Modulation of bovine preimplantation embryonic development and pregnancy by FGF2, LIF, and IGF1
… understanding of embryo development in vitro. Embryokine supplementation has been widely explored to improve the in vitro system. Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2), leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) as a cytokine cocktail named FLI, was first recognized …

Interleukin-6 Supplementation Improves Post-Transfer Embryonic and Early Fetal Development of in vitro Produced Bovine Embryos
… this thesis explored how interleukin-6 (IL6), an embryokine that increases inner cell mass (ICM) influences post-transfer embryonic survival and development of the embryo-proper and fetus. Four replicates of slaughterhouse-derived cumulus oocyte complexes underwent in vitro maturation and …

Supplementing IL6, IL11, and LIF to Improve Cultured Bovine Oocyte Competency
… our lab has confirmed interleukin-6 as an embryokine whose capabilities include increasing inner cell mass (ICM) numbers and promoting bovine blastocyst development. LIF is another family member of the IL6 cytokine family and has been shown to produce several positive effects when …

Interleukin-6 and its Contribution to Embryogenesis in Cattle
In vitro systems like those used for in vitro embryo production are invaluable for our understanding of embryogenesis and the processes that regulate it. However, extensive research has also highlighted that in vitro produced embryos negatively differ from their in vivo counterparts in various …
