Transcriptional activity and nucleolar ultrastructure of embryonic rabbit nuclei after transplantation to enucleated oocytes.

abstract：:In vitro culture of mammalian preimplantation embryos is associated with various developmental disorders such as retardation in development and cell damage. The molecular mechanisms underlying these processes are poorly understood. One of the possible reasons may be the unphysiologically high oxygen concentration used...
