Reproductive Cloning

Reproductive Cloning

Reproductive cloning is the process of producing a genetically identical copy—a clone—of an entire organism. While clones can be produced by splitting an early embryo—similar to what happens naturally with identical twins—cloning of adult animals is usually done by a process called somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT).
Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer
In SCNT, an egg cell is taken from an animal and its nucleus is removed, creating an enucleated egg. Then a somatic cell—any cell that is not a sex...

In Vitro Fertilization

In Vitro Fertilization

In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a form of assisted reproductive technology where an egg is fertilized with sperm in a controlled laboratory environment before transferring the resulting embryo into the uterus. This process is designed to help individuals and couples experiencing difficulties conceiving.
The IVF process begins with ovarian stimulation, during which reproductive endocrinologists prescribe hormonal medications to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs instead of the single...

Area of Science:

Reproductive biology and primatology.

Background:

Nonhuman primates (NHP) are crucial models for human reproductive physiology research due to their close genetic relationship to humans.
Assisted reproductive technologies (ART) in NHPs enable critical studies in fertilization, embryo development, and stem cell derivation.
ART applications include regenerative medicine, somatic cell nuclear transfer (cloning), and creating transgenic models for genetic disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

To present two novel ART protocols specifically developed for Old World nonhuman primates.
To facilitate advanced research in primate reproductive science and developmental biology.

Main Methods:

Development and optimization of ART protocols tailored for rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta).
Development and optimization of ART protocols tailored for baboons (Papio cynocephalus).

Main Results:

Successful establishment of two distinct ART protocols for rhesus monkeys and baboons.
These protocols provide a foundation for further research using these NHP models.

Conclusions:

The developed ART protocols enhance the utility of rhesus monkeys and baboons as models for human reproductive studies.
These advancements support the creation of NHP models for genetic diseases and applications in regenerative medicine.
