Successful vitrification of bovine blastocysts, derived by in vitro maturation and fertilizationMolecular Reproduction and Development - Tập 34 Số 3 - Trang 266-271 - 1993

AbstractBovine blastocysts were produced through maturation, fertilization, and
development in vitro. For vitrification, solutions designated EFS, GFS, and PFS
were prepared; these were 40% ethylene glycol, 40% glycerol, and 40% propylene
glycol, respectively, diluted in modified phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS)
containing 30% Ficoll + 0.5 M sucrose. The embryos were exposed to the solutions

Vitrification of mouse oocytes: Improved rates of survival, fertilization, and development to blastocystsMolecular Reproduction and Development - Tập 29 Số 4 - Trang 373-378 - 1991

AbstractRall and Fahy's (1985) vitrification procedure for the cryopreservation
of 8‐cell embryos was applied to unfertilized mouse oocytes. Unchanged, this
method resulted in a mean of 24.1% of vitrified oocytes fertilizing and
developing to blastocysts in vitro. Exposure of oocytes to the cryoprotectant
media, but without the vitrification, resulted in 30.8% developing to
blastocysts. Modificati... hiện toàn bộ
Efficient propagation of single cells accutase‐dissociated human embryonic stem cellsMolecular Reproduction and Development - Tập 75 Số 5 - Trang 818-827 - 2008

AbstractHuman embryonic stem cells (hESCs) hold great promise for cell‐based
therapies and drug screening applications. However, growing and processing large
quantities of undifferentiated hESCs is a challenging task. Conventionally,
hESCs are passaged as clusters, which can limit their growth efficiency and use
in downstream applications. This study demonstrates that hESCs can be passaged
as sing... hiện toàn bộ
Altered mRNA expression patterns in bovine blastocysts after fertilisation in vitro using flow‐cytometrically sex‐sorted spermMolecular Reproduction and Development - Tập 74 Số 8 - Trang 931-940 - 2007

AbstractSperm‐sexing has been used to produce embryos and offspring of a
pre‐determined sex in a number of species. However, the fertility of sex‐sorted
sperm is reduced and the full effects of sperm‐sexing remain to be elucidated.
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the potential effects of
sex‐sorted sperm on mRNA expression patterns of developmentally important genes
employing i... hiện toàn bộ
Aberrant protein expression is associated with decreased developmental potential in porcine cumulus–oocyte complexesMolecular Reproduction and Development - Tập 77 Số 1 - Trang 51-58 - 2010
Melissa Paczkowski, Rebecca L. Krisher
AbstractOocyte developmental competence is progressively obtained during
pubertal development in females. Poor developmental potential in oocytes derived
from prepubertal females suggests that essential processes required for oocyte
development have not been fulfilled. The objective of this experiment was to
analyze the protein profiles of porcine cumulus–oocyte complexes (COC) derived
from cyclic... hiện toàn bộ
