Gardner DK, Lane MW, Lane M. Development of the inner cell mass in
mouse blastocysts is stimulated by reducing the embryo: incubation volume ratio.
Now you know that if you take a mouse embryonic stem cell that is, say, labeled so all of the developed cells will be blue, and you inject it into
a mouse blastocyst, you'll get a chimera.
By manipulating a specific gene in
a mouse blastocyst — the structure that develops from a fertilized egg but is not yet an actual embryo — scientists with the University of Florida's McKnight Brain Institute and the Harvard Stem Cell Institute caused cells destined to build an embryo to instead change direction and build the cell mass that leads to the placenta.

mice
Interestingly, it has been reported that
mice with a mutation in Kap1 were obese and had behavioral problems, and the lower expression of Kap1 that we have found in the
blastocysts produced by IVC could also be related to the behavior problem reported in
mice generated by IVC [43].
The GEM Facility will thaw one straw of frozen embryos and culture overnight to the
