The precise role of Dickkopf-1 (Dkk-1) during early bovine trophoblast development and subsequent placentation is not fully understood. Using somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) generated pregnancies as a model of poor placentation we have found that mean levels of Dkk-1 mRNA were 1.5 fold lower in SCNT fetal cotyledon tissue at Day 50 of gestation than those resulting from artificial insemination (AI.) and 2 fold lower at Days 100 and 150 (P
