More than a decade has now passed since the birth of the first endangered species
produced from an adult somatic cell reprogrammed by somatic cell nuclear transfer. At that …

Historical overexploitation of marine mammals, combined with present-day pressures, has
resulted in severely depleted populations, with many species listed as threatened or …

Background Interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT) has been regarded as a
potential alternative for rescuing highly endangered species and can be used as a model for …

Although interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT) has potential applications in the
conservation of exotic species, an in vitro developmental block has been observed in …

Abnormal epigenetic reprogramming, such as histone acetylation, might cause low
efficiency of interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT). This study was conducted to …

Determining reproductive rates of marine mammal populations can give insight into their
persistence and resilience in changing environments. As our marine environments continue …

We previously demonstrated that the histone deacetylase inhibitor, trichostatin A (TSA),
improves the development of cat-cow interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT) …
