The effects of delipidation and the oxygen (O(2)) concentration in the atmosphere during culture on in vitro development and H(2)O(2) content were investigated in porcine in vivo fertilized embryos and embryos after in vitro maturation and in vitro fertilization (IVM/IVF embryos). There was no significant difference in the developmental rates to the blastocyst stage between the intact and delipidated IVM/IVF embryos. However, the mean number of cells in blastocysts derived from delipidated IVM/IVF embryos (19.8 +/- 0.8 cells) was significantly smaller than that from intact embryos (24.2 +/- 1.2 cells). Although there were no significant differences in the developmental rates to the blastocyst stage of intact and delipidated IVM/IVF embryos between the cultures under 5% O(2) and 20% O(2), the developmental rate of intact IVM/IVF embryos cultured under 5% O(2) (27.1%) was significantly higher than that of the delipidated embryos cultured under 20% O(2) (19.3%). On the other hand, there was no difference in the developmental rate to the blastocyst stage between in vivo fertilized embryos cultured under 5% O(2) and 20% O(2). Hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), one of the reactive oxygen species (ROS), is thought to cause damage to embryos. The H(2)O(2) content per embryo derived from oocytes cultured under 5% O(2) (in vivo fertilized, 58.0 +/- 2.5 pixels; IVM/IVF, 79.6 +/- 3.2 pixels) was significantly lower than that (in vivo fertilized, 100.2 +/- 3.8 pixels; IVM/IVF, 103.9 +/- 3.2 pixels) under 20% O(2). Furthermore, the level of H(2)O(2) in delipidated IVM/IVF embryos (94.7 +/- 3.9 pixels) was significantly lower than that in intact embryos (103.9 +/- 3.2 pixels) cultured under 20% O(2). The present results indicate that the delipidation of porcine IVM/IVF embryos and reduction of the O(2) concentration decreased the H(2)O(2) level rather than the in vitro developmental rate to the blastocyst stage.  相似文献

We have previously indicated that porcine blastocysts can be produced by in vitro fertilization (IVF) and culture (IVC) in chemically defined porcine gamete medium (PGM) and porcine zygote medium (PZM)-5, respectively, In the present study, the effects of basic media and macromolecular components on in vitro maturation (IVM) were investigated to develop a defined system for in vitro embryo production using a single basic medium through IVM, IVF and IVC. Porcine immature oocytes were matured in porcine oocyte medium (POM) or modified North Carolina State University (mNCSU) 37, which were supplemented with either 10% (v/v) porcine follicular fluid (pFF) or 3 mg/ml polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a macromolecular component (designated POM+pFF, POM+PVA, mNCSU37+pFF and mNCSU37+PVA). In the maturation with mNCSU37+PVA, the percentages of oocytes that reached the metaphase II stages were significantly lower than those in the other treatments. Following IVM with the above media, oocytes were treated with an electrical stimulus and cycloheximide for parthenogenetic activation and were cultured in PZM-5 for 5 days. The rates of cleavage and blastocyst formation of parthenogenetic oocytes were significantly lowered for maturation with mNCSU37+PVA compared with the other treatments, while there were no significant differences in the total numbers of cells in blastocysts among the treatments. Following IVF and IVC, the rates of penetration, male pronucleus formation, cleavage and blastocyst formation were significantly lower when oocytes were matured in mNCSU37+PVA than in other maturation media. The normal fertilization rate was significantly higher in POM+PVA compared with the other treatments, although the total number of cells in blastocysts was reduced with the addition of PVA to both POM and mNCSU37 compared with pFF supplementation. These results demonstrate that porcine blastocysts can be produced by the defined system using a single basic medium.  相似文献

