Reproduction (Cambridge, England).Reproduction.2005 Sep;130(3):359-66.
In this study, we investigated the development, the cell number of the blastocyst, and apoptosis in rabbit nuclear transfer (NT) embryos derived from adult fibroblasts and cumulus cells as compared with embryos derived from in vivo fertilization and in vitro culture. The developmental rate and the t

Development (Cambridge, England).Development.1990 Sep;110(1):221-7.
125I-labelled epidermal growth factor (125I-EGF) and 125I-labelled insulin-like growth factor-I (125I-IGF-I) bound to trophoderm cells from pig blastocysts obtained on days 15-19 of pregnancy. Specific binding was detected on freshly isolated cell suspensions and on cells cultured for several days.
