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

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

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temporal Divergence in the Pattern of Messenger RNA Expression in Bovine Embryos Cultured from the Zygote to Blastocyst Stage In Vitro or In Vivo

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the relative abundance of the transcripts studied varies throughout the preimplantation period and is strongly influenced by the culture environment, and changes in transcript abundance in blastocyst stage embryos are in many cases a consequence of perturbed transcription earlier in development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anaplasma marginale (Rickettsiales: Anaplasmataceae): recent advances in defining host-pathogen adaptations of a tick-borne rickettsia.

TL;DR: The A. marginale/vector/host studies described herein could serve as a model for research on other tick-borne rickettsiae and prospects for development of control strategies by use of pathogen and tick-derived antigens are discussed.
