Fig 1. Oct4 methylation statuses in early embryos.

Fig 1

A, the methylation statuses of Oct4 at 1-cell, 2-cell, 4-cell, 8-cell and blastocyst stages of IVF, NT-CON, NT-AZA and NT-TSA embryos, B, the methylation levels of Oct4 in the IVF, NT-CON, NT-AZA and NT-TSA groups, and C, the methylation levels of Oct4 at different stages of IVF, NT-CON, NT-AZA and NT-TSA embryos. Cloned embryos displayed incomplete methylation reprogramming of Oct4, while 5-aza-dC or TSA rescued the disrupted methylation pattern of Oct4 in cloned embryos. Black or white circles indicate methylated or unmethylated CpG sites, respectively, and gray circles represent mutated and/or single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variation at certain CpG sites. a-dValues in the same group or at a given stage with different superscripts differ significantly (P<0.05).
