This dynamic period of early development sees embryonic cells displaying remarkable ... including mouse, cow, pig, rabbit, and the non-human primate, rhesus macaque. Their findings were surprising ...

The Campaign Against Human Genetic Engineering (CAHGE; 1) has today condemned a patent application on hybrid pig-human embryos as obscene. The patent, discovered by Greenpeace Germany, belongs to the ...

Over half of our genomes consist of thousands of remnants of ancient viral DNA, known as transposable elements, which are widespread across the tree of life. Once dismissed as the "dark side" of the ...

They observed a clear correlation between less OGT activity and more severe effects on embryonic development. Their results showed that OGT played an important catalytic role, and it wasn't just ...

Scientists exploring these early stages of embryonic development have discovered that certain genes might be arranged to get the best possible developmental outcome. Research on fruit flies suggests ...

You will be redirected to our submission process. The formation of a complex organism from a single cell is one of the most amazing wonders of biology. Embryonic development is characterized by a ...

Spheres represent cells swimming down an electric sea. Credit: Julien Marcetteau for the Barriga Lab/PoL How cells utilize electric fields to guide their migration during embryonic development. As an ...

More than half of the mammalian genome consists of remnants of ancient viral DNA known as ‘transposable elements’ ─ sequences ...

One of the most significant events during early embryonic development is the establishment of a basic embryonic body plan, which is defined by anteroposterior, dorsoventral (DV), and left-right axes.

For the first time, scientists have been able to produce kangaroo embryos through in-vitro fertilization ... and due to habitat loss, the development of roads, heat stress and invasive species ...
