Actomyosin polarisation through PLC-PKC triggers symmetry breaking of the mouse embryo
The molecular trigger that establishes cell polarity in the mammalian embryo is unclear. Here, the authors show that de novo polarisation of the mouse embryo at the 8-cell stage is directed by Phospholipase C and Protein kinase C and occurs in two phases:

Backgroud Though it is toxic to humans, dichlorvos is a widely used chemical pesticide and plays an important role in the control of plant pests. The application of a combination of the biocontrol agent Trichoderma with dichlorvos may reduce the need for

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.

MicroRNA Signaling in Embryo Development [PDF]
Expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) is essential for embryonic development and serves important roles in gametogenesis. miRNAs are secreted into the extracellular environment by the embryo during the preimplantation stage of development. Several cell types secrete miRNAs into biological fluids in the extracellular environment.

Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), a type of epigenetic regulator, are thought to play important roles in embryonic development in mice, and several developmental defects are associated with epigenetic modification disorders.

Integrative Single-Cell Transcriptomic Analysis of Human Fetal Thymocyte Development
Intrathymic differentiation of T lymphocytes begins as early as intrauterine stage, yet the T cell lineage decisions of human fetal thymocytes at different gestational ages are not currently understood. Here, we performed integrative single-cell analyses

Maternal lipid profile during early pregnancy and birth weight: A retrospective study
IntroductionElevated maternal serum lipid concentrations have been related to an adverse intrauterine environment and lead to abnormal birth weight.ObjectiveIn this study, we aimed to explore the association between maternal lipid profiles during early ...

Fertilization capacity with rainbow trout DNA-damaged sperm and embryo developmental success [PDF]
Mammalian spermatozoa undergo a strong selection process along the female tract to guarantee fertilization by good quality cells, but risks of fertilization with DNA-damaged spermatozoa have been reported.

Growing evidence suggests that adverse intrauterine environments could affect the long-term health of offspring. Recent evidence indicates that gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with neurocognitive changes in offspring.

Composite morphogenesis during embryo development
Morphogenesis drives the formation of functional living shapes. Gene expression patterns and signaling pathways define the body plans of the animal and control the morphogenetic processes shaping the embryonic tissues. During embryogenesis, a tissue can undergo composite morphogenesis resulting from multiple concomitant shape changes.
