The effect of cadmium on the bovine in vitro oocyte maturation and early embryo development [PDF]
Common pollutants such as heavy metals and cadmium is among those with high environmental concerns. In vivo studies had shown that cadmium (Cd) causes oocyte degeneration and embryo mortality, and lowers pregnancy rates in mammals.

Background and Aims: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are abundantly expressed in rapidly growing and undifferentiated cells, for example, embryonic stem cells. This led to the discovery that miRNAs are significantly expressed in human embryos and that intracellular ...

Molecular Signaling Regulating Endometrium–Blastocyst Crosstalk
Implantation of the embryo into the uterine endometrium is one of the most finely-regulated processes that leads to the establishment of a successful pregnancy.

The Effect of Prolonged Culture of Chromosomally Abnormal Human Embryos on The Rate of Diploid Cells [PDF]
Background A decrease in aneuploidy rate following a prolonged co-culture of human blastocysts has been reported. As co-culture is not routinely used in assisted reproductive technology, the present study aimed to evaluate the effect of the prolonged ...

In vitro production of bovine embryos derived from individual donors in the Corral® dish [PDF]
Background: Since the identity of the embryo is of outmost importance during commercial in vitro embryo production, bovine oocytes and embryos have to be cultured strictly per donor.

Polar bodies are tiny cells that are extruded during oocyte meiosis and are generally considered not essential for embryonic development. Therefore, polar bodies have been widely used as important materials for the preimplantation genetic diagnosis of ...

Expression of connexins in human preimplantation embryos in vitro [PDF]
Intercellular communication via gap junctions is required to coordinate developmental processes in the mammalian embryo. We have investigated if the connexin (Cx) isoforms known to form gap junctions in rodent preimplantation embryos are also expressed ...

Survival of bovine blastocysts produced in vitro and vitrified in vitri-tip and vitri-top devices. [PDF]
Vitrification is a new technique that has many potential advantages in mammalian oocytes and embryos. In the present work, the objective was to compare of post thawing survival rate by of blastocysts vitrified in vitro in two devices.

Embryo culture in presence of oviductal fluid induces DNA methylation changes in bovine blastocysts [PDF]
During the transit through the oviduct, the early embryo initiates an extensive DNA methylation reprogramming of its genome. Given that these epigenetic modifications are susceptible to environmental factors, components present in the oviductal milieu ...
