% higher likelihood of

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

GNPAT/USP30 Stabilizes DRP1 Protein to Promote Mitochondrial Fission and Functional Damage in COPD Progression

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Our previous study revealed the role of glycerol phosphate O‐acyltransferase (GNPAT) in regulating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, its further mechanisms remained unclear. In this study, COPD models were established by exposing mice to cigarette smoke particulates.

Partial Trajectory: The Story of the Altered Nuclear Transfer-Oocyte Assisted Reprogramming (ANT-OAR) Proposal [PDF]

, 2007
This essay aims to tell the story of the “altered nuclear transfer-oocyte assisted reprogramming,” or ANT-OAR, proposal—from its conception by Professor William Hurlbut of the President’s Council on Bioethics—to its adoption and promotion by a group of ...
