In vitro fertilization (IVF) provides an excellent and inexpensive source of embryos for carrying out basic research on developmental physiology, farm animal breeding, and for commercial applications. Meta-analysis of the results from different publications rather than a narrative review may provide a current status of this technology in buffalo (Bubalus bubalis). In order to gain an idea of the factors affecting the IVF in buffalo, a review of the various studies conducted on buffalo IVF and a meta-analysis of their findings was undertaken. More than 100 articles published from 1991 to 2008 were searched, and results were subjected to meta-analysis to determine the treatment variations without any bias. Thirty factors affecting in vitro embryo production in buffalo were considered. Initially, both fixed- and random-effect models were used. We did not observe any heterogeneity between the studies. Thereafter, all the studies were pooled using the fixed-effect model for analysis. Our analysis suggested that good buffalo oocytes with more than three to five cumulus layers recovered from large-sized follicles in cold seasons when cultured in TCM-199 supplemented with serum, follicle-stimulating hormone, and cysteamine resulted in maximum maturation rate and subsequent embryonic development after insemination. The values obtained in the current study may be considered for a simulation model in establishing a cost-effective suitable method for buffalo IVF in further planned research. 相似文献

This study was conducted to determine the sex of buffalo embryos produced in vitro by amplifying male specific DNA sequences using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This method uses three different pairs of bovine Y-chromosome specific primers and a pair of bovine satellite specific primers. Buffalo in vitro fertilized embryos at the 4-cell to blastocyst stage were collected at days 3, 4, 6, and 8 postinsemination, and the sex of each embryo was determined using all three different Y-chromosome specific primers. The bovine satellite sequence specific primers recognize similar sequences in buffalo and are amplified both in males and in females. Similarly, Y-chromosome specific primers amplify the similar Y-chromosome specific sequences in male embryos of buffalo. Upon examining genomic DNA from lymphocytes of adult males and females, and embryos, the results demonstrate the feasibility of embryo sexing in buffaloes. Furthermore, sex determination by PCR was found to be a rapid and accurate method. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Development of 8-cell bovine embryos derived from in vitro matured/in vitro fertilized (IVM/IVF) oocytes was evaluated in two simple, serum-free media (CZB and SOM) with buffalo rat liver cells co-culture (BRLC) or after conditioning compared to a commonly used, serum-supplemented complex medium TCM-199. In a 3 x 4 factorial design, 578 eight-cell embryos were randomly assigned to 12 treatment groups. The factors were: first, type of culture medium (M199/FBS, CZBg and SOM), and second, the use of BRLC (as co-culture or to condition media for 24 hr and 48 hr) and unconditioned media. Development to morula was not affected by the type of medium, but co-culture and 48 hr conditioning within media type resulted in better development when compared to the 24-hr conditioned or unconditioned groups. Blastocyst development in SOM (38.9%) was different (P < 0.05) than in CZBg (46.6%) and M199/FBS (48.7%) and was lowest in the unconditioned group (27.8%) followed by 24 hr conditioned (33.3%), 48 hr (56.3%), and co-culture (59.6%). No blastocyst expansion was observed with unconditioned media and 24 hr conditioned SOM. Significant differences (P < 0.05) were found among all treatment groups except the co-culture and 48-hr conditioned groups. Hatching occurred only with co-culture and 48-hr conditioned groups of M199/FBS and CZBg media. These data show that CZB with glucose conditioned by BRLC monolayers for 48 hr can support the development of IVM/IVF produced bovine embryos to blastocyst compared to culture in TCM-199 with serum. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

