Methods Human specific point probes cep2, cep6, tel2 and 13q14.2, 21q22.13 combining fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) technology were used to test trophectoderm cells of blastocyst and blastomeres of development arrest nuclear transfer (NT) embryos. Results A total of 209 reconstructed embryos were recovered, and the rate of blastocyst formation was 3.8% (8/209). FISH signals showed that chromosomal abnormalities were present in 2 blastocysts (2/8) and 146 development arrest embryos (146/201). Conclusion The rate of blastocyst formation is low, and reconstituted embryos of development arrest showed extensive chromosome abnormalities, suggesting that a chromosomal mechanism may underlie their developmental arrest.展开更多

After cultivation in two kinds of medium M199+10%FBS or RD+10%FBS, 112 of them developed to 2-cell stage (62.2%) and 26 to morula stage (14.4%) and 20 of them eventually developed to blastocyst stage (11.1%). There is no significant difference for the cleavage rates in two groups of reconstituted embryos derived from G 0 -stage and non-G 0 stage donor cells respectively. However, G 0-stage donor cells could result in higher rate of 8-cell16-cell stage embryos significantly (P<0.05), as well as higher rate of blastocysts (P<0.01). It seems that using two different culture systems had no significant effects on the cleavage rate, morula rate or blastocyst rate (P>0.05).展开更多
