The aim of this study was to determine whether vitrification is an effective method when used for Japanese Black Cattle (Wagyu) in vivo‐derived embryos, collected following a superovulation treatment and embryo transfer (MOET) programme. In vivo‐derived morula and blastocysts collected on day 7 after artificial insemination, were vitrified using a modified droplet vitrification (MDV) procedure and subsequently warmed for transfer (ET) into synchronized recipients. Fresh embryos, and embryos cryopreserved using a standardized slow freezing procedure (direct thaw/direct transfer, DT) served as ET controls. Two different follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH) sources, Folltropin® Canada (FSH BAH, 24 donors) and a brand prepared by the Chinese Academy of Science (FSH CAS, 16 donors), were compared in a series of superovulation outcomes following well‐established FSH administration protocols. Following data analysis, the total number of ovulations recorded at the time of embryo flushing (10.5 vs 8.5; p = 0.28) and the total number of transferable embryos (6.2 vs 5.1; p = 0.52) were similar between the two FSH sources. ET for MDV (39.7%, n = 78), DT (35.2%, n = 71) and fresh controls (47.1%, n = 34) resulted in similar pregnancy rates (p > 0.05). When MDV was used, a higher pregnancy rate (42.6%) resulted from the transfer of vitrified morulae, when compared to the DT counterparts (24.3%), (p = 0.05). Transfer of vitrified morulae resulted also in higher pregnancy rate, when compared to the transfer of vitrified blastocysts (42.6% vs. 29.4%; p < 0.05). Transfer of DT blastocysts resulted in higher pregnancy rate than morulae, similarly cryopreserved (47.1% vs. 24.3%, p < 0.05). In conclusion, MDV is an effective alternative methodology for cryopreservation of in vivo‐derived embryos. This study gives also indication that, compared to vitrified blastocysts, MDV of morula stage embryos results in higher pregnancy rates following warming and transfer into synchronized recipients. 相似文献

Matching of embryo stages and grades with recipient oestrous synchrony in bovine embryo transfer 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
L E Donaldson 《The Veterinary record》1985,117(19):489-491
The efficacy of matching embryos with recipients on the basis of embryo stage and grade and donor-recipient oestrous synchrony was investigated using the records of 13,663 embryos that were collected and transferred at a commercial embryo transfer centre. The selection of early blastocysts for exact oestrous synchrony cows was effective and resulted in the highest pregnancy rates. Selection of early morulae was effective for recipients in oestrus after the donor but not when transferred into exact and negative recipients. The matching of late morulae with recipients in oestrus after the donor was not effective and had no influence on pregnancy rates. The selection of late, hatched and collapsed blastocysts for transfer into recipients in oestrus before the donor was ineffective and pregnancy rates were higher in exact and +12 hour recipients. Pregnancy rates declined 23.6 per cent in quality grades 1 to 4 whereas the range between stages was 13.3 per cent. Higher quality embryos of all stages gave the highest pregnancy rates. Examination of pregnancy rates of grades within stages suggested that the more developed the embryo the more difficult it is to grade. The difference in pregnancy rates between exact and -24 (6.9 per cent) and +24 (4.8 per cent) hour recipients was small and declined a further 4.7 per cent and 9.8 per cent in -36 and +36 hour recipients. Grade 3 and 4 embryos tolerated asynchrony better than grade 1 and 2, and early morulae tolerated asynchrony better than the other stages. It was concluded that the matching of certain embryo stages with the donor-recipient oestrous synchrony is advantageous but not always possible. 相似文献

