Influence of Intergeneric/Interspecies Mitochondrial Injection; Parthenogenetic Development of Bovine Oocytes after Injection of Mitochondria Derived from Somatic Cells
1 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
Interspecies/intergeneric mitochondrial heteroplasmy can occur in interspecies/intergeneric hybrid embryos or following nuclear transfer. In the present study, intergeneric buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) mitochondria (WB-mt) or interspecies murine (Mus spretus) mitochondria (M-mt) were injected into bovine (Bos taurus) oocytes, and the subsequent embryonic development was characterized. Fibroblast mitochondria (WB-mt...