The effects of adding cysteamine, EGF, and glucose as an energy substrate under low oxygen tension during in vitro maturation (IVM) were examined to find ways of improving the individual in vitro production (IVP) system in individually cultured bovine oocytes. The basic medium was mSOFaa containing 1 mg/ml polyvinyl alcohol. Immature oocytes were individually cultured in an IVM medium with 10 ng/ml EGF, 100 microM cysteamine, or EGF plus cysteamine under 20% or 5% O(2). Cleavage and blastocyst rates were significantly higher (P<0.05) in IVM culture was under 20% O(2) than in culture under 5% O(2). Under 5% O(2), neither EGF nor cysteamine improved embryonic development. The proportion of matured oocytes was significantly higher (P<0.05) in the presence of 1.5 mM glucose under 20% O(2) (68.6%), and 5.5 mM (66.7%) and 10 mM (65.5%) glucose under 5% O(2). The presence of 5.5 mM glucose significantly (P<0.05) increased the maturation rate compared with the absence of glucose, irrespective of addition of EGF and cysteamine. The addition of cysteamine alone in the maturation medium significantly (P<0.05) increased the intracellular GSH concentration in the oocytes. Also, under 5% O(2) cysteamine and/or EGF significantly (P<0.05) improved the proportions of penetrated oocytes, cleavage and blastocyst formation, which were similar levels to those of oocytes matured under 20% O(2). After vitrification, the re-expanding and hatching rates of blastocysts derived from the individual IVP system containing cysteamine under 5% O(2) were significantly (P<0.05) higher than those of blastocysts derived from the individual IVP system without cysteamine under 5% O(2) and the group IVP system under 20% O(2). The present study showed that a high glucose level (5.5 or 10 mM) was optimal in IVM culture under low (5%) oxygen tension. The addition of EGF and/or cysteamine to the maturation medium had no positive effect on nuclear maturation, but improved fertilizability, developmental competence and cryoresistance following vitrification, probably due to increased GSH synthesis during the IVM process.  相似文献

Three experiments were conducted to determine the effect of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) on bovine embryonic development in vitro. Human recombinant VEGF(165) was employed at 5 ng/ml in modified synthetic oviduct fluid. In Exp. 1, bovine cumulus oocyte complexes were matured with or without VEGF for 22 hr, inseminated without VEGF for 6 hr, then cultured with or without VEGF for 42 hr. The cleavage rate and the development rate to 4- to 8-cell were higher (P<0.05) in groups with VEGF during in vitro maturation (IVM, 71.4% and 59.6%), in vitro culture (IVC, 70.3% and 62.3%), and both IVM and IVC (75.9% and 67.8%) than in the group cultured thoroughly without VEGF (49.9% and 38.4%, respectively). In Exp. 2, 4- to 8-cell embryos produced in vitro without VEGF were removed from cumulus cells at 48 hr post-insemination (Pi) and cultured with or without VEGF for 144 hr. The development rates to blastocyst at 96 hr (D6), 120 hr (D7) and 144 hr (D8) were similar (P>0.05) in both groups. In Exp. 3, cumulus cells were removed from presumptive embryos produced by IVM and IVF without VEGF at 10 hr Pi. Denuded embryos were cultured with or without VEGF for 38 hr or 182 hr. The cleavage rate and the development rates to 4- to 8-cell at 48 hr Pi and to blastocyst on D6, D7 and D8 were similar (P>0.05) in all groups. These results suggest that VEGF has a beneficial effect on the initial development of bovine embryo through surrounding cumulus cells.  相似文献

Co‐culture of cumulus‐oocyte complexes (COCs) with denuded oocytes (DOs) during in vitro maturation (IVM) was reported to improve the developmental competence of oocytes via oocyte‐secreted factors in cattle. The aim of the present study was to investigate if addition of DOs during IVM can improve in vitro fertilization (IVF) and in vitro culture (IVC) results for oocytes in a defined in vitro production system in pigs. The maturation medium was porcine oocyte medium supplemented with gonadotropins, dbcAMP and β‐mercaptoethanol. Cumulus‐oocyte complexes were matured without DOs or with DOs in different ratios (9 COC, 9 COC+16 DO and 9 COC+36 DO). Consequently; oocytes were subjected to IVF as intact COCs or after denudation to examine if DO addition during IVM would affect cumulus or oocyte properties. After fertilization, penetration and normal fertilization rates of zygotes were not different between all tested groups irrespective of denudation before IVF. When zygotes were cultured for 6 days, no difference could be observed between all treatment groups in cleavage rate, blastocyst rate and cell number per blastocyst. In conclusion, irrespective of the ratio, co‐culture with DOs during IVM did not improve fertilization parameters and embryo development of cumulus‐enclosed porcine oocytes in a defined system.  相似文献

