Knockdown of Maternal Homeobox Transcription Factor SEBOX Gene Impaired Early Embryonic Development in Porcine Parthenotes
A number of germ cell-specific transcription factors essential for ovarian formation and folliculogenesis have been identified and studied. However, the role of these factors during early embryonic development has been poorly explored. In the present study, we investigated the role of SEBOX, a maternal homeobox transcription factor, during early embryonic development in porcine parthenotes. mRN...
متن کاملMaternal Influences on the Developing Fetus
Observations of a link between pregnant woman and fetus, and speculation on its nature abound throughout history, literature, and across cultures. Despite the ubiquity of the phenomenon, relatively little is known about the manner in which the development of the fetus is influenced by the maternal psychological context. Scientific inquiry into the nature of this relationship has been historical...
متن کاملProgesterone influences cytoplasmic maturation in porcine oocytes developing in vitro
Progesterone (P4), an ovarian steroid hormone, is an important regulator of female reproduction. In this study, we explored the influence of progesterone on porcine oocyte nuclear maturation and cytoplasmic maturation and development in vitro. We found that the presence of P4 during oocyte maturation did not inhibit polar body extrusions but significantly increased glutathione and decreased rea...
متن کاملIntegration of autophagy, proteasomal degradation, unfolded protein response and apoptosis.
A single cell has the potential to kill an entire human being. Efforts to cure cancer are limited by survival of individual cancer cells despite immune surveillance and toxic therapies. Understanding the intricate network of pathways that maintain cellular homeostasis and mediate stress response or default into cell death is critical to the development of strategies to eradicate cancer. Autopha...
متن کاملIdentification of maternal mRNAs in porcine parthenotes at the 2-cell stage: a comparison with the blastocyst stage.
Successful embryonic development is dependent on the temporal and stage-specific expression of appropriate genes. Currently, information on specific gene expression during early cleavage-stage embryos before zygotic gene activation (ZGA) is limited. In the present study, we compare gene expression between porcine 2-cell and blastocyst stage parthenotes to identify genes that are specifically or...
