• Mouse embryo assay to evaluate polydimethylsiloxane embryo-toxicity. (nc3rs.org.uk)
  • The pronuclear H3K9me2 depositing assay and also the pre-implantation embryonic improvement potential were evaluated to look into the effect associated with fertilization-dependent ERK1/2 upon zygotic reprogramming as well as developing prospective. (cftrpathway.com)
  • The team at University of Leeds led by Dr Virginia Pensabene has developed a novel and reliable microfluidic device that improves the developmental competence of in vitro -derived mouse embryos to allow the use of non-surgical embryo transfer (NSET) in the generation of transgenic mice.

  • The team at University of Leeds led by Dr Virginia Pensabene has developed a novel and reliable microfluidic device that improves the developmental competence of in vitro -derived mouse embryos and their implantation potential, enabling the use of non-surgical embryo transfer (NSET) in the generation of transgenic mice. (nc3rs.org.uk)
  • The aim of this Challenge was to generate an approach that improves the implantation rates of early stage embryos when combined with extended in vitro culture and non-surgical embryo transfer techniques. (nc3rs.org.uk)
  • Sponsored by MRC Harwell, the EASE Challenge aims to generate an approach that improves the implantation rates of early stage embryos when combined with extended in vitro culture and non-surgical embryo transfer techniques. (nc3rs.org.uk)
  • For example, pre-implantation genetic diagnosis ("PGD") has grown to be a common service at fertility clinics, allowing couples undergoing in vitro fertilization to test multiple embryos for genetic disorders before deciding which one to implant. (nyu.edu)
  • Genetically altered (GA) mice are used extensively to study the function and regulation of genes and their role in human development and disease. (nc3rs.org.uk)
  • In 2015, approximately 50% of the animals used for scientific procedures in the UK were for the creation and breeding of genetically modified animals, the majority of which are mice (Home Office, 2015). (nc3rs.org.uk)
  • Advances in the biotechnology industry have increased scientists' understanding of the human genome and enhanced their ability to genetically modify eggs, sperm, and human embryos. (nyu.edu)
  • If biotech scientists have the ability to manipulate the genes of an embryo or gamete cell for non-therapeutic purposes, it could be argued that these genetically modified cells are in fact patentable "inventions," given that the material was not, in that particular sequence, naturally occurring.

  • This pre-clinical model demonstrates the high efficiency and potential of the MST technique, not only to prevent the transmission of mtDNA mutations, but also as a new potential treatment for patients with certain forms of infertility refractory to current clinical strategies.
