After fertilization and during the early phases of embryogeneisis, germ cells have the essential function of achieving totipotency so that genetic information is correctly passed on to the next generation, thereby ensuring genetic diversity. In this period, totipotent are subjected to epigenetic reprogramming and converted towards the germinal lineage. Much has been investigated about the…
The epigenetic mechanisms governing the ability of the female gamete, i.e. the oocyte, to become totipotent are at the center of many unanswered questions in biology and a better understanding of such a basic phenomenon offers a unique opportunity to develop novel biotechnologies with wide-reaching benefits for humans and animals. This thematic project brings together renowned Canadian an…

The in vitro production of bovine embryos using oocytes obtained through the aspiration of antral follicles plays a prominent role in the national livestock and agricultural industries. This technology provides partially viable oocytes that, after in vitro culture to complete their nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation, can be used to derive embryos and viable progeny. Additionally, the abil…
