Download or read book Concepts in Mammalian Embryogenesis written by Michael I. Sherman and published by MIT Press (MA). This book was released on 1977-01 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, the first in the MIT Cell Monograph Series, offers a thorough overview of a few selected topics in mammalian embryogenesis that are of current interest and interrelate well with each other. Most of the studies described deal with the mouse embryo, since laboratory maintenance of mice is convenient and the genetics of the mouse are well established. One of the underlying themes throughout the chapters is the programming of events in early embryogenesis. The activation of &"new&" genes, which begins early in embryogenesis, complements preexisting gene action and helps to provide the developing embryo with the machinery necessary for DNA, RNA, and protein synthesis, and with the enzymes required for intermediary metabolism (&"maintenance&" gene products). The synthesis of &"differentiative&" gene products, those which irreversibly route cells along different developmental pathways, must also be taking place prior to, or at, implantation. These new gene products, and what we know of their functions, are discussed in detail. Another, less understood area explored is the role of the genes that initiate differentiation in early embryonic cells. Recent biological studies have revealed that a relationship exists between the position of a cell relative to other cells in the embryo and its ultimate fate; however, embryologists have yet to explain how the microenvironment can trigger a cell to embark on a specific course of differentiation. Various methods used in investigating this problem&-such as microanalytic techniques or the study of similar phenomena in teratocarcinomas&-are described, and the relationships between embryos and teratocarcinomas are thoroughly considered. A chapter on T mutations in the mouse has been included because of the potential of this system for contributing to our knowledge of the mechanisms involved in development of the mammalian embryo. The use of recent immunological, histochemical, and biochemical studies of cell surface properties as markers of genetic programming during embryogenesis is described; and a chapter on the possible role of viruses in the control of embryonic development completes the volume. &"In summary,&" the editor states, &"the chapters in this monograph demonstrate that mammalian embryologists are now equipped with morphological, biochemical, and molecular biological markers of early embryonic development and differentiation. Model systems are available for testing ideas of genetic and epigenetic control mechanisms. With proper use of these resources, our understanding of mammalian embryogenesis could be revolutionized within the next decade.&"

This book was released on 2020-07-31 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of the recent advances in embryo modeling techniques, and at the request of the Office of Science Policy in the Office of the Director at the National Institutes of Health, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, hosted a 1-day public workshop that would explore the state of the science of mammalian embryo model systems. The workshop, which took place on January 17, 2020, featured a combination of presentations, panels, and general discussions, during which panelists and participants offered a broad range of perspectives. Participants considered whether embryo model systems - especially those that use nonhuman primate cells - can be used to predict the function of systems made with human cells. Presentations provided an overview of the current state of the science of in vitro development of human trophoblast. This publication summarizes the presentation and discussion of the workshop.

Download or read book Textbook of Clinical Embryology written by Kevin Coward and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The success of Assisted Reproductive Technology is critically dependent upon the use of well optimized protocols, based upon sound scientific reasoning, empirical observations and evidence of clinical efficacy. Recently, the treatment of infertility has experienced a revolution, with the routine adoption of increasingly specialized molecular biological techniques and advanced methods for the manipulation of gametes and embryos. This textbook – inspired by the postgraduate degree program at the University of Oxford – guides students through the multidisciplinary syllabus essential to ART laboratory practice, from basic culture techniques and micromanipulation to laboratory management and quality assurance, and from endocrinology to molecular biology and research methods. Written for all levels of IVF practitioners, reproductive biologists and technologists involved in human reproductive science, it can be used as a reference manual for all IVF labs and as a textbook by undergraduates, advanced students, scientists and professionals involved in gamete, embryo or stem cell biology.
Download or read book Manipulation of Mammalian Development written by Ralph B.L. Gwatkin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developmental biology has been transformed recently by discoveries in the fields of molecular biology, cell biology, and immunology. New ways of manip ulating mammalian development are uncovering control mechanisms and ena bling us to apply them in solving practical problems in animal production and human health. This book outlines some of these new manipulations and how they have contributed to the present state of developmental biology. Chapter 1 describes gene transfer by micro injection of cloned recombinant DNA into zygotes. Although the factors that affect transformation frequencies and integration sites are still unknown, such techniques offer a number of exciting prospects. Research models for human disease coula be artificially created and desirable characteristics in agricultural animals could be - hanced. . The theme of cell-to-cell transfer is continued in Chapters 2 and 3. Chapter 2 describes pronuclear transplantation by Sendai virus-induced fusion of the karyoplast with the enucleated embryo. Using this procedure, it has been dem onstrated that both male and female genomes are essential for normal develop ment, although the reason for this is not yet understood. Chapter 3 describes studies on the fusion of whole oocytes. .

Download or read book Cell Signaling During Mammalian Early Embryo Development written by Henry J. Leese and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-05-08 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book considers signaling events from the zygote embryo through to the blastocyst with relevant data from embryonic stem (ES) cells, including dialogue with the extracellular environment and with the maternal tract during the implantation process. Application of the knowledge described to improve the success of human and animal assisted conception is considered where appropriate, but the focus is largely on fundamental rather than applied cell/molecular biology, as this is the area that has historically been neglected. While the general features of metabolism during preimplantation development are well established, especially in terms of nutrient requirements, uptake and fate, remarkably little is known about early embryo signaling events, intracellular or intercellular, between individual embryos in vitro or with the female reproductive tract in vivo. This contrasts with the wealth of information on cell signaling in somatic cells and tissues, as a glance at any textbook of biochemistry illustrates. This lack of information is such that our understanding of the molecular cell biology of early embryos -- a prerequisite to defining the mechanisms which regulate development at this critical stage of the life cycle -- is seriously incomplete. This volume is the first to address this issue by describing the current state of knowledge on cell signaling during mammalian early embryo development and highlighting priority areas for research.
