Project name: Oryctolagus cuniculus

Description: Parthenogenetic embryos are one attractive alternative as a source of embryonic stem cells, although many aspects related to the biology of parthenogenetic embryos and parthenogenetically derived cell lines still need to be elucidated. The present work was conducted to investigate the gene expression profile of rabbit parthenote embryos cultured under in vivo conditions using microarray analysis.Overall design: Transcriptional microarray study that compares gene expression of 6 day parthenote rabbit embryos to their in vivo counterparts. Biological replicates used: 4 replicates for control embryos, 4 replicates for parthenote embryos

Data type: Transcriptome or Gene expression

Sample scope: Multiisolate

Relevance: ModelOrganism
