Effects of thioredoxin on the preimplantation development of bovine embryos

Thioredoxin (TRX) is an ubiquitous protein disulfide reductase, which is known to be involved in the implantation development of mouse embryos. In the present study, recombinant human TRX was used to evaluate its effect on the promotion of preimplantation development of bovine embryos derived from i...

Zusammenfassung:Thioredoxin (TRX) is an ubiquitous protein disulfide reductase, which is known to be involved in the implantation development of mouse embryos. In the present study, recombinant human TRX was used to evaluate its effect on the promotion of preimplantation development of bovine embryos derived from in vitro maturation and fertilization. Supplementation of the medium 24 h post insemination with TRX significantly ( P