This study was designed to investigate the effect of different types and different concentrations of sugar on in vitro maturation(IVM) and developmental competence of yak oocytes, for being further research and optimization culture system of yak oocytes for efficient maturity yak oocytes and productivity of embryos. Immature yak oocytes were matured in vitro on culture medium with different concentrations (0,5 and 10 mmol/L) of glucose and sucrose in incubator for 24 h or 2 h pretreament with sugar and 22 h without sugar. Subsequently, then the maturation of oocytes,the cleavage rates and blastocyst formation rates after in vitro fertilization(IVF) were evaluated. The results showed that a medium with 5 and 10 mmol/L glucose IVM could significantly increase the yak oocytes maturation and cleavage (P<0.05), and the highest blastocyst formation rates in 10 mmol/L glucose group was significantly higher than 0 mmol/L glucose (P<0.05).10 mmol/L sucrose could increase significantly the nucleus maturation rates (P<0.05),and there was no significant difference of the blastocyst formation rates after IVF between 0 and 10 mmol/L sucrose (P>0.05). Furthermore, the nucleus maturation rates,IVF cleavage rates and blastocyst formation rates of yak oocytes which pretreated with 10 mmol/L glucose were the highest in these groups, and were higher than 0 mmol/L glucose (P<0.05). It manifested that the appropriate concentration of sugar could improve the quality of yak oocytes and embryos in vitro developmental competence, so it influenced in vitro development of yak oocytes indirectly.  相似文献

试验旨在研究不同种类、不同浓度的糖对牦牛卵母细胞体外成熟和发育能力的影响,进一步探索和优化牦牛卵母细胞培养体系,提高卵母细胞体外成熟和胚胎生产效率。在牦牛卵母细胞成熟液中添加不同浓度（0、5和10 mmol/L）的葡萄糖或蔗糖,培养24 h或预培养2 h后移入无糖培养基中继续培养22 h,统计卵母细胞体外成熟率及体外受精（IVF）后的胚胎卵裂率和囊胚率。结果显示,与对照组（0 mmol/L）相比,5和10 mmol/L葡萄糖组牦牛卵母细胞核成熟率和体外受精胚胎卵裂率均显著提高（P<0.05）,10 mmol/L葡萄糖组的囊胚率最高,且与对照组相比差异显著（P<0.05）。添加10 mmol/L蔗糖可以显著提高牦牛卵母细胞核成熟率（P<0.05）,但胚胎囊胚率与对照组相比差异不显著（P>0.05）。此外,用10 mmol/L葡萄糖预处理牦牛卵母细胞后其核成熟率、胚胎卵裂率和囊胚率最高,且均显著高于对照组（P<0.05）。由此可见,糖对牦牛卵母细胞体外成熟和发育有一定的影响,在成熟过程中添加适当浓度的糖能提高卵母细胞成熟率及体外受精胚胎发育能力。  相似文献

The quality of porcine blastocysts produced in vitro is poor in comparison with those that develop in vivo. We examined the quality of in vitro‐matured and fertilized (IVM/IVF) oocytes, their abilities to develop to blastocysts under in vivo and in vitro conditions, and the potential of the embryos to develop to term after transfer. IVM/IVF oocytes were either transferred and the embryos recovered on Days 5 and 6 (100% and 87.5%, respectively) (‘ET‐vivo’ embryos), or cultured in vitro for 5 or 6 days (‘IVC’ embryos). The proportion of blastocysts differed significantly between the two groups on Day 5 (20.6% and 8.0%, respectively), but not on Day 6 (23.8% and 21.2%, respectively). The mean number of cells in ET‐vivo blastocysts on Days 5 or 6 was significantly higher (72.8 and 78.7, respectively) than that in IVC blastocysts (22.1 and 39.7, respectively). When IVM/IVF oocytes and IVC blastocysts on Day 6 were transferred, all (three and three, respectively) developed to piglets (16 and 16, respectively), without any difference in the rates of development to term (2.1% and 2.6%, respectively). These data suggest that, although blastocyst production differs between the two culture conditions, IVM/IVF oocytes possess the same ability to develop to term.  相似文献

