SNAI1 and SNAI2 are asymmetrically expressed at the 2-cell stage and become segregated to the TE in the mouse blastocyst. [PDF]
SNAI1 and SNAI2 are transcription factors that initiate Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal cell transitions throughout development and in cancer metastasis. Here we show novel expression of SNAI1 and SNAI2 throughout mouse preimplantation development revealing ...

Glucose metabolism in the trophectoderm and inner cell mass of the rabbit embryo [PDF]
Summary. The metabolism of glucose in the intact Day-6 and -7 post coitum (p.c.) rabbit blastocyst and in the separated trophectoderm and inner cell mass (ICM) of the Day-7 p.c. embryo was investigated. At Day-6 p.c., glucose traversed the trophectoderm with a half-time of 39 ± 9·3 min, and was metabolized to CO2 at a rate of 25·5 ± 1·6 nmol·cm−2·h−1 ...

Completely ES cell-derived mice produced by tetraploid complementation using inner cell mass (ICM) deficient blastocysts. [PDF]
Tetraploid complementation is often used to produce mice from embryonic stem cells (ESCs) by injection of diploid (2n) ESCs into tetraploid (4n) blastocysts (ESC-derived mice). This method has also been adapted to mouse cloning and the derivation of mice

We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Effect of Different Volume of Microdrop Culture on B6D2F1 Mice Oogenesis
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different volume (100 μl vs. 2 ml) of microdrop culture on B6D2F1 mice oogenesis. In the present study, B6D2F1/CrljOri F1 mice were utilized in order to maximize oogenesis.

Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.
