Endocrine activity of extraembryonic membranes extends beyond placental amniotes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 BackgroundDuring development, all amniotes (mammals, reptiles, and birds) form extraembryonic membranes, which regulate gas and water exchange, remove metabolic wastes, provide shock absorption, and transfer maternally derived nutrients.

Conserved and divergent DNA methylation features of extraembryonic tissues between human, mouse and chicken [PDF]
BMC GenomicsBackground The first cell fate decisions in embryogenesis give rise to extraembryonic tissues, such as the yolk sac and placenta, which are essential for embryo survival.

Molecular Regulation of Post-Hatching Embryo Development: Implications for Early Pregnancy Losses in Livestock Species. [PDF]
Reprod Domest AnimABSTRACT Pregnancy loss (PL) remains a major limitation to reproductive efficiency in livestock, with a substantial proportion originating during early embryo development, particularly between blastocyst hatching and implantation. This developmental window encompasses complex processes of lineage differentiation and morphogenesis. Accumulating evidence

Conceptus Elongation, Implantation, and Early Placental Development in Species with Central Implantation: Pigs, Sheep, and Cows [PDF]
BiomoleculesSpecies have different strategies for implantation and placentation. Much can be learned about general molecular and cellular biology through the examination and comparison of these differences.

Expression of tripartite motif family-like protein 1 and 2 in early conceptus development and placentation in the pig [PDF]
Reproduction and FertilityThe eutherian placenta is highly complex, evolving to regulate the inflammatory phase of pregnancy during conceptus attachment and placental tissue development. Tripartite motif family-like (TRIMLs) proteins are implicated in downregulating inflammation.

Pregnancy Outcomes Following Artificial Insemination and Embryo Transfer in Dairy Cows-Expectations vs. Reality. [PDF]
Reprod Domest AnimABSTRACT Bovine embryo transfer (ET) has been a consistently growing market worldwide with in vitro produced (IVP) embryos now far outnumbering those produced by traditional superovulation. Because transfer of a viable blastocyst‐stage embryo to the uterus bypasses many of the potential biological causes of early pregnancy failure associated with ...

The involvement of the proamnion in the development of the anterior amnion fold in the chicken. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The amnion was one of the most important evolutionary novelties in the animal kingdom, allowing independence of water for reproduction and subsequent exploration of terrestrial habitats, and is therefore an important structure to understand evolution. We
