Peptide growth factors and preimplantation development.
This paper examines some of the problems and questions that must be considered in relation to research on the role of growth factors in preimplantation embryos. It reviews and summarizes the large body of work on gene expression of growth factor receptors and ligands in preimplantation embryos and in oviduct and uterine tissue. It also reviews the literature on the effects of gene knockout in p...
متن کاملPreimplantation embryo development in vitro: cooperative interactions among embryos and role of growth factors.
We have established a model that shows cooperative interaction among preimplantation embryos and the role of growth factors on their development and growth. Two-cell mouse embryos cultured singly in 25-microliters microdrops had inferior development to blastocysts and lower cell numbers per blastocyst compared with those cultured in groups of 5 or 10. The inferior development of singly cultured...
متن کاملEffect of various growth-promoting factors on preimplantation bovine embryo development in vitro.
One-cell bovine embryos produced by in vitro oocyte maturation (IVM) and in vitro fertilization (IVF) were cultured in chemically defined medium (CDM) to which the following growth-promoting factors were added separately: transferrin (Tf, 10 ug/ml), epidermal growth factor (EGF), transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha), transforming growth factor-betal (TGF-beta1), insulin-like growth fact...
متن کاملGrowth factors effects on preimplantation development of mouse embryos exposed to tumor necrosis factor alpha.
The success rates of assisted reproduction techniques are still unsatisfactory. Relatively few in vitro cultured embryos reach the blastocyst stage. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the protective potential of epidermal growth factor (EGF), insulin-like growth factors 1 and 2 (IGF-I, IGF-II) and stem cell factor (SCF) on in vitro development of pre-implantation mouse embryos exposed to ...
متن کاملPreimplantation growth factor physiology.
The robust independence of preimplantation embryo development in vitro suggests that the developmental programme is autonomous. The rapid accumulation of evidence during the last decade for participation of many hormones, growth factors and their receptors in these early stages of embryogenesis has challenged this conclusion. In this review, the insulin and epidermal growth factor families, whi...