Background Induction of multiple ovulations, or superovulation, may potentially increase the efficiency of equine embryo transfer programs. Our objective was to investigate the effects of equine follicle‐stimulating hormone (eFSH) treatment on the success rate of embryo transfer programs in mares. Methods In the research facility of the University of Saskatchewan, Canada, we studied 12 donor mares and 37 recipient mares during the physiological breeding season. Donor mares were used in two consecutive oestrous cycles: the first served as the control cycle and in the second an eFSH regimen was applied (eFSH cycle). In the control cycle, mares were administered human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) to induce ovulation when a follicle ≥35 mm in diameter was detected by transrectal ultrasonographic examination. In the second oestrous cycle, twice‐daily eFSH treatment was initiated when a follicle ≥25 mm was detected and treatment ceased when a follicle ≥35 mm was present, at which time hCG was administered. All donor mares were artificially inseminated while in oestrus using fresh semen collected from a stallion of proven fertility. At 8 days post‐ovulation, embryos were recovered transcervically and transferred individually to the uterus of a synchronised recipient mare. Results The eFSH treatment stimulated the ovary and resulted in greater numbers of ovulations and recovered embryos; however the recovered embryos tended to have a lower morphological grade than the control embryos, and the recipient pregnancy rate per transferred embryo was lower than anticipated. Conclusion The numbers of recipient pregnancies and foals born that resulted from eFSH treatment were not different from the control. 相似文献

On the Slusovice co-operative farm, embryo transfer has been practised since 1984 as a method of controlled reproduction of the heifer and cow herd. The effect of superovulation, embryo recovery and administration of 500 micrograms Oestrophan Spofa upon the donors' conception rate and upon their resuming a new reproduction cycle was studied on this farm. The effect of superovulation, induced by FSH-P (Folicotropin, Spofa), was evaluated in 162 cows, out of which 121 (74.69%) got in calf after three inseminations. Fifty-nine (48.76%) of the pregnant cows got in calf after the first insemination, 38 (31.40%) after the second insemination, and 24 (19.83%) after the third insemination. Having been subjected to embryo collection and luteolysis, the donors conceived within 67.6 days, on an average, and the animals superovulated within 60 days post partum conceived within 59.11 days. The average SP of the superovulated animals was about 148 days but in the donors from which the embryos had been recovered within 60 postpartal days the SP did not exceed 110 days. Hence the earlier postpartal superovulation of cycling cows speeds up the resumption of reproduction in the donors and increases the numbers of recovered embryos. Repeated superovulation had no influence on the fertility of the cows but adequately prolonged the service period. 相似文献

Eight cows were used to study the feasibility of transvaginal ultrasound-guided puncture of follicles as a method for the collection of immature oocytes for embryo production in vitro. In six trials at intervals of seven days, 104 oocytes were collected. After in vitro maturation and fertilisation the 104 oocytes were transferred to the oviducts of sheep. Six days later, 75 oocytes were recovered by flushing the oviducts. Twenty-four per cent of the recovered oocytes/embryos had developed into transferable and viable morulae and, or, blastocysts. The data show that this non-surgical and repeated collection of immature oocytes can be used successfully for the in vitro production of bovine embryos. The procedure may produce yields of embryos comparable to those obtainable by conventional superovulation procedures. 相似文献

Studies on factors affecting superovulation and embryo transfer in Hungarian merino ewes 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
The objectives of this study were (a) to assess the ovulatory response and embryo production of Hungarian Merino ewes after superovulation, (b) to investigate the factors influencing the efficiency of embryo transfer (ET) in Hungarian Merino ewes, (c) to compare the results of two ovarian stimulation protocols (PMSG and PMSG + FSH treatment) in Hungarian Merino ewes, and (d) to study how superovulation, laparoscopic insemination and surgical embryo retrieval (ER) affect the subsequent reproduction of Hungarian Merino donor females after an ET programme. There was no significant difference between the ovarian stimulation protocols in the ratio of donor ewes responding to superovulation nor in the average number of corpora lutea. However, the number of transferable embryos recovered per donor ewe was higher in the PMSG + FSH group. The proportion of transferable embryos, unfertilized oocytes and degenerated embryos did not differ between the treatment protocols. The total pregnancy rate was 53.4% (179/335). Neither the developmental stage of the embryo nor the number of transferred embryos affect the implantation of embryos. However, the increased number of transferred embryos positively influenced the pregnancy rate. No difference was found in the pregnancy rate between synchronised and non-synchronised groups of recipients. Thirty-six out of 45 donor ewes (80%) became pregnant within one year after the ET programme, indicating that ovarian stimulation and surgical ER did not affect adversely their reproduction. 相似文献

