An Epigenetic Modifier Results in Improved <i>In Vitro</i> Blastocyst Production after Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer
1 Sept 2007
Abstract excerpt
The present study was designed to examine the effect of trichostatin A (TSA), an inhibitor of histone deacetylase, on development of porcine cloned embryos. Our results showed that treatment of cloned embryos derived from sow oocytes with 50 nM TSA for up to 24 h after the onset of activation could significantly improve blastocyst yield compared to the control (46.4+/-4.6% vs 17.7+/-4.9% for treated and untreated...
