The effect of leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF) on bovine embryo development in vitro : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Animal Science at Massey University [PDF]
The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of Leukaemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) either during in vitro maturation (IVM) or in vitro culture (IVC) on bovine embryo development. Three main experiments were conducted using oocytes aspirated from 2-8

XASH-3, a novel Xenopus achaete-scute homolog, provides an early marker of planar neural induction and position along the mediolateral axis of the neural plate [PDF]
We have isolated a novel Xenopus homolog of the Drosophila achaete-scute genes, called XASH-3. XASH-3 expression is neural specific and is detected as early as stage 11 1/2, making it one of the earliest markers of neural induction so far described ...

The paradox of pregnancy : an update on the immunology of early pregnancy [PDF]
Pregnancy is an altered physiological state where an organism essentially foreign to the individual carrying it, grows, develops and at an appropriate time probably initiates a series of signals which lead to its safe expulsion from the woman's body. The

Immunocytochemistry in Early Mammalian Embryos
The preimplantation period of mammalian development hosts very important cellular and molecular events. This period starts with the fertilization of oocyte by sperm, a process that reprograms the highly differentiated nuclei of these germ cells, and leads to the generation of a totipotent one-cell embryo.

The evolving roles of extracellular vesicles in embryo-maternal communication
Mammalian reproduction relies on precise maternal-fetal communication, wherein immune modifications foster tolerance toward the semi-allogeneic embryo. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes and microvesicles, have emerged as crucial mediators,
