Effect of arachidonic acid on pre- and post-hatching in vitro bovine embryo development
CONCLUSIONS: Pre-hatching embryos are mostly irresponsive to AA, whereas AA was observed to have negative effects during early post-hatching development.IMPLICATIONS: AA does not improve in vitro bovine embryo development and is not required up to early post-hatching stages.PMID:37430407 | DOI:10.1071/RD23053 (Source: Reproduction, Fertility, and Development)

Extremely low-frequency electromagnetic field exposure alters DNA methylation levels in the endometrium of pigs during the peri-implantation period
CONCLUSIONS: ELF-EMF may alter the level of DNA methylation in the endometrium during the peri-implantation period.IMPLICATIONS: Changes in the DNA methylation induced by ELF-EMF may affect the transcriptomic profile of the endometrium and disturb physiological processes accompanying implantation and embryo development.PMID:37400364 | DOI:10.1071/RD22266 (Source: Reproduction, Fertility, and Development)

Increased DNA strand breaks in spermatozoa of Pxt1 knockout mice
CONCLUSIONS: Pxt1 induces cell death; thus, the higher sperm DFI of mice with targeted deletion of Pxt1 suggests some function for this gene in the elimination of male germ cells with chromatin damage.IMPLICATIONS: Ablation of mouse Pxt1 results in enhanced DFI. In humans, the homologous PXT1 gene shares 74% similarity with the mouse gene; thus, it can be considered a candidate for mutation screening in patients with increased DFI.PMID:37393946 | DOI:10.1071/RD23061 (Source: Reproduction, Fertility, and Development)

Cytokine supplemented maturation medium improved development to term following somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) in cattle
CONCLUSIONS: Cytokine supplementation increased efficiency of in vitro production of IVF and SCNT embryos and in vivo development of SCNT embryos to term.IMPLICATIONS: Cytokine supplementation is beneficial to embryo culture systems, which may shed light on requirements of early embryo development.PMID:37308165 | DOI:10.1071/RD23011 (Source: Reproduction, Fertility, and Development)