Synchronization of development between the embryo and uterus is required for successful pregnancy establishment.Transfer of early embryos requires synchrony with the recipient uterus of 2 days or less in sheep,because asynchrony of 3 days or more results in failure of pregnancy recognition signaling for maintenance of corpus luteum (CL) and progesterone (P4) production and/or uterine support of the embryo.The objective was to determine if P4 treatment of recipient ewes would obviate the need for pregnancy recognition signaling and maintain a uterine environment conducive to embryo survival after asynchronous transfer,thereby establishing a universal recipient.Embryos (morulae/blastocysts) were recovered on day 6 from super-ovulated donor ewes.Recipient ewes received 25 mg P4 daily from day 6 post-estrus until 60 days after embryo transfer.Embryos were transferred into recipients on day 6,9,12,18,or 30 post-estrus.The pregnancy rate on day 22 post-transfer was 60% for synchronous transfers to day 6 ewes,44% and 22% for asynchronous transfers to day 9 and 12 ewes,and 0% for asynchronous transfers to day 18 and 30 ewes.On day 39 post-transfer,pregnancy rates remained 60% for day 6 ewes,33% for day 9 ewes,and 0% for day 12,18,and 30 ewes.The P4 treatment did extend the window of uterine receptivity to early embryos in ewes by one day,but did not create a universal recipient.Available results support the idea that a window of uterine receptivity to the conceptus exists in sheep that is independent of pregnancy recognition signaling. 相似文献

Day of embryo collection, quality and pregnancy rates in cattle 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
L E Donaldson 《The Veterinary record》1986,118(24):661-663
In 1300 donor cows, total embryos increased from 8.5 to 15.3, (P less than 0.001), the mean number of transferable embryos from 3.1 to 6.5 (P = 0.067) and pregnancies increased from 1.3 to 3.3 (P = 0.584) as the day of collection increased from six to 7.5. Most of the embryos recovered on day 6, 7.5 and 8 were morulae, early blastocysts and late blastocysts respectively. Morulae formed the majority of the embryos collected on days 6 and 6.5. Pregnancy rates in early and late blastocysts were highest on days 7 (54.4 and 60.2 per cent) and 7.5 (53.6 and 53.1 per cent, P = 0.009 and 0.004). There were significant differences in pregnancy rates between embryo stages on days 7 and 7.5 (P less than 0.001), embryo grades on days 7, 7.5 and 8 (P less than 0.001), and within embryo grades 1 (P = 0.015) and 3 and 4 (pooled, P = 0.009). On all days combined there were significant differences in pregnancy rates between both embryo stages (P = 0.007) and embryo grades (P less than 0.001). It appears that the concept of embryo fitness may be applied to blastocysts but not to morulae. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To describe the gross and histologic changes that develop in the equine embryo proper (ie, the portion of the embryo that becomes the fetus) from days 17 to 40 after ovulation and to compare the external features of equine embryos with those of porcine, ovine, and human embryos. SAMPLE POPULATION: 34 embryos collected from mixed-breed pony mares. PROCEDURE: External features for each embryo proper, including length, number of branchial arches, growth of appendages, face and head features, and body features, were examined, using a dissecting microscope, for embryos collected on days 17 to 40. Internal features were histologically examined by serially sectioning embryos collected on days 20 to 35. RESULTS: Number of embryos recovered for each day ranged from 1 to 5. The initial detection of features was not related closely to age; typically, the first attainment of a given body length or characteristic varied over a 3-day period among embryos. Similarly, the period during which individual characteristics for a given Carnegie stage were attained ranged from 3 to 6 days. Age at first appearance of a characteristic was greater for equine embryos than ages reported for ovine and porcine embryos but less than for human embryos. Indicators of age included number of pairs of branchial arches, all limb buds present, retinal pigmentation, and prominence of the pontine flexure. CONCLUSIONS: No embryologic structures or changes were found that could be considered unique to equine embryos on days 17 to 40 after ovulation. 相似文献

