Results of PNT in mice.

Ref. Transfer Method Blastocyst Development Births Rate Carry-Over Notes
McGrath et al., 1983 [42] EF 96% (64/67)
Similar to controls
15% (10/64)
Similar to controls
Not tested First publication about PNT
Sato et al., 2005 [43] EF Not indicated 28% (11/39)
Similar to controls
F1 tail: 11% (6–21%)
After 300 days: 23% (5–44%)
Murine model with mitochondrial pathology. Offspring free of disease
Cheng et al., 2009 [27] EF Not indicated 31–62% Not tested Animals born were healthy and comparable to controls
Neupane et al., 2014 [28] HVJ-E 87.5% (14/16)
Similar to non-manipulated controls
Not tested Embryos: 0.29% ± 0.75%
Undetectable in 21/25
Minimum levels of carry-over. Equivalent to those of GVT and MST
Wang et al., 2014 [31] HVJ-E 81.3% (13/16)
Similar to controls
53% (7/13)
Similar to controls
F1 tail: 23.7% ± 11.1%
F2 fingers: 22.1% ± 18.7%
High rates of carry-over, probably due to manipulation problems

ESCs: embryonic stem cells. EF: electrofusion. F1/F2: mice of first and second generation. HVJ-E: extract of de Sendai virus. ICSI: intracytoplasmatic spermatozoid injection.
