Human blastocysts are comprised of the first three cell lineages of the embryo: trophectoderm, epiblast, and primitive endoderm, all of which are essential for early development and organ formation1,2
Piwi proteins are important for germ cell development and function in almost all animals studied thus far. These proteins are guided to specific targets, such as transposable elements, by small guide
Antisense DNA inhibition of gene expression was explored as an approach toward elucidating mechanisms regulating development of preimplantation mammalian embryos. Specifically, a role for the c-myc pr