Multiple ovulation and embryo transfer (MOET) is an important tool in the sheep industry for increasing numbers of genetically superior individuals. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of semen source (frozen or fresh), the number of embryo collection procedures for each donor (NECP), the season in which embryo transfer and collection was performed, and the age and breed of the donor, on the number of recovered embryos and pregnancy rates after embryo transfer. The Alamos Genetics’ flushing station database was used. This consisted of 140 embryo collection procedures, from 53 Dorper and White Dorper sheep donors, aged between one and eight years, totalling 1,200 collected embryos. Neither the number of retrieved embryos nor the pregnancy rate was affected by the semen preservation method (fresh or frozen), NECP or the age and breed of donor. The season did not affect the number of collected embryos but had a significant effect (p < 0.05) on the recipient pregnancy rate, with higher pregnancy rates reported in the winter (65.57% ± 25.33%) compared with spring (37.11% ± 33.27%), summer (29.95% ± 28.33%) or autumn (35.03% ± 31.66%). There is an estimated increase of 98.4% and 71.5% of embryos recovered in the spring and summer seasons, respectively, when winter is used as reference. The survival of embryos is significantly higher when implanted during the breeding season, more specifically in winter. Embryo collection can be carried out throughout the year in sheep, but there may be a marginal advantage in the use of superovulation and fresh embryo transfer programmes in the autumn and winter. 相似文献

Utilization of porcine in vitro‐produced parthenogenetic embryos for co‐transfer with vitrified and warmed embryos 下载免费PDF全文
下载免费PDF全文 The present study was conducted to evaluate the possibility of using in vitro‐produced parthenogenetic (PA) embryos for co‐transfer with morulae that had been collected in vivo and cryopreserved. The proportion of PA blastocysts (20.5%) was higher than that of their in vitro fertilization (IVF) counterparts (16.6%). Although there were no differences in morphology or diameter between the two groups, the number of cells in early PA blastocysts after in vitro culture for 6 days was lower than for IVF blastocysts (25.7 and 30.4 cells, respectively), and the number in recovered PA blastocysts was also smaller than that in recovered IVF blastocysts (37.4 and 50.2 cells, respectively). When 10 morulae warmed after vitrification were co‐transferred with 10 PA blastocysts (total 20 embryos) to the uterus of five recipients, the rates of pregnancy and farrowing did not differ, but the average period until spontaneous abortion tended to be longer relative to the control (when 20 morulae were transferred). These data suggest that in vitro‐produced PA embryos offer the possibility of assisted pregnancy for cryopreserved embryos; further experiments will be needed to confirm the beneficial effect of this approach on piglet production. 相似文献

To obtain normal kits by embryo treansfer (ET) during the non-breeding season, maintenance of pregnancy was carried out by administration of sustained action progesterone (P4) in queens. Embryos were recovered six days after mating from five donor queens in which ovulation was induced by administration of eCG and hCG. The number of embryos recovered ranged from 24 to 53 (mean: 37.2 +/- 6.4) per animal and most embryos were compacted morulae. The yield of embryos was 49.0-93.3% (mean: 73.8 +/- 9.6%). As for recipients, porcine pituitary gland preparation and hCG were administered to 19 queens and estrus and ovulation were induced in 18 queens (94.7%). These queens underwent intrauterine ET of five compacted morulae and 17 cats (94.4%) were impregnated. The number of implantations was 2-5 (mean: 3.7 +/- 0.3). Among these impregnated queens, 15 cats received P4 adminstration starting on day 24 of gestation and 1-5 newborns (mean: 3.4 +/- 0.3) were obtained by normal delivery or caesarean section on day 64-69 of gestation. However, two animals that were not treated with P4 underwent spontaneous abortion about the mid gestational period. Therefore, it is possible to obtain normal kits from queens in the non-breeding season by ET with maintenance of pregnancy by P4 administration. 相似文献
