Description
Understanding the molecular mechanisms behind blastocyst formation and implantation is critical for improving the efficiency of assisted reproductive technologies. This webinar will discuss the development of strategies for the generation of blastocyst-like structures (blastoids) from embryonic stem cells via three-dimensional differentiation and self-organization directly from naïve-like bovine embryonic stem cells (bESCs) and assembly through the combination of bovine trophectoderm stem cells (TSCs) and bovine expanded potential stem cells (EPSCs). With further optimization, bovine blastoid technology could lead to the development of new artificial reproductive technologies for cattle breeding, which may enable a paradigm shift in livestock reproduction.
