Oct-4 mRNA and protein expression during human preimplantation development
1 Mar 2004
Abstract excerpt
The transcription factor OCT-4 is regarded as a critical factor in controlling mammalian early embryonic development because of its role in toti-/pluripotency. In human preimplantation embryos, OCT-4 studies are limited to RNA analysis of abnormally developing embryos. This study thoroughly investigated the expression pattern of OCT-4 throughout the human preimplantation development. Expression was examined by...
