Valproic Acid Enhances <i>In Vitro</i> Development and Oct-3/4 Expression of Miniature Pig Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer Embryos
4 Feb 2010
Abstract excerpt
The present study was carried out to examine the effects of valproic acid (VPA), a histone deacetylase inhibitor, on in vitro development of miniature pig somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) embryos and on expression of a mouse Oct-3/4 promoter-driven enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) gene (EGFP expression only detected in Oct-3/4-expressing cells) introduced into donor cells for SCNT during their...
