Moving Inward: Establishing the Mammalian Inner Cell Mass. [PDF]
Early in mammalian development, a few cells move to the center of the embryo to establish the inner cell mass-the early precursor of the fetus. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Samarage et al. (2015) shed light on how these cells move inward.

Numb is not a critical regulator of Notch-mediated cell fate decisions in the developing chick inner ear. [PDF]
The Notch signaling pathway controls differentiation of hair cells and supporting cells in the vertebrate inner ear. Here, we have investigated whether Numb, a known regulator of Notch activity in Drosophila, is involved in this process in the embryonic ...

BackgroundElective single blastocyst transfer (eSBT) is considered to reduce the incidence of multiple pregnancy compared to double embryo transfer. Blastocyst selection is the key to achieving pregnancy.

Generating porcine chimeras using inner cell mass cells and parthenogenetic preimplantation embryos. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The development and validation of stem cell therapies using induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells can be optimized through translational research using pigs as large animal models, because pigs have the closest characteristics to humans among ...

Role of the inner cell mass in controlling implantation in the mouse [PDF]
Summary. Studies with mouse blastocysts and trophoblastic vesicles showed that the inner cell mass was not essential for controlling trophoblast activity during delay of implantation.

RAF kinase activity regulates neuroepithelial cell proliferation and neuronal progenitor cell differentiation during early inner ear development [PDF]
Background: Early inner ear development requires the strict regulation of cell proliferation, survival, migration and differentiation, coordinated by the concerted action of extrinsic and intrinsic factors.

The segregation of the trophectoderm (TE) from the inner cell mass (ICM) in the mouse blastocyst is determined by position-dependent Hippo signaling. However, the window of responsiveness to Hippo signaling, the exact timing of lineage commitment and the

Contribution of epigenetic landscapes and transcription factors to X-chromosome reactivation in the inner cell mass. [PDF]
X-chromosome inactivation is established during early development. In mice, transcriptional repression of the paternal X-chromosome (Xp) and enrichment in epigenetic marks such as H3K27me3 is achieved by the early blastocyst stage.

BackgroundPrevious studies have arguably associated poor embryo morphology with low birth weight in singletons following single embryo transfer. However, the association between birth weight and specific morphological features in the cleavage stage ...
