小鼠胚胎体外培养条件的研究

为了探讨小鼠胚胎在体外发育过程中的最佳方案,我们将从超排昆明小鼠取出的５４３枚受精卵经过不同的培养液（Ｍ１６、Ｍ１６＋ＯＥＣ、Ｇｌｕ－ＦｒｅｅＭ１６和Ｇｌｕ－ＦｒｅｅＭ１６＋ＯＥＣ）及不同的培养微环境处理后,观察胚胎体外发育的过程。结果表明,葡萄糖在胚胎发育早期（２细胞期）有比较明显的发育阻断作用,同种输卵管上皮（ＯＥＣ）共同培养能够有效地抑制这种阻断作用;葡萄糖对胚胎８－１６细胞期及以后阶段的发育具有十分重要的作用,而此时ＯＥＣ的作用则不明显;除了葡萄糖外,在早期可能还有其它一些象磷酸盐、重金属离子的物质也能起胚胎发育阻断作用。同时还发现培养微环境的稳定也是胚胎发育的重要保证条件,石蜡油的封盖能够保持某种特定微环境而支持胚胎的体外发育。     

pINC－lacZ逆转录病毒载体的构建及其在小鼠胚胎干细胞中的表达

小鼠胚胎干细胞系（ＥＳ）是从囊胚的内细胞团中建立起来的多潜能胚胎干细胞系。ＥＳ细胞系目前正广泛用于将基因打靶后的突变和其它遗传变化导入小鼠的种系中。其中,嵌合鼠的获得是非常必要的一步。这就需要用一个可以广泛表达的基因对ＥＳ细胞进行标记。大肠杆菌β－半乳糖苷酶（β－ｇａｌ）基因的表达在细胞水平就能很容易地观察到,而且对哺乳动物细胞没有任何毒害作用,因而是一个被广泛地用于各种细胞基因表达研究中的报导基因。猿类巨细胞病毒早期（ＳｉＣＭＶＩＥ）启动子是一个广泛用于转基因小鼠研究中的强启动子。然而,该启动子在ＥＳ细胞方面应用的报道尚未见到。本研究用ＢａｍＨＩ和ＨｉｎｄⅢ双酶切,从ｐｓｖ－β－ｇａｌａｃｔｏｓｉｄａｓｅ中得到３．７Ｋｂ的ｌａｃＺ基因片断,将其插入到ｐＩＮＣ载体上（Ｆｉｇ．１）,得到ｐＩＮＣ－ｌａｃＺ（Ｆｉｇ．２）。用ＮｏｔⅠ线性化ｐＩＮＣ－ｌａｃＺ后,电击导入ＭＥＳＰＵ－１３细胞中。ＭＥＳＰＵ－１３为本实验室从１２９／Ｔｅｒ品系小鼠的囊胚中建立的一个ＥＳ细胞系。转化细胞在含有２５０μｇ／ｍｌＧ４１８的培养基上培养两周,进行ＭＥＳＰＵ－１３细胞稳定转化子的筛选。在一次转化实验中,从１ｘ１０７个转化的ＭＥＳ

An improved culture medium supports development of random-bred 1-cell mouse embryos in vitro

One-cell CF-1 x B6SJLF1/J embryos, which usually exhibit a 2-cell block to development in vitro, have been cultured to the blastocyst stage using CZB medium and a glucose washing procedure. CZB medium is a further modification of modified BMOC-2 containing an increased lactate/pyruvate ratio of 116, 1 mM-glutamine and 0.1 mM-EDTA but lacking glucose. Continuous culture of one-cell embryos in CZB medium allowed 83% of embryos to develop beyond the 2-cell stage of which 63% were morulae at 72 h of culture, but blastocysts did not develop. However, washing embryos into CZB medium containing glucose after 48 h of culture (3-4-cell stage) was sufficient to allow development to proceed, with 48% of embryos reaching the blastocyst stage by 96 h of culture. Exposure of embryos to glucose was only necessary from the 3-4-cell stage through the early morula stage since washing back into medium CZB without glucose at 72 h of culture still promoted the development of 50% of embryos to the blastocyst stage. The presence of glucose in this medium for the first 48 h of culture (1-cell to 4-cell stage) was detrimental to embryo development. Glutamine, however, exerted a beneficial effect on embryo development from the 1-cell to the 4-cell stage although its presence was not required for development to proceed during the final 48 h of culture. Blastocysts which developed under optimum conditions contained an average of 33.7 total cells. The in-vitro development of 1-cell embryos beyond the 2-cell stage in response to the removal of glucose and the addition of glutamine to the culture medium suggests that glucose may block some essential metabolic process, and that glutamine may be a preferred energy substrate during early development for these mouse embryos.     

