As mentioned in the Preface to this book, most of what we presently know about the regulation of preimplantation embryo development is derived from studies with mouse embryos under in vitro culture conditions. This information is of enormous value, yet we should be concerned about the relative lack of critical data available for other species (with the notable exception of the rabbit: see Chapters 1 and 10). Accepting that embryos of other species need to be intensively investigated, using experimental approaches similar to those applied to mouse embryos over the past 20 years or so, why choose the golden hamster as a model species? The scarcity of published reports on the culture of hamster embryos underscores the difficulty of growing these embryos in vitro; in fact, there has never been a report of successful culture of hamster 2-cell embryos. For some unknown reason, early cleavage stage embryos of the golden hamster are extraordinarily sensitive (compared to mouse embryos) to conventional culture conditions, and the “2-cell block” appears to be absolute (Yanagimachi and Chang, 1964; Whittingham and Bavister, 1974).