The Vietnamese Ban pig is a precious genetic resource that needs to be preserved. In vitro embryo production from in vitro matured (IVM) oocytes is an important tool for the utilization of cryopreserved porcine sperm. The aim of this study was to compare two media for the IVM of Ban pig oocytes. Immature oocytes were subjected to IVM either in a non‐defined (TCM‐199 + pig follicular fluid) or in a defined base medium (POM + epidermal growth factor). At the end of IVM, the oocytes were in vitro fertilized (IVF) with frozen Ban sperm. Ten hours after IVF, the oocytes were either subjected to orcein staining to check fertilization and maturation status or cultured in vitro for 7 days. There was no difference between the two IVM media in terms of percentages of oocyte maturation and blastocyst production. However, the percentage of male pronuclear formation after IVF and the total cell numbers in blastocysts were higher with the defined system. Zygotes obtained by the two IVM systems survived vitrification at similar rates. In conclusion, the two IVM systems were both effective for the production of Ban pig embryos; however, better embryo quality was achieved with the defined one.  相似文献

It is clear that, in the horse, there are many weak links in the process of in vitro embryo production; an optimal culture system for equine oocytes does not exist, and related data are conflicting. Therefore, the ability of 3 different culture systems to support embryonic development of ICSI horse oocytes was examined. Oocytes (n = 261) suitable for culture were collected from 55 ovaries and divided, according to cumulus morphology, into 2 categories: expanded cumulus and compacted cumulus. Oocytes with expanded and compacted cumulus were cultured for in vitro maturation in TCM 199 + 10% FCS + 0.1 iu/ml FSH/LH at 38.5 degrees C under 5% CO2 in air for 24 and 40 h, respectively. Oocytes (n = 149) reached metaphase II and were subjected to ICSI with frozen semen and then incubated in 3 different culture systems: A) TCM 199 + 10% FCS alone or B) on granulosa cell monolayer, C) SOF + MEM amino acids + 0.8% BSA. Cultural conditions were 39 degrees C and 5% CO2 in air for A and B, while a gas mixture (5% CO2, 5% O2, 90% N2) was used for C. The fertilisation rate was 32%. The cleavage rate in Group A was 74.4% (32/43); 18 embryos reached 2-6 cell stage, eight 8-16 cell, four 16-32 cell and two >32 cell. In Group B, the cleavage rate was 73.5% (36/49) with better results in embryonic development; 14 reached 2-6 cell stage, eighteen 8-16 cell, twelve 16-32 cell and five >32 cell. In Group C, the cleavage rate was significantly lower then in A and B; only 15 of 47 ICSI oocytes (39.1%) cleaved with maximum development to 2-6 cell stage. The remaining oocytes (68.1%) degenerated during culture. In conclusion, IVM horse oocytes can be fertilised in vitro with high efficiency with ICSI and co-culture systems showed to be superior in supporting in vitro embryo culture compared to simple ones. The identification of the factors beneficial to in vitro embryo development provided by the somatic cells could be important to optimise the embryo culture systems for equine embryos.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of centrifugation pretreatment on the viability and nuclear status of porcine in vitro matured (IVM) oocytes and on the developmental competence of in vitro fertilized (IVF) oocytes (zygotes) after cryopreservation by vitrification (Solid Surface Vitrification; SSV). Mature oocytes having the first polar body after IVM and zygotes having the second polar body at 10 h after IVF were centrifuged at 10,000 x g at 37 C for 20 min and then subjected to SSV. Their viability was evaluated by morphological appearance and fluorescein diacetate staining. The nuclear status of oocytes was evaluated 6 h after vitrification. The developmental ability to the blastocyst stage of vitrified zygotes was evaluated after 6 days of in vitro culture. Although centrifugation did not damage the oocytes directly, it drastically reduced the rate of live oocytes after SSV. The rates of vitrification-induced parthenogenetic activation were similar in both centrifuged and non-centrifuged oocytes (42.4 and 47.4%, respectively). Centrifugation had no significant effects on the viability of pronuclear oocytes. The development of vitrified zygotes to the blastocyst stage was significantly lower than that of the control irrespective of centrifugation pretreatment. There was no difference in the cleavage and blastocyst rates between the control and centrifuged zygotes after vitrification. There was also no difference in the total cell numbers of blastocysts between the control and centrifuged zygotes irrespective of vitrification. These results reveal that, in IVM porcine oocytes, centrifugation pretreatment is highly detrimental to cryotolerance; however, in zygotes, it has only a slight effect on viability and does not alter the developmental competence of surviving zygotes.  相似文献