Development of 1-cell embryos from different strains of mice in CZB medium

One-cell embryos from several different strains of mice have been cultured to the blastocyst stage in CZB medium. CZB medium can be used to culture CF1 x B6SJLF1/J 1-cell embryos to the blastocyst stage provided glucose is introduced into the medium on Day 3 of culture. The amount of glucose required for embryo development was titrated using a concentration range of 5.5 to 49.5 mM. With the exception of the highest concentration, all glucose levels tested supported 65-85% development to the morula and blastocyst stages. Variations of CZB medium were tested for their ability to support the development of 1-cell embryos from 4 strains of mice. For embryos from CF1 and DBA/2J (both x B6SJLF1/J) mice, which exhibit a "2-cell block" to development in vitro, CZB medium containing glutamine with the addition of glucose on Day 3 supported optimum development from the 1-cell stage to morula and blastocysts (79% and 87%). For embryos from B6D2F1/J and CD1 female mice (both x B6SJLF1/J males), which do not exhibit a "2-cell block" to in vitro development, optimum development to morula and blastocyst stages (95% and 50%) was in CZB medium containing both glutamine and glucose from the start of culture.     

Successful development of viable blastocysts from enhanced green fluorescent protein transgene-microinjected mouse embryos: comparison of culture media

To improve efficiency of transgenesis, we compared M16 and CZB embryo culture media, supporting development to blastocysts of FVB/N mouse pronuclear-eggs, microinjected with enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) transgene. When EGFP-injected-eggs were cultured (120 hr), blastocyst development was significantly (P < 0.03) higher in M16 medium (72.5 +/- 2.4%) than that in CZB (13.2 +/- 4.3%) or CZBG (CZB with 5.6 mM glucose at 48 hr culture) (62.1 +/- 3.7%) media. Blastocyst development of noninjected embryos was higher in M16 (92.0 +/- 2.6%) and CZBG (83.9 +/- 3.9%) media than in CZB (31.9 +/- 2.8%) medium (P < 0.0001). However, percentages of morulae at 72 hr were comparable in all treatments. Developed blastocysts were better in M16 than in CZB or CZBG media. Consistent with this, mean cell number per blastocyst, developed from injected embryos, was significantly (P < 0.002) higher in M16 medium (79.6), than those in CZB (31.3) or CZBG media (60.7); similar with noninjected embryos. Cell allocation to trophectoderm (TE) and inner cell mass (ICM), i.e., TE:ICM ratio, for injected blastocysts in M16 (3.0) was less than (P < 0.05) those in CZB (4.2) and CZBG (4.4) media; similar with noninjected blastocysts. Moreover, blastocysts, developed in M16 and CZBG media, hatched, attached, and exhibited trophoblast outgrowth; 18% of them showed EGFP-expression. Importantly, blastocysts from M16 medium produced live transgenic "green" pups (11%) following embryo transfer. Taken together, our results indicate that supplementation of glucose, at 48 hr of culture (CZBG), is required for morula to blastocyst transition; M16 medium, containing glucose from the beginning of culture, is superior to CZB or CZBG for supporting development of biologically viable blastocysts from EGFP-transgene-injected mouse embryos.     

