Embryo metabolism : what does it really mean? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The study of early embryo metabolism has fascinated researchers in the field for nearly a century. Herein, we give a brief account of the general features of embryo metabolism and some consideration of the research performed to reach such conclusions. It

Dad's Diet Shapes the Future: How Paternal Nutrition Impacts Placental Development and Childhood Metabolic Health

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
This review highlights the emerging connection between paternal nutrition‐induced sperm epigenetic changes and placental phenotypes that may influence offspring metabolic health. An accompanying interactive ShinyApp allows exploration of these sperm–placenta gene networks, a framework for future research seeking to explore candidate biomarkers or ...

Harbingers of change: Towards a mechanistic understanding of anticipatory plasticity in animal systems

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Phenotypic plasticity is a strategy by which animals alter behaviour, morphology and/or physiology in response to cues of current conditions to cope with environmental heterogeneity.

Synchrony of the first division as an index of the blastocyst formation rate during embryonic development

open access: yesReproductive Medicine and Biology, 2018
Purpose To devise an uninvasive selection system for human embryos with high developmental potential after a single oocyte retrieval cycle by comparing the in vitro and in vivo effectiveness of first division synchrony against subsequent embryonic ...

Successful reprogramming of epiblast stem cells by blocking nuclear localization of β-catenin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Epiblast stem cells (EpiSCs) in mice and rats are primed pluripotent stem cells (PSCs). They barely contribute to chimeric embryos when injected into blastocysts.

The Effect of Assisted Reproductive Technologies on Human Sex Ratios

open access: yesAustralian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Modern assisted reproductive technology (ART), including pre‐implantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT‐A), has opened new avenues in understanding early embryonic events and has simultaneously raised questions about the impact of ART itself on sex ratios.

A WHO 2021‐based comprehensive scheme outlining sperm parameters’ associations with IVF outcomes in PGT‐A cycles

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To examine the association between semen parameters, assessed according to World Health Organization (WHO)‐2021 criteria, and paternal body mass index (BMI) and age, with embryological and clinical outcomes in ICSI cycles involving preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT‐A).

Lactate production by the mammalian blastocyst: Manipulating the microenvironment for uterine implantation and invasion?

open access: yesBioessays, 2015
The mammalian blastocyst exhibits a high capacity for aerobic glycolysis, a metabolic characteristic of tumours. It has been considered that aerobic glycolysis is a means to ensure a high carbon flux to fulfil biosynthetic demands.

Effects of AZFc (b2/b4, b1/b3, b2/b3, and gr/gr) deletions and primary duplications on the outcomes of the first intracytoplasmic sperm injection treatment cycle: A single‐center retrospective cohort study

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Current advances in high‐throughput sequencing technology enable the precise identification of Y chromosome microdeletion and primary duplication in infertile couples, but the mechanism and clinical significance of these mutations in assisted reproductive techniques remain unclear.