In vitro embryo production in the domestic bitch can provide valuable insights for conservation of endangered canids. In the present study, canine oocytes underwent in vitro maturation (IVM) in simple or complex media, with production of in vitro matured and fertilized (IVM/IVF) canine embryos. Cumulus–oocyte complexes (COCs) were harvested from ovaries by slicing and subjected to IVM in four media (SOF, TCM 199, Ham-F10, and DMEM/F12). After culture for 48 h, oocytes were stained and examined for nuclear maturation. There were no significant differences in the mean (±S.D.) percentage of nuclear maturation (metaphase II) of oocytes cultured in SOF (18.6 ± 7.6%), TCM 199 (18.3 ± 4.5%), Ham-F10 (13.9 ± 8.2%), or DMEM/F12 (11.9 ± 4.2%). For assessment of embryo development, oocytes were matured for 48 h in synthetic oviductal fluid (SOF), fertilized with frozen-thawed sperm, and presumptive zygotes were cultured for 7 d, either in SOF or as co-cultures with BRL cells in TCM 199. Percentages of IVM/IVF oocytes that developed to the 2-cell, 3–4-cell, and 5–7-cell stages were higher (P < 0.05) following culture in SOF versus BRL cell co-cultures (33.6 ± 1.2% vs 13.7 ± 1.2%, 24.7 ± 0.5% vs 8.7 ± 1.1%, and 15.1 ± 2.2% vs 4.3 ± 1.3%, respectively). However, none of the embryos developed beyond the 8–16-cell stage. In conclusion, simple or complex media successfully induced resumption of meiosis and nuclear maturation of canine oocytes. Furthermore, SOF supported in vitro development of IVM/IVF canine embryos to the 8–16-cell stage. 相似文献

The purpose was to assess the developmental competence of the in vitro or in vivo matured human oocytes as well as the apoptotic genes expression of cumulus cells (CCs) regarding nuclear maturity status of associated oocytes retrieved from stimulated ICSI cycles. A total of 590 oocytes and the associated CCs were retrieved and divided into groups of test and control according to the nuclear maturity status in order to the developmental evaluation as well as expression patterns of apoptosis-related genes using real time PCR. The fertilization and embryo formation rates were 60.3% and 87.5% vs.69.1% and 92.8% in test and control groups, respectively. Good quality embryos on day 3 were 62.2% in test and 69.1% in control groups. There were significant differences in the rates of normal fertilized as well as unfertilized oocytes between the groups. Also, mRNA levels of some apoptotic genes were significantly higher in the CCs obtained from immature oocytes among patients with premature ovarian factors (POF) rather than other infertility etiologies (p?<?0.001). The data demonstrated the developmental competence of in vitro matured oocytes ?even to good quality cleavage embryos- is not completely consistent with molecular integrity and well-mannered gene expression patterns resulting to ICSI success. It seems that using immature oocytes could be helpful for patients at risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) as the same as patients with diminished ovarian reserve. 相似文献

