Maternally provided LSD1/KDM1A enables the maternal-to-zygotic transition and prevents defects that manifest postnatally by Jadiel A Wasson, Ashley K Simon, Dexter A Myrick, Gernot Wolf, Shawn Driscoll, Samuel L Pfaff, Todd S Macfarlan, David J Katz

“…Here we show that loss of maternal LSD1/KDM1A in mice results in embryonic arrest at the 1-2 cell stage, with arrested embryos failing to undergo the maternal-to-zygotic transition. This suggests that LSD1/KDM1A maternal reprogramming is conserved. …”

The embryonic transcriptome of Parhyale hawaiensis reveals different dynamics of microRNAs and mRNAs during the maternal-zygotic transition by Llilians Calvo, Maria Birgaoanu, Tom Pettini, Matthew Ronshaugen, Sam Griffiths-Jones

“…We examine the dynamic expression of microRNAs and mRNAs during the maternal-zygotic transition. Our data suggest that zygotic genome activation occurs in two waves in Parhyale with microRNAs transcribed almost exclusively in the second wave. …”

A comparison of co-culture with oviductal epithelial cells and growth on porcine zygote medium (PZM) on porcine embryos development by Chalothon Amporn, Sarawut Duongmawong, Somchit Guntaprom, Wilasinee Srisanyong, Phalita Koonnadilokpot, Sirikanda Thanasuwan, Dechawut Bunyaluk, Juggrid Jugsumrit, Jakrit Yaeram

“…Matured oocytes were fertilized in basal IVF-media (modified Tris-buffered medium; mTBM). The porcine zygotes were randomly cultured in different culture conditions as follows: (1)a chemically defined media with porcine zygote medium (PZM), and (2) co-culture with the oviductal epithelial cells for embryo development. …”