This study was aimed to optimize glucose level at different stages of buffalo in vitro embryo production procedure. Three glucose levels (1.5, 5.6 and 10 mm ) along with a control (0 mm ) were used at three phases of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) procedure viz. in vitro maturation (IVM), in vitro culture (IVC‐I) (12–72 hpi) and IVC‐II (72 hpi to 7 dpi). Maturation rate of oocytes was found different under different glucose concentrations, and significantly more number of oocytes reached to MII under 5.6 mm glucose. The glucose levels at each phase (IVM, IVC‐I and IVC‐II) individually had significant effect on blastocyst rate, and the level used at one phase had significant effect on the outcome of next phase. Complete withdrawal of glucose from any of these stages irrespective of concentrations used at subsequent stage/s resulted in significantly lower number of blastocysts. However, the changing levels of glucose had differential effects during different phases of IVF steps. The most prominent effect of glucose level was observed during IVM. The presence of 5.6 mm glucose at all stages was most effective to yield highest blastocyst rate in buffalo IVF system.  相似文献

Previous research by this group (2003) has demonstrated that heat stress during in vitro culture (IVC) significantly increased early embryo mortality. The experiments reported here examine the effects of heat treatment (HT) during in vitro maturation (IVM) and during in vitro fertilization (IVF). One 24 h cycle of HT entailed a series of 0.5 degrees C incubator temperature increases from 39 degrees C to 39.5 degrees C for 2 h, to 40 degrees C for 2 h, to 40.5 degrees C for 4 h, 41 degrees C for 4 h, 40.5 degrees C for 6 h and 40 degrees C for 6 h. This cycle mimics rectal temperatures recorded in high producing, grain fed dairy cows in hot climates. Experiment I studied the effects of one cycle of heat-treatment during IVF on the rate of cleavage of in vitro matured presumptive zygotes. Total cleavage rate in the HT group (37.8%) was lower than that of the control group (54.6%, p < 0.05). Experiment II repeated the HT of experiment I but preceded it with a cycle of HT during IVM. The total cleavage rates for control and heat treatment groups were 75.5% and 37.9%, respectively, with a significant difference of p < 0.001 identified. Experiment III examined the rates of embryonic development to >or=8-cell stage (after 72 h IVC) and to morula or blastocyst (M/B) stage (after 144 h IVC) following HT of the oocyte groups during the preceding IVM or IVF. Rates of development to >or=8-cell stage (at 72 h IVC) and to M/B stage (after 144 h IVC) for the control group were 27.5% and 35.8%. Those of IVM-only HT and IVF-only HT groups were 13.8% and 14.6%, and 8.6% and 14.3%, respectively. Both groups of heat treated embryos developed at significantly lower rates (p < 0.05) than did the control group. These results suggest that hyperthermia during oocyte maturation and/or fertilization adversely affects oocyte maturation and fertilization rates and retards further embryonic development.  相似文献

