This study investigates the role of PKC inhibition in mouse zygotes, finding it suppresses 2-cell stage development and perinuclear vesicle formation.

This study uses a cell-penetrating peptide fused to Emi2 to activate mouse oocytes, showing it can induce pronuclear formation and blastocyst development.

This study identifies RTL4 as a microglial gene responsive to noradrenaline, showing its expression dynamics and role in brain adaptation and neuronal network development.

The paper identifies novel imprinted genes in mouse blastocysts and shows that their expression is mostly independent of DNA methylation but associated with H3K27me3 marks.

The paper shows that transcription starts much earlier in mouse and human one-cell embryos than previously thought, driven mainly by the maternal genome.

This paper develops a BOC-dependent CRISPR-Cas9 system for controlled genome editing in mammals, enabling heritable edits only after BOC exposure.
