Neurotrophin-4 (NT-4), a neurotrophic factor, appears to affect early embryonic development
because it is secreted not only by neurons but also by oviductal and uterine epithelial cells …

Neurotrophin-4 (NT-4) is a neurotrophic factor that plays an important role in follicular
development and oocyte maturation. However, it is not yet known whether NT-4 is related to …

Neurotrophin-4 (NT-4), a granulosa cell-derived factor and a member of the neurotrophin
family, is known to promote follicular development and oocyte maturation in mammals …

Signaling pathways and transcription factors are involved in porcine embryonic
development. Here, we demonstrate that glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3) inhibitor …

Contents The consistent failure to isolate bona fide pluripotent cell lines from livestock
indicates that the underlying mechanisms of early lineage specification are poorly defined …

Neurotrophins and basic fibroblast growth factor are ligands of tyrosine kinase receptors,
though they bind to different tyrosine kinase receptor classes. Neurotrophins bind to receptor …

Culture conditions affect the development of mammalian embryos in vitro. Kinetin belongs to
the family of N6‐substituted adenine derivates and promotes cell division, synthesis of DNA …

Inhibition of both MEK1/2 and glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3; 2i system) facilitates the
maintenance of naïve stemness for embryonic stem cells in various mammalian species …

Early embryonic losses are common in cloned embryos in the current cloning system.
However, the reasons for embryonic losses in early developmental stages of cloned …

Developmental defects in somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) embryos are principally
attributable to incomplete epigenetic reprogramming. Small-molecule inhibitors such as …
