Abstract excerpt
STUDY QUESTION: What is the role of POU class 5 homeobox 1 (POU5F1) in human preimplantation development and how does it compare with the mouse model? SUMMARY ANSWER: POU5F1 is required for successful development of mouse and human embryos to the blastocyst stage as knockout embryos exhibited a significantly lower blastocyst formation rate, accompanied by lack of inner cell mass (ICM) formation. WHAT IS KNOWN...
