Clinical outcome of fresh and vitrified-warmed blastocyst and cleavage-stage embryo transfers in ethnic Chinese ART patients

open access: yesJournal of Ovarian Research, 2012
Objectives This study sought to evaluate the outcome of fresh and vitrified-warmed cleavage-stage and blastocyst-stage embryo transfers in patients undergoing ART treatment within an ethnic Chinese population.

Blastocyst activation engenders transcriptome reprogram affecting X-chromosome reactivation and inflammatory trigger of implantation

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Our data systematically and comprehensively reveal the genetic programming of blastocyst for implantation in a delayed implantation mouse model.

Prostaglandins in Swine Blastocysts [PDF]

open access: yesBiology of Reproduction, 1983
The activity of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and the content of prostaglandins (PGF and PGE-A) in swine blastocysts were determined on Days 7 through 14 of gestation by using radioenzymatic and radioimmunoassay techniques. Both PLA2 activity and PG content increased in the blastocyst with age.

Blastomere movement post first cell division correlates with embryonic compaction and subsequent blastocyst formation

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2019
Background Blastomere movement (BMov) occurs after the first cell division in human embryos. This movement has been suggested as a prognostic parameter for pregnancy outcome prediction following cleavage-stage embryo transfer. However, the effect of BMov

Leukemia Inhibitory Factor Stimulates Primitive Endoderm Expansion in the Bovine Inner Cell Mass

open access: yesFrontiers in Animal Science, 2021
Previous work determined that bovine interleukin-6 (IL6) increases inner cell mass (ICM), primitive endoderm (PE), and total cell number in in vitro produced (IVP) bovine blastocysts.

Repeats as global DNA methylation marker in bovine preimplantation embryos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
DNA methylation undergoes dynamic changes and is a crucial part of the epigenetic regulation during mammalian early development. To determine the DNA methylation levels in bovine embryos, we applied a bisulfite sequencing based method aimed at repetitive

Morphogenesis of the mammalian blastocyst

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2008
The first 4 days of mouse pre-implantation development are characterized by a period of segmentation, including morphogenetic events that are required for the divergence of embryonic and extra-embryonic lineages. These extra-embryonic tissues are essential for the implantation into the maternal uterus and for the development of the foetus.

Cleavage stage versus blastocyst stage embryo transfer in assisted reproductive technology.

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2016
BACKGROUND Advances in cell culture media have led to a shift in in vitro fertilisation (IVF) practice from cleavage stage embryo transfer to blastocyst stage transfer.

The effect of cadmium on the bovine in vitro oocyte maturation and early embryo development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
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.

Modeling human trophoblast, the placental epithelium at the maternal fetal interface. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Appropriate human trophoblast lineage specification and differentiation is crucial for the establishment of normal placentation and maintenance of pregnancy. However, due to the lack of proper modeling systems, the molecular mechanisms of these processes
