Sex-related transcriptional differences in Day 7 bovine in vitro produced blastocysts

ABSTRACT: Sexual dimorphism in mammals is mostly attributable to sex-related hormonal differences in fetal and adult tissues; however, this may not be the sole determinant. Though genetically-identical for autosomal chromosomes, male and female preimplantation embryos could display sex-specific transcriptional regulation which can only be attributted to the differences in sexual chromosome dosage. We used microarrays to analyze sex-related transcriptional differences at the blastocyst stage.
