Abstract: |
To explore the effects of overexpression of histone H3K9me3 demethylases KDM4B/KDM4D on the
in vitro developmental efficiency of porcine cloned embryos,KDM4B/KDM4D expression vectors were constructed,
and KDM4B/KDM4D mRNA were obtained by in vitro transcription and were microinjected into cloned pig embryos,
respectively. The results show that injected cloned embryos have a similar H3K9me3 level,cleavage rate and
blastocyst rate with non-injected cloned embryos,but have a significantly higher KDM4B/KDM4D expression level
than non-injected control cloned embryo( P<0.05),and cloned embryos injected with KDM4B mRNA have a
significantly higher total number of cells per blastocyst than non-injected control cloned embryos( P<0.05). These
results suggest that overexpression of histone H3K9me3 demethylases KDM4B can significantly improve the in vitro
developmentral rate of cloned porcine embryos. |
