Abstract During initial maternal recognition of pregnancy (MRP), the equine embryo displays a series of unique events characterized by rapid blastocyst expansion, secretion of a diverse array of molecules, and transuterine migration to interact with the uterine surface.

Telomere lengths in human oocytes, cleavage stage embryos and blastocysts [PDF]
Telomeres are repeated sequences that protect the ends of chromosomes and harbour DNA-repair proteins. Telomeres shorten during each cell division in the absence of telomerase.

Aneuploidy in the Human Blastocyst
Studies of human cleavage stage embryos, 3 days after fertilization of the oocyte, have revealed remarkably high levels of chromosome abnormality. In addition to meiotic errors derived from the gametes, principally the oocyte, mitotic errors occurring after fertilization are also common, leading to widespread chromosomal mosaicism.

Blastocyst implantation contains the following three processes: apposition, attachment, and invasion of the blastocyst. Ovarian hormone progesterone (P4) regulates these processes exquisitely.

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.

Mechanics of mouse blastocyst hatching revealed by a hydrogel-based microdeformation assay
Significance Blastocyst hatching is crucial for implantation of mammalian embryos and a common failure point during in vitro fertilization (IVF). We have little knowledge of the mechanical basis whereby an embryo hatches out of the zona pellucida.

Regulated mitochondrial DNA replication during oocyte maturation is essential for successful porcine embryonic development. [PDF]
Cellular ATP is mainly generated through mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, which is dependent on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). We have previously demonstrated the importance of oocyte mtDNA for porcine and human fertilization.

Development and validation of deep learning based embryo selection across multiple days of transfer [PDF]
This work describes the development and validation of a fully automated deep learning model, iDAScore v2.0, for the evaluation of embryos incubated for 2, 3, and 5 or more days. The model is trained and evaluated on an extensive and diverse dataset including 181,428 embryos from 22 IVF clinics across the world.

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.

Regulation of blastocyst formation
Preimplantation or pre-attachment development encompasses the "free"-living period of mammalian embryogenesis, which directs development of the zygote through to the blastocyst stage. Blastocyst formation is essential for implantation, establishment of pregnancy and is a principal determinant of embryo quality prior to embryo transfer.
