An appropriate environment to optimize porcine preimplantation embryo production in vitro
is required as genetically modified pigs have become indispensable for biomedical research …

Objective The present study analyzed the influence of co-transferring embryos with high and
low cloning efficiencies produced via somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) on pregnancy …

The aim of the present study was to improve the penetration during in vitro fertilization (IVF)
of a frozen lot of epididymal sperm with a notoriously low fertilization ability of a Ban boar …

Contents Fertility of boar spermatozoa is changed after ejaculation in vivo and in vitro.
During processing for in vitro fertilization (IVF), although spermatozoa are induced …

We investigated the effect of 3-iodothyronamine (T1AM) on thermogenic substrates in brown
adipocytes (BAs). BAs isolated from the stromal fraction of rat brown adipose tissue were …

Contents Technologies to edit the zygote genome have revolutionized biomedical research
not only for the creation of animal models for the study of human disease but also for the …

Abstract Although L-Arginine (ARG) has been reported as a promising bovine sperm
capacitation agent, its effects on embryo development are still poorly understood. Herein, we …

This study was carried out to examine the effects of manganese (Mn) on the developmental
competence of porcine oocytes during in vitro maturation (IVM) after parthenogenetic …

Coculture with somatic cells is an alternative to improve suboptimal in vitro culture
conditions. In pigs, IVF is related to poor male pronuclear formation and high rates of …

The aim of this study was to evaluate if the positive effects of inhibiting histone deacetylase
enzymes on cell reprogramming and development of somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) …