Co-culture of rabbit one-cell embryos with rabbit oviduct epithelial cells

Summary Rabbit 1-cell embryos were co-cultured with rabbit oviduct epithelial cells (ROEC) to determine if ROEC can enhance embryo development in vitro. Primary ROEC were cultured in serum-free media at 39°C in a 5% CO₂:95% air environment. In experiment 1, 1-cell embryos were co-cultured in Ham's F10 with freshly collected or 4-d-old cultures of ROEC seeded in plastic culture wells or on collagen membranes. One-cell embryos cultured without ROEC served as controls. After 65 h in culture, embryos were stained with Hoechst 33342 to determine the number of cells per embryo. Cell numbers were higher (P<0.035) in all co-culture treatments when compared to controls. Optimal development was obtained by co-culture with 4-d-old ROEC grown on plastic (P<0.003). In experiment 2, Ham's F10, Medium 199, and CZB with glucose medium were compared for their ability to support embryo development in the presence or absence of 4-d-old ROEC growth on plastic. Cell number and the percentage of embryos becoming blastocysts were significantly (P<0.002) higher for embryos cultured in Medium 199 compared to the other media tested. In Medium 199, co-culture with ROEC resulted in only a slight, nonsignificant increase in cell number over culture in Medium 199 alone (110 vs. 96 cells). However, the percentage of embryos reaching the blastocyst stage when co-cultured in Medium 199 with ROEC (49%) was nearly twice (P=0.01) that of embryos in Medium 199 without ROEC (26%). In experiment 3, transfer of embryos cultured in Medium 199 with or without ROEC of 24 or 48 h resulted in no significant differences in posttransfer development. These data indicate a beneficial effect of ROEC on blastogenesis and a salvage effect of ROEC on cell proliferation in embryos grown in a less supportive medium such as Ham's F10. This work was supported by a Multicenter Cooperative Program on Non-HumanIn Vitro Fertilization and Preimplantation Development and was funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, NIH, Bethesda, MD, through Cooperative Agreement HD 21939.     

One-minute exposure of 4-cell mouse embryos to glucose overcomes morula block in CZB medium

One-cell mouse embryos that block at the 2-cell stage can progress to the morula stage in CZB medium, but fail to cavitate and then swell and lyse. A 1-min exposure to 27 mM glucose at the 4-cell stage (～42 hr) will support a high frequency of development to the blastocyst stage (75%) in the same medium. A glucose exposure is beneficial anytime between 30 and 54 hr of culture (67–73% blastocysts). Of a group of additional sugars and glucose analogues tested for their ability to replace glucose, only galactose was equivalent in promoting embryo development to the blastocyst stage (64% blastocysts). © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

In vitro development of DNA-injected embryos co-cultured with goat oviduct epithelial cells in Korean native goats (Capra hircus aegagrus)

In vitro development of Korean native goat embryos was investigated in 2 different culture systems with and without goat oviduct epithelial cells (GOEC). Estrus was synchronized by inserting intravaginal progestagen-impnegnated sponge (Veramix) containing 60 mg medroxyprogesterone acetate (MAP) for 14 d. Superovulation was induced with follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). Goat ova were surgically obtained by retrograde flushing the oviducts of does at 66 to 68 h after MAP removal. Mean number of recovered ova per doe was 7.28 +/- 3.91, and the proportion of fertilized embryos in recovered ova was 66.5% (121/182 ). Fertilized embryos were cultured for 9 d in CR1aa medium supplemented with 10% estrous goat serum (EGS) at 38.5 degrees C, 5% CO(2) in air. There was no difference in development of the embryos to the morula stage between the 2 culture systems (84.4 and 84.0%, respectively). However, developmental rate to blastocysts (65.6%) of the embryos co-cultured with GOEC was significantly higher than of those (12.0%) cultured without GOEC (P < 0.001). Goat zygotes were injected with bovine beta-casein/human lactoferrin cDNA fusion gene (pBL1). When the DNA-injected embryos were co-cultured with GOEC, developmental rates of the embryos to the morula and blastocyst stages were 82.9 and 36.6%, respectively. The results obtained in this study indicate that "blocking" of in vitro development of Korean native goat embryos appears to occur at the morula stage, but can be overcome to some extent by co-culture with GOEC. In the co-culture system, DNA-injected goat embryos could successfully develop to normal hatching blastocysts.     