Enucleated mouse oocytes were successfully fertilized in vitro, and the resultant androgenetic eggs developed to the blastocyst stage. The proportion of enucleated oocytes fertilized in vitro was high (87–99%) at sperm concentrations ranging from 10–100 × 104/ml. At high sperm concentrations (100–1,000 × 104), 35–45% of the fertilized eggs resulted in heterozygous bispermic androgenones. The proportion of hemizygous haploid and heterozygous diploid androgenones developing to blastocysts was 11% and 43%, respectively. Hemizygous diploidization, however, showed no positive effect on development. These results clearly show that the procedure reported here is efficient and reliable for the production of androgenetic eggs. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Single blastomeres from eight-cell stage bovine embryos matured and fertilized in vitro were electrically fused with enucleated oocytes matured in vitro. In experiment 1, The percentage of these reconstituted embryos developed to the two- to eight-cell stage 48 hr after electrofusion was increased when both the eight-cell embryos and the enucleated oocytes were derived from oocytes cultured with granulosa cells (14% vs. 38%). In experiment 2, the relationship between activation of oocytes and developmental ability of reconstituted embryos was examined. Although both ethanol and electrical stimulation efficiently induced parthenogenetic activation of oocytes matured in vitro for 26–28 hr (ethanol, 89%; electrical stimulation, 73%), the ratio of the second polarbody extrusion differed (80% vs. 22%). Ethanol-treated enucleated oocytes, however, were not significantly different from the early cleavage of the reconstituted embryos 48 hr after electrofusion (nontreated, 38%; treated, 43%). In experiment 3, reconstituted embryos at the two- to eight-cell stage 48 hr after the electrofusion were cocultured with granulosa cells for 6–7 days. Of 69 embryos, one developed to a morula and three developed to blastocysts. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to identify a cryo-device that would be best suited for the vitrification of buffalo immature cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) as judged by viability and meiotic competence of the vitrified-warmed oocytes and their development ability following in vitro fertilization (IVF). The expression of oocyte secreting factors and their receptors (GDF9, BMP15, BMPR2, TGFBR1) and apoptosis related genes (BCL2, BAX, P53, C-MYC) were compared in vitrified-warmed oocytes after in vitro maturation. COCs from the ovaries of slaughtered buffaloes were vitrified in a combination of dimethyl sulfoxide, ethylene glycol, and sucrose using either a conventional straw (CS), open pulled straw (OPS), cryoloop (CL), hemistraw (HS) or cryotop (CT). The fresh COCs were exposed to vitrification and warming solutions as in other vitrification methods without plunging in to liquid nitrogen (EC). The viability of vitrified-warmed COCs, 2 h post warming in HS and CT was similar to fresh and EC groups but significantly higher than CS and OPS methods. The proportions of oocytes with first polar body after 24 h in vitro maturation were significantly higher in HS and CT methods than in CS, OPS and CL methods. The development ability of these vitrified-warmed oocytes to blastocyst stage following IVF in all vitrified groups was significantly lower than control and EC groups. Among the vitrified groups, the blastocyst rate in HS, CT and CL groups was significantly higher than in OPS and CS groups. It was also observed that the expression levels of GDF9, BMP15, BMPR2, TGFBR1, BCL2, BAX, P53 and C-MYC genes in vitrified-warmed COCs in CT, HS and CL groups were similar to control. The results indicated that HS, CT and CL are more suitable cryo-devices for vitrification of buffalo immature oocytes. 相似文献

In the present study, we examined the ability of immature germinal vesicle (GV) and subjected to in vitro matured (MII) yak oocytes to survive after cryopreservation as well as their subsequent development following in vitro maturation and fertilization. Both GV and MII oocytes were cryopreserved by using two different vitrification solutions (VS); VS-I contained 10% ethylene glycol (EG) and 10% dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) in TCM-199 + 20% (v/v) fetal calf serum (FCS) whereas VS-II contained 40% EG + 18% Ficoll + 0.5 M sucrose in TCM-199 + 20% FCS. The percentage of oocytes found to be morphologically normal was greater (P < 0.01) in VS-I group than in VS-II group. Rates of cleavage (30.6–42.2%) and blastocyst formation (2.9–8.9%) did not differ among groups, but were lower than in unfrozen control (55.7% and 25.4%, P < 0.01). These results show that a combination of EG and DMSO or EG, Ficoll and sucrose can be used to cryopreserve yak oocytes in French straws. 相似文献

Our goals were to: (1) determine if domestic cat sperm could be sorted to high purity by flow cytometry after overnight shipment of cooled samples; (2) evaluate the efficiency with which sorted sperm could be used to generate cat embryos in vitro; and (3) determine if live kittens of predetermined sex could be produced after transfer of embryos derived by IVF using sorted sperm. Semen samples (n = 5) from one male were extended in electrolyte-free solution and shipped overnight at 4 °C to the sorting facility. Samples were adjusted to 75 × 106 sperm/mL and stained with Hoechst 33342. After 1 h at 34.5 °C, samples were adjusted to 50 × 106 sperm/mL with 4% egg yolk TALP + 0.002% food dye and sorted by high-speed flow cytometry. Later resort analysis confirmed purities of 94% and 83% for X- and Y-chromosome bearing sperm, respectively. Sorted sperm were centrifuged, re-suspended in TEST yolk buffer and shipped overnight to the IVF laboratory. After IVF of in vivo matured oocytes with X-chromosome bearing sperm, cleavage frequency was 62% (54/87). After IVF of IVM oocytes with control, X- or Y-chromosome bearing sperm, the incidence of cleavage was 42% (48/115), 33% (40/120), and 35% (52/150), respectively, and blastocyst development was 53% (21/40), 50% (11/22), and 55% (23/42), respectively (P > 0.05). On Day 2, 45 embryos produced by IVF of in vivo matured oocytes with X-chromosome bearing sperm were transferred to the oviduct of four Day 1 recipients, three of which subsequently delivered litters of one, four, and seven female kittens, respectively. In conclusion, we confirmed that sperm sorting technology can be applied to domestic cats and established that kittens of predetermined sex can be produced. 相似文献