The present study examined the effect of nerve growth factor (NGF) on in vitro maturation (IVM), in vitro fertilisation (IVF) and subsequent embryonic development of porcine oocytes. Cumulus-oocyte complexes were cultured with or without 1.0 ng/ml NGF for 40 h. After IVF, they were cultured in vitro for 6 days. After 10 and 20 h of IVM, there was no difference in nuclear status between the NGF-treated and control oocytes. Significant differences were detected in nuclear progression of oocytes matured in the presence or absence of NGF at 30 h of culture. A higher proportion of NGF-treated oocytes were at M-II stage compared to the control. Nevertheless, at the end of the 40-h IVM period, there was no difference in the proportion of M-II stage oocytes between the NGF-treated and control groups. NGF in IVM medium did not influence the developmental competence of putative embryos. Most embryos remained at the 2- to 4-cell stage; however, a significant amount of embryos reached the morula stage both in the NGF and the control groups. These results suggest that NGF during IVM accelerates nuclear progression of porcine oocytes by enhancing the post-diakinetic events of meiosis.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of resveratrol (RES) at different concentrations (0,0.5,2.0,5.0 μmol/L) on in vitro fertilization (IVF) and antioxidant capacity of ovine oocytes and the secretion of steroid hormones by cumulus cells.Sheep oocytes were fertilized in vitro after maturated in different concentrations of RES for 24 h,and the in vitro maturation (IVM) medium was collected for detecting the enzyme activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD),glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and the content of monochrome display adapter (MDA).The ELISA method was used to detect the concentration of estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4).The results showed that when compared to the control group,adding 0.5 μmol/L RES to the IVM medium significantly increased the cleavage rate (P<0.05),but had no significant effect on the fertilization rate and blastocyst rate (P>0.05);5.0 μmol/L RES significantly reduced the fertilization rate,cleavage rate and blastocyst rate (P<0.05),which had an inhibitory effect on embryonic development.Adding 0.5 μmol/L RES to IVM and IVC (in vitro culture,IVC) medium significantly increased the fertilization rate,cleavage rate and blastocyst rate (P<0.05).Compared to the control group,the addition of RES to IVM solution had a certain inhibitory effect on the secretion of E2 by cumulus cells,5.0 μmol/L RES significantly reduced E2 concentration (P<0.05);0.5 μmol/L RES significantly increased the P4 secretion of cumulus cells (P<0.05).0.5 and 2.0 μmol/L RES increased the activity of SOD,GSH-Px and other enzymes,but there was no significant difference when compared with the control group (P>0.05),but significantly reduced MDA content (P<0.05),while 5.0 μmol/L RES significantly reduced the activity of antioxidant enzymes and increased the content of MDA (P>0.05).In conclusion,0.5 μmol/L RES simultaneously added to IVM and IVC medium could enhance the antioxidant capacity of oocytes and concentration of P4,and reduced the content of MDA,thus improved the cleavage rate and blastocyst rate.  相似文献

In this study, we examined the effects of superstimulation using follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH) followed by gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GnRH) on buffalo embryo production by ultrasound‐guided ovum pick‐up (OPU) and in vitro fertilization (IVF). Nine Murrah buffaloes were subjected to OPU‐IVF without superstimulation (control). The morphologies of the oocytes collected were evaluated, and oocytes were then submitted to in vitro maturation (IVM). Two days after OPU, same nine buffaloes were treated with twice‐daily injections of FSH for 3 days for superstimulation followed by a GnRH injection. Oocytes were collected by OPU 23–24 hr after the GnRH injection and submitted to IVM (the superstimulated group). The total number of follicles, number of follicles with a diameter > 8 mm, and number of oocytes surrounded by multi‐layered cumulus cells were higher in the superstimulated group than in the control group (p ≤ 0.05). After IVF, the percentages of cleavage and development to blastocysts were higher in the superstimulated group than in the control group (p < 0.05). In conclusion, superstimulation improved the quality of oocytes and the embryo productivity of OPU‐IVF in river buffaloes.  相似文献