The novel use of modified pig zygotic medium for the efficient culture of the preimplantation mouse embryos

A high potassium concentration in culture media is considered detrimental to in vitro culture of mouse embryos. Here we show that pig zygotic medium (PZM) containing a higher concentration of potassium, and modified to contain 0.2 mM glucose and 0.01 mM EDTA, supported efficient pre- and post-implantation development of mouse zygotes to blastocysts and live pups, respectively. At first, modified PZM (mPZM) was compared with other culture media such as M16, CZB and KSOM-AA for its ability to support development of in vivo mouse zygotes to the blastocyst stage. The proportions of zygotes reaching 2-cell (94-99%) and blastocyst (90-96%) stages in mPZM and other media were not different. However, hatching rates of blastocysts were different (P < 0.05); whereas more than 90% of the blastocysts were hatching in mPZM or KSOM-AA, only 60% of the blastocysts did in M16 or CZB media (P < 0.05). Next we compared post-implantation development of in vitro fertilized zygotes developed to blastocysts in mPZM and KSOM-AA. The proportion of blastocysts developing into live pups was not different between mPZM (49%) and KSOM-AA (44%). Finally, we evaluated whether mPZM could be also used as a fertilization medium. Modified PZM containing 5.56 mM of glucose and 0.4% BSA efficiently supported IVF of mouse gametes. The percent of zygotes cleaving to 2-cell (94-98%) and blastocysts (91-93%) stage was not different from zygotes fertilized in human tubal fluid medium. We concluded that modified pig zygotic medium containing a higher potassium concentration than any other commonly used mouse media supported not only culture of mouse embryos, but also efficient IVF of mouse gametes.

The roles of pyruvate, lactate and glucose during preimplantation development of embryos from F1 hybrid mice in vitro.

Embryos of certain inbred mouse strains, and their F1 hybrids, are able to develop from the 1-cell to blastocyst stage in simple chemically defined media containing lactate (L), pyruvate (P) and glucose (G). The individual roles of these substrates in supporting complete preimplantation development in vitro was examined with 1-cell F2 embryos from B6CBF1 hybrid mice. Embryos collected between 26 and 27 h post hCG were cultured in medium containing L, P, LP or LPG. After 50 h in culture, the proportions developing to the morula stage were 1%, 83%, 94% and 100%, respectively. In combination, lactate and pyruvate appeared to act synergistically and both the rate and level of development to the morula stage were unaffected by the absence of glucose. After a further 46 h in culture, only the embryos grown in the presence of glucose developed into blastocysts. In LP medium, embryos arrested at the compacted morula stage late on day 3 of development. As culture continued in the absence of glucose, embryos decompacted (approximately 82 h post hCG) and subsequently degenerated. Exposure to medium containing glucose for the first, second or third 24 h period in culture was sufficient to support the morula-to-blastocyst transition. Glucose still supported this transition when embryos were transferred to LPG medium 3 h after the completion of compaction (76 h post hCG), but was ineffective 6 h later (82 h post hCG) once decompaction had commenced. We conclude that lactate and pyruvate together are able to support normal development of 1-cell F2 embryos to the morula stage in vitro, but that glucose is an essential component of the culture medium for development to the blastocyst stage.     

Co-culture of rabbit 2-cell embryos with rabbit oviduct epithelial cells and other somatic cells

Rabbit 2-cell embryos were co-cultured in Basel Synthetic Medium II + 10% fetal bovine serum with one of the following: primary cultures of rabbit oviduct epithelial cells (ROEC), a rabbit kidney epithelioid cell line (RK13), a rabbit epidermal epithelioid cell line (Sf1), or a rabbit skin fibroblast-like cell line (RAB9). Embryos cultured in medium alone served as controls. After 4 d of culture at 39 degrees C in 5% CO2 in air, 77-93% of the rabbit embryos which were co-cultured with somatic cells had reached the blastocyst stage, and 60-76% were hatching through their zonae pellucidae. These percentages, however, were not significantly different (P greater than .05) from those of embryos in medium alone, of which 90% had reached the blastocyst stage and 83% were hatching. Mean intrazonal embryo diameters also did not differ significantly among treatments (239-302 microns). Bovine 1-8-cell embryos were also co-cultured with ROEC. This stimulated 60% of these embryos to develop beyond the so-called "16-cell block" in vitro, whereas 0% of the embryos cultured in medium alone developed past this block. Evaluation of the ROEC cultures by light microscopy, immunocytochemistry, and gel electrophoretic analysis of conditioned medium, together with the positive results with bovine embryos, indicate that the ROEC culture partially simulates oviductal conditions in vivo. Therefore, our results suggest that oviduct epithelial cells may play a less pivotal role in regulating early development in the rabbit than in the cow.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
