An international research team has provided a detailed insight into how the spatial organization of genetic material is established in the cell nucleus of early embryos within the first hours after ...

Studying the early development of human embryos is challenging due to ethical constraints and technical difficulties. Therefore, animal models are often used to understand the biological processes ...

They show that rather than exclusively providing energy to the cell, glycolysis is able to control, at different stages of early embryonic development, cell fate decisions and the end-state ...

An international research team led by Helmholtz Munich has, for the first time, provided a detailed insight into how the spatial organization of genetic material is established in the cell nucleus of ...

Organoids and synthetic embryos mark a pivotal shift in biomedical research, highlighting the need for ethical oversight amid ...

"This study is a step forward in understanding the development of early embryos. With more knowledge, we might be able to improve human fertility in the future," Mads Lerdrup, researcher at CRESCO ...

“When we compared the development of the guinea pig embryo to our previous work, we were very surprised by its striking resemblance to early human embryogenesis.” That discovery opens new ...

A study reveals that guinea pigs can serve as a robust model for understanding human pre-implantation development. Their ...

it might require to prove to regulators and patients that CRISPR could be safely used to alter the genome of a human embryo. If, of course, society decided that was a good idea. Joung, an early ...

The results show that the preimplantation development of guinea pigs, i.e., the time before the embryo attaches to the uterine wall, is surprisingly similar to that of humans. They also identified ...

Researchers reveal that the guinea pig pre-implantation embryo is very similar to the human embryo, spurring a better understanding of infertility and early human development.
