Researchers from Japan and France have successfully reconstituted the development of mouse egg cells, known as oocytes, from ...

During embryonic development, the body is made in stages, starting from the head and ending in the tail. In the first transitional stage, there is a switch from head to trunk development; and in ...

Among genetically identical "agouti viable yellow" (Avy) mice, some are brown and lean while others are yellow and obese.

Researchers used OCT to uncover new insights into how the oviduct transports preimplantation embryos toward the uterus for pregnancy. They captured this in vivo 3D OCT image, which shows the mouse ...

Researchers have discovered a key transition in early embryonic development is facilitated by decreasing levels of a viral protein inserted into the DNA of our early animal ancestors. Researchers at ...

Embryonic sex development is a complex process. You may have heard the idea that, at first, all embryos are female until later in their development. This isn’t exactly true.

By generating a Setd2-CD knockin mouse model, the researchers compared it with a Setd2 knockout (KO) model to understand the physiological functions of SETD2 in mouse embryonic development.
