The objective of this study was to establish ES cell lines from the cat for regenerative veterinary medicine. I examined feline IVM/IVF/IVC and establishment of feline embryonic stem cells, and the following results were obtained.(1)The BCB(+) oocytes reached more MII and morula/blastocysts than BCB (-) oocytes.(2)The isolation of feline sperm by percoll density gradient is effective in selecting the useful sperm.(3)Sequence alignment and comparison of feline LIF cDNA with human and mouse LIF cDNA revealed a high degree of nucleotide similarity.(4)The IVC of Only-one medium+FBS developed the feline embryo up to blastocyst stage.(5)Primary feline ES-like cell colonies were formed from IVF derived blastocysts.
