Bovine Embryo Culture in the Presence or Absence of Serum: Implications for Blastocyst Development, Cryotolerance, and Messenger RNA Expression

TL;DR: It is shown that conditions of postfertilization culture, in particular, the presence of serum in the medium, can affect the speed of embryo development and the quality of the resulting blastocysts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term effect of in vitro culture of mouse embryos with serum on mRNA expression of imprinting genes, development, and behavior

TL;DR: Mice derived from embryos cultured with FCS exhibited specific behavioral alterations in anxiety and displayed deficiencies in implicit memories, indicating that long-term programming of postnatal development, growth, and physiology can be affected irreversibly during the preimplantation period of embryo development by suboptimal in vitro culture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of Differential Messenger RNA Expression Between Bovine Blastocysts Produced in Different Culture Systems: Implications for Blastocyst Quality

TL;DR: The study of 7 differentially expressed mRNAs known to be involved in developmental process in the embryo suggests roles for apoptosis, oxidative stress, gap junctions, and differentiation in the determination of embryo quality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oocyte and embryo quality: effect of origin, culture conditions and gene expression patterns.

TL;DR: Evidence for an effect of oocyte origin and/or in vitro maturation conditions on the developmental capacity and gene expression patterns in the oocyte is demonstrated and the well-documented effects of post-fertilization culture environment on embryo gene expression and quality are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Progesterone and conceptus elongation in cattle: a direct effect on the embryo or an indirect effect via the endometrium?

TL;DR: Data provide clear evidence to support the hypothesis that P(4)-induced changes in the uterine environment are responsible for the advancement in conceptus elongation reported previously in cattle and that, interestingly, the embryo does not need to be present during the period of high P( 4) in order to exhibit advanced elongation.
