Effects of klotho protein or klotho knockdown in porcine oocytes at different stages
Zygote, 2023 SummaryKlotho is a protein that plays different functions in female fertility. We have previously reported that klotho protein supplementation during in vitro maturation improves porcine embryo development, while klotho knockout for somatic cell cloning completely blocks full-term pregnancy in vivo.
