Introduction
Domestic sheep (Ovis aries)
- term gestational days = 145 days
Some Recent Findings
|
Development Overview
- day 4 - embryo enters the uterus at the morula stage of development
- day 6 - develops into a blastocyst
- day 8 - blastocyst hatches from zona pellucida
- day 11-16 - elongates to a filamentous form
- day 14 - 16 - binucleate cells begin to differentiate in the trophoblast
- day 16 - adplantation

Dolly
A female domestic sheep remarkable in being the first mammal to be cloned from an adult somatic cell, using the process of nuclear transfer.[5]
Cloned by Ian Wilmut, Keith Campbell and colleagues at the Roslin Institute near Edinburgh in Scotland, born on 5 July 1996 and she lived until the age of six (5 July 1996 – 14 February 2003). The cell used as the donor for the cloning of Dolly was taken from a mammary gland, and the production of a healthy clone therefore proved that a cell taken from a specific part of the body could recreate a whole individual. As Dolly was cloned from part of a mammary gland, she was named after the famously curvaceous country western singer Dolly Parton.

Immune
Lymphocytes development has been characterised by an immunohistology study of T lymphocytes in the sheep fetal spleen.[6]
- 43-44 days of gestation, SBU-T1- and SBU-T8-positive lymphocytes were present in low numbers.
- 45-50 days of gestation Surface immunoglobulin (sIg) was first detected on fetal spleen cells
- 50-55 days of gestation SBU-T4, 20.96-, 25.69-, 38.38-, or 46.66-positive lymphocytes present.
- 57 days of gestation SBU-T19 lymphocytes appeared.
