    Abstract Many genetically engineered rat strains have been produced by the development of genome editing technology, although it used to be technical difficulty and low production efficiency. Knockout and knock-in strains can be simple and quick produced using zinc finger nuclease (ZFN), transcription activator-like effector nuclease (TALEN), or clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas9. Presently, genome edited strains have been produced by microinjection and a new electroporation method named technique for animal knockout system by electroporation (TAKE). This chapter presents the latest protocols for producing genome edited rats.

    Abstract Many genome-edited mouse and rat strains have been produced using engineered endonucleases, including zinc finger nuclease (ZFN), transcription activator-like effector nuclease (TALEN), or clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas9. Especially, CRISPR-Cas9 is powerful tool that can be easy, rapid, and high-efficiency-produced new genome-edited strains. Furthermore, new technique, Technique for Animal Knockout system by Electroporation (TAKE), efficiently accelerate production of new strains by direct nuclease introduction into intact embryos using electroporation. This chapter presents a latest technical information in the production of genome-edited mouse and rat by TAKE method.

    Abstract Neural radiance fields (NeRFs) have shown impressive results for novel view synthesis. However, they depend on the repetitive use of a single-input single-output multilayer perceptron (SISO MLP) that maps 3D coordinates and view direction to the color and volume density in a sample-wise manner, which slows the rendering. We propose a multi-input multi-output NeRF (MIMO-NeRF) that reduces the number of MLPs running by replacing the SISO MLP with a MIMO MLP and conducting mappings in a group-wise manner. One notable challenge with this approach is that the color and volume density of each point can differ according to a choice of input coordinates in a group, which can lead to some notable ambiguity. We also propose a self-supervised learning method that regularizes the MIMO MLP with multiple fast reformulated MLPs to alleviate this ambiguity without using pretrained models. The results of a comprehensive experimental evaluation including comparative and ablation studies are presented to show that MIMO-NeRF obtains a good trade-off between speed and quality with a reasonable training time. We then demonstrate that MIMO-NeRF is compatible with and complementary to previous advancements in NeRFs by applying it to two representative fast NeRFs, i.e., a NeRF with sample reduction (DONeRF) and a NeRF with alternative representations (TensoRF).

    Abstract Oocyte cryopreservation is useful for human fertility treatment and strain preservation in both experimental and domestic animals. However, the embryonic development of vitrified rat oocytes was lower than that of vitrified embryos. To increase the viability of vitrified oocytes, intracellular ice formation during cooling and warming must be prevented. Rapid warming is important to prevent ice formation. Furthermore, suppressing the spontaneous activation of oocytes is also important because vitrification promotes the spontaneous activation of rat oocytes, and thus compromise developmental competence of the gametes. MG132, a proteasome inhibitor, suppresses the spontaneous activation of rat oocytes. Here, we examined the effects of rapid warming and MG132 treatment on the survival and embryonic development of vitrified rat oocytes. The warming rate was adjusted by changing the vitrification solution volume and warming solution temperature. The survival rate of oocytes vitrified in 10 μL solution and warmed at 50 °C (94%) was significantly higher than that of oocytes vitrified in 100 μL and 10 μL solution and warmed at 37 °C (49% and 81%, respectively). Furthermore, the rate of embryonic development of vitrified oocytes treated with MG132 during vitrification, warming, and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) (44%) was significantly higher than that of untreated gametes (10%). Offspring were obtained after transferring embryos derived from MG132-treated vitrified oocytes (14%). Altogether, the survivability of vitrified rat oocytes increased by rapid warming, and MG132 improved embryonic development after ICSI.

    Abstract Fully unsupervised 3D representation learning has gained attention owing to its advantages in data collection. A successful approach involves a viewpoint-aware approach that learns an image distribution based on generative models (e.g., generative adversarial networks (GANs)) while generating various view images based on 3D-aware models (e.g., neural radiance fields (NeRFs)). However, they require images with various views for training, and consequently, their application to datasets with few or limited viewpoints remains a challenge. As a complementary approach, an aperture rendering GAN (AR-GAN) that employs a defocus cue was proposed. However, an AR-GAN is a CNN-based model and represents a defocus independently from a viewpoint change despite its high correlation, which is one of the reasons for its performance. As an alternative to an AR-GAN, we propose an aperture rendering NeRF (AR-NeRF), which can utilize viewpoint and defocus cues in a unified manner by representing both factors in a common ray-tracing framework. Moreover, to learn defocus-aware and defocus-independent representations in a disentangled manner, we propose aperture randomized training, for which we learn to generate images while randomizing the aperture size and latent codes independently. During our experiments, we applied AR-NeRF to various natural image datasets, including flower, bird, and face images, the results of which demonstrate the utility of AR-NeRF for unsupervised learning of the depth and defocus effects.

    Abstract Large productions of plastics worldwide are greater concern to the environment because of their non degradability and thus, damaging the ecosystem. Recent advancements in biobased plastics are growing exponentially because of their promise of a sustainable environment. Biobased polycoumarates plastics have a wood-like appearance with liquid crystalline grains, light brown color, and cinnamon-like aroma, but have very low toughness. The polycoumarates were hybridized via main-chain transesterification with poly (butylene succinate) (PBS). PBS itself being a biobased material has added more value to the final product due to biodegradability. The mechanical flexibility and toughness of the bio-based copolymers were controlled by varying the PBS content. As a result, well-processable and in-soil degradable artificial woods with a high strain energy density of approximately 76 MJ/m