Proteomic data from embryos are essential for the completion of whole proteome catalog due to embryo‐specific expression of certain proteins. In this study, using reverse phase LC‐MS/MS combined with 1‐D SDS‐PAGE, we identified 1625 mammalian and 735 Sus scrofa proteins from porcine zygotes that included both cytosolic and membranous proteins. We also found that the global protein profiles of parthenogenetically activated (PA) and in vitro fertilized (IVF) zygotes were similar but differences in expression of individual proteins were also evident. These differences were not due to culture conditions, polyspermy or non‐activation of oocytes, as the same culture method was used in both groups, the frequency of polyspermy was 24.3±3.0% and the rates of oocyte activation did not differ (p>0.05) between PA and IVF embryos. Consistent with proteomic data, fluorescent Hoechst 33 342 staining and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling assay also revealed that PA embryos were of poor quality as they contained less cells per blastocyst and were more predisposed to apoptosis (p<0.05), although their in vitro development rates were similar. To our knowledge, this is the first report on global peptide sequencing and quantification of protein in PA and IVF embryos by LC‐MS/MS that may be useful as a reference map for future studies. 相似文献

In vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryonic development of mature and meiotically arrested porcine oocytes were compared in the present study. After in vitro maturation (IVM) of cumulus-oocyte complexes for 48 h, 75.4% of them extruded a visible polar body (PB). Most of the oocytes with a first polar body (PB+ group) were at the metaphase-II (M-II) stage (91.4%). Most of the oocytes without a visible polar body (PB− group) appeared to be arrested at the germinal vesicle (GV) (41.6%) and metaphase-I (M-I) (34.0%) stages. After IVF of oocytes (day of IVF = Day 0), there was no difference between PB+ and PB− groups in rates of sperm penetration, mono-spermy, however oocyte activation rate after penetration was greater in the PB+ than in the PB− group (P < 0.05). On Day 2, there was no difference between rates of embryos cleaved at the 2–4 cell stages in PB+ and PB− groups (42.1 ± 48.8% and 33.6 ± 2.1%, respectively). On Day 4, the rate of PB+ embryos developing beyond the 4-cell stage was greater than that of PB− embryos (P < 0.05, 31.7 ± 3.9% and 14.1 ± 1.5%, respectively), and PB+ embryos had more cells than the PB− embryos (P < 0.05, 8.3 ± 0.4 and 6.0 ± 0.8 cells, respectively). On Day 6, a greater proportion of PB+ embryos developed to the blastocyst stage than did PB− embryos (P < 0.05, 34.6 ± 2.4% and 20.7 ± 2.8%, respectively). However, when the GV oocytes of the PB− group were not included in recalculations, there was no difference in blastocyst rates between M-I arrested and M-II oocytes (35.3 and 34.6%, respectively). The number of blastomere nuclei in embryos obtained from the PB+ group (52.0 ± 2.5) was greater than that from the PB− group (P < 0.05, 29.1 ± 2.8). The proportion of degenerated parts in the blastocysts, as determined by morphological appearance, was the same in the PB+ and PB− groups. Although the quality of PB+ embryos was enhanced as compared with that of the PB− group, the proportion of inner cell mass and trophectoderm cells in PB+ and PB− blastocysts did not differ (1:1.9 and 1:2.2, respectively). Chromosome analysis revealed that PB+ blastocysts had more diploidy (P < 0.05, 69.7%) than did PB− blastocysts (44.0%), whereas PB− blastocysts had more triploid cells (P < 0.05, 34.0%) than did PB+ oocytes (8.4%). These results indicate that pig oocytes arrested before the M-II stage (M-I oocytes) undergo cytoplasmic maturation during maturation culture and have the same ability to develop to blastocysts after IVF as M-II oocytes, but some of them resulted in degeneration or delayed development with poor embryo quality. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) has been considered a potential regulator of meiotic and cytoplasmic maturation in mammalian oocytes, but inconsistencies exist between earlier studies, probably due to differences in the culture conditions used. Using a serum- and hormone-free in vitro maturation (IVM) medium, this study investigated the specific contribution of EGF on IVM of porcine (Sus scrofa) oocytes and its interactive effects with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), porcine follicular fluid (pFF), cumulus cells, and serum. It was noteworthy that EGF functionally mimicked the action of FSH and could completely replace FSH for nuclear maturation (83.2 ± 4.4% vs. 55.9 ± 5.2%; mean ± SEM), whereas EGF had a synergistic effect with FSH on cytoplasmic maturation of porcine oocytes (P < 0.05). Specific inhibition of EGF receptor (EGFR) by tyrphostin AG 1478 inhibited both EGF- and FSH-induced meiotic resumption (17.9 ± 5.2% and 18.2 ± 4.4%, respectively), thereby suggesting that EGFR signaling pathway was essential for oocyte reentry into the meiotic cell cycle. Furthermore, it is possible that FSH action occurs via the EGFR signaling pathway to induce meiotic maturation, although alternate pathways could not be excluded. There were also individual or combined effects of cumulus cells, FSH, serum, and pFF with EGF on IVM of porcine oocytes (P < 0.05). Although FSH had a synergistic effect with EGF on cytoplasmic maturation, pFF masked the effects of EGF on both nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation of porcine oocytes (P < 0.05). Moreover, the presence of cumulus cells was essential for EGF action. In conclusion, a defined system was used to better examine the effects of EGF. We inferred that EGF functionally mimics FSH for nuclear maturation of porcine oocytes, and its exogenous supplementation into IVM medium can optimize the beneficial effects of FSH on cytoplasmic maturation of oocytes to obtain enhanced embryo development in vitro. 相似文献

The objective was to investigate the effects of oxygen tension and follicle cells (FCs) during in vitro maturation of porcine oocytes in only porcine (Sus scrofa domesticus) follicular fluid (pFF), using static and non-static (rotating) culture systems, on the nuclear maturation and subsequent in vitro fertilization of the oocytes. In the first experiment, cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) were matured for 48 h in pFF supplemented with (+) or without (−) FCs (5.2 × 106 cells/mL), using the static (S) and rotating (R) culture systems (+FC/S, −FC/S, +FC/R, and −FC/R) under 5% or 20% O2. Co-culture with FCs in the static culture system (+FC/S) had a detrimental effect on the meiotic competence of oocytes, whereas co-culture with FCs in the rotating culture system (+FC/R) increased maturation rates. In both culture systems, oxygen tension had no apparent effects on meiotic competence of oocytes, irrespective of culture system and FC addition. In the second experiment, COCs were matured under 5% or 20% O2 using the −FC/S or +FC/R culture systems and then fertilized. Oxygen tension had no significant effects on fertilization parameters, irrespective of the culture system. The rotating culture system increased rates of sperm penetration and male pronuclear formation and decreased polyspermic fertilization compared with the static culture system (P < 0.05). In conclusion, both −FC/S and +FC/R culture systems supported meiotic competence, irrespective of oxygen tension. However, the +FC/R culture system may be superior to the −FC/S culture system for promoting fertilization. 相似文献
