β-hydroxybutyrate reduces blastocyst viability via trophectoderm-mediated metabolic aberrations in mice
20 Jul 2022
Abstract excerpt
STUDY QUESTION: What is the effect of the ketone β-hydroxybutyrate (βOHB) on preimplantation mouse embryo development, metabolism, epigenetics and post-transfer viability? SUMMARY ANSWER: In vitro βOHB exposure at ketogenic diet (KD)-relevant serum concentrations significantly impaired preimplantation mouse embryo development, induced aberrant glycolytic metabolism and reduced post-transfer fetal viability in a...
