Theresults showed that transfection of pre-implantation embryos at 4-cell stage with 5 Mantisense oligo had no effect on in vitro blastocyst development. However, transfection with10 to 40 M antisense oligo had reduced in vitro blastocyst development to 15, 10% and 0; Forthe embryos which exposed to 40 M As arrested at the 16-cell stage, there was no blastocystformation within the heat shock groups. In contrast, transfection had no effect on embryonicsensitivity to heat shock, above 25% of embryos developed to blastocyst stage in controlgroups.展开更多
