| Abstract |
Incomplete epigenetic reprogramming is one of the major factors affecting the development of embryos cloned by somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). Histone 3 lysine 9 (H3K9) trimethylation has been identified as a key barrier to efficient reprogramming by SCNT. The aim of this study was to explore a method of downregulating H3K9me3 levels in donor cells by using histone lysine demethylase (KDM) protein. When sheep fetal fibroblast cells were treated with recombinant human KDM4D protein (rhKDM4D), the levels of H3K9 trimethylation and dimethylation were both significantly decreased. After SCNT, rhKDM4D-treated donor cells supported significantly higher percentage of cloned embryos developing into blastocysts as compared to non-treated control cells. Moreover, the blastocyst quality was also improved by rhKDM4D treatment of donor cells, as assessed by the total cell number in blastocysts and the expression of developmental genes including SOX2, NANOG and CDX2. These results indicate that treatment of donor cells with recombinant KDM4D protein can downregulate the levels of H3K9 trimethylation and dimethylation and improve the developmental competence of SCNT embryos. This strategy may be convenient to be used in KDM4-assisted SCNT procedure for improving the efficiency of cloning. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 17 May 2018.
All research outputs
#22,767,715
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Methods in Cell Science
#908
of 1,026 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#299,851
of 340,954 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in Cell Science
#7
of 9 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,026 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.7. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 340,954 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 9 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 2 of them.
