A serum-free medium for use in a cumulus cell co-culture system for bovine embryos derived from in vitro maturation and in vitro fertilization 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The objective of this study was to develop a serum-free medium for the co-culture of bovine embryos that would yield a percentage of blastocysts equal to that obtained with fetal bovine serum (FBS)-supplemented medium. Cumulus cell-enclosed oocytes (CEO) matured and inseminated in vitro were cultured in a tissue culture medium (TCM)-199 or in a serum-free medium (bovine embryo culture medium; BECM) until 240 h post insemination. Replacement of 10% (v/v) FBS with either 3 mg crystallized bovine serum albumin (BSA)/ml or 3 mg fatty acid-free BSA/ml in TCM-199 had no effect (P > 0.14) on embryo development to the >or= 2-cell (51 to 60%), >or= 8-cell (24 to 33%), blastocyst (16 to 19%) and hatched-blastocyst (7 to 10%) stages at 48, 96, 192 and 240 h post insemination, respectively. Oocyte-enclosing cumulus cells in BSA-supplemented medium grew in clusters rather than in layers, as was noted in FBS-supplemented medium. When CEO were cultured in fatty acid-free BSA-supplemented media (TCM-199 and BECM), a significantly (P < 0.001) higher percentage of oocytes developed to blastocysts after culture with (22%) or without (18%) a cumulus cell monolayer than after denuding the oocytes (7%). Glucose in concentrations of 0 to 5.56 mM added for periods of 18 and 120 h post-insemination had neither a stimulatory nor a deleterious effect on preimplantation development. In conclusion, a serum-free medium supplemented with BSA can be successfully used in a cumulus cell co-culture system for bovine embryos. 相似文献

Mammalian oocytes can undergo spontaneous meiotic maturation when they are liberated from their follicles and cultured in vitro; however, the zona pellucida (ZP) becomes resistant to chymotrypsin digestion, or hardens, when spontaneous maturation occurs in serum-free medium. Schroeder et al. [Biol. Reprod. 43 (1990) 891] described that fetuin, a component of fetal calf serum (FCS), inhibits ZP hardening during oocyte maturation. The aim of this experiment was to study the effect of the presence of cumulus cells and addition of hormones to maturation media on bovine zona hardening and embryo development in medium with and without fetuin. In Experiment I, different concentrations of fetuin were added to the maturation medium. The time necessary for digestion of 50% of the ZP (d50) was not different when oocytes were matured in presence of 10% FCS, 1mg/ml polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), or 4, 1 and 0.25mg/ml of fetuin; cleavage rates were also similar. However, significantly more blastocysts (P<0.05) were formed when FCS was used compared to PVA and 0.25mg/ml of fetuin. In Experiment II, we examined the influence of the presence of cumulus cells and hormones during the maturation of oocytes in media with PVA, BSA, FCS and fetuin. The d50 was significantly higher (P<0.05) when oocytes were matured in presence of cumulus cells. The cleavage rate of cumulus-intact oocytes was similar for all groups. However, when oocytes were partially stripped before maturation, the cleavage rate was significantly higher (P<0.05) when FCS or fetuin was used. In both stripped and non-stripped groups, significantly more blastocysts (P<0.05) were formed when oocytes were matured with FCS compared to BSA and PVA. These results indicate that zona hardening, as described for mouse and human oocytes, does not have a large effect on bovine cumulus-intact oocytes. Apparently fetuin can be used as a substitute for FCS during bovine oocyte maturation, since it leads to similar developmental rates as FCS in intact and partially stripped oocytes. 相似文献

We determined the effects of follicular fluid in the maturation medium on bovine oocyte maturation, fertilization and subsequent development, as well as on the number of cells in blastocysts following culture. Fluid and oocytes from bovine follicles less than 5 mm in diameter were collected from the ovaries of slaughtered cows. For the maturation medium, follicular fluid at concentrations of 10, 30 or 60% (v/v) was added to Medium 199 with Earle's salts supplemented with 0.1 microg/ml estradiol-17 beta (E(2), Experiment 1) or 0.1 microg/ml E2 and 100 IU/ml hCG (Experiment 2). The control medium contained polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP; 3 mg/ml) instead of follicular fluid. After maturation for 24 h, oocytes were fertilized in vitro with bull frozen-thawed spermatozoa and cultured on a monolayer of granulosa cells for 9 d. There were no differences in maturation or fertilization rates of oocytes. In Experiment 1, maturation medium containing 10% follicular fluid did not affect the developmental rate of the oocytes to > 2-cell, 8 to 16-cell, blastocyst and hatched blastocyst stage embryos, respectively; whereas 60% decreased embryonic development (P < 0.05) compared with the control. Blastocysts and hatched blastocysts developed from fertilized oocytes which had been matured in medium containing 10 and 30% follicular fluid/E(2) had more cells than the controls (P < 0.01). In Experiment 2, maturation medium containing 10 or 30% follicular fluid did not affect the development fertilized oocytes to the blastocyst stage compared with the control, but decreased at 60% (P < 0.01). There were no differences in the number of cells from Day 9 blastocysts and hatched blastocysts from fertilized oocytes matured in maturation medium containing follicular fluid and E(2) + hCG. The results of these experiments suggest that the addition of bovine follicular fluid to the maturation medium enhances the cell numbers in blastocysts from bovine follicular oocytes matured in vitro. 相似文献
