In vitro versus In vivo: Development- Apoptosis- and Implantation- Related Gene Expression in Mouse Blastocyst

摘要

BackgroundWhile mammalian embryos can adapt to their environments, their sensitivity overshadows their adaptability in suboptimal in vitro conditions. Therefore, the environment in which the gametes are fertilized or to which the embryo is exposed can greatly affect the quality of the embryo and consequently its implantation potential.
