EZH2 is essential for development of mouse preimplantation embryos.
Enhancer of zeste homologue 2 (Ezh2) is essential for the development of the early mouse preimplantation embryo. Loss of Ezh2 results in embryonic lethality in mice. Ezh2-deficient embryos display impaired outgrowth potential, defective establishment of Ezh2-null embryonic stem (ES) cells and adherence and differentiation of the trophoblast layer into giant cells. We investigated if Ezh2 contro...
متن کاملCell polarity regulator PARD6B is essential for trophectoderm formation in the preimplantation mouse embryo.
In preimplantation mouse development, the first cell lineages to be established are the trophectoderm (TE) and inner cell mass. TE possesses epithelial features, including apical-basal cell polarity and intercellular junctions, which are crucial to generate a fluid-filled cavity in the blastocyst. Homologs of the partitioning defective (par) genes in Caenorhabditis elegans are critical regulato...
متن کاملCell membrane regions in preimplantation mouse embryos.
Cell membrane regions characterized by alkaline phosphatase activity are described in cleaving mouse embryos and early blastocysts. Enzyme activity is demonstrated by light and electron microscopy, from the late 4-cell stage onwards, on the cell surfaces between blastomeres but not on the outer surface of the embryo. Experiments with dissociated morulae show that this is probably not an artifac...
متن کاملThe Evaluation of Melatonin Effect on In-Vitro Development of Mouse Preimplantation Embryos
Purpose: Melatonin promotes in-vitro embryo development in different species. This study studied the effects of melatonin on in-vitro mouse preimplantation embryo development. Materials and Methods: Two-cell embryos were obtained from oviduct of 6-8 weeks female NMRI mice 48 hours after administration of an intra-peritoneal injection of 5 IU/ml pregnant mares’ serum gonadotrophin and subsequent...
متن کاملThe effect of 5-bromodeoxyuridine on cell division and differentiation of preimplantation mouse embryos.
Mouse embryos exposed to concentrations of 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BUdR) ranging from 0-01 to 1-0 mug/ml in vitro for two days from the 8-cell stage exhibit a concentration-dependent decrease in the frequency of normal blastocysts and decrease in average cell number per embryo. A 20-h exposure was adequate to achieve the full BUdR response. Both effects were eliminated in the presence of excess th...
