Expression pattern of REST in porcine oocytes and embryos.
A, mRNA expressions of REST in porcine embryos detected by Q-PCR. Asterisk (*) indicates p < 0.001; B, protein expressions of REST in porcine oocytes, fibroblasts, and embryos checked by Western blotting. MII, MII oocytes; DC, donor cells; 1C, one-cell embryos; 2C, two-cell embryos; 4C, four-cell embryos; M, morula; B, blastocyst.
