ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To search for an optimal activation protocol by comparing the chemical activation effects of single-activator and combined activation protocols on mouse oocytes following injection of round spermatids (ROSI) from spermatogenic cells cultured in vitro.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Using different concentrations of ethanol, ionomycin (Ion), calcium ionophore A23187 (CIA), strontium chloride (SrCl2), cycloheximide (CHX), and 6-dimethylaminopurine (6-DMAP) , we activated post-ROSI oocytes for different times, and activated them by combined protocols at optimal concentrations and action times according to different activation channels. We compared the activation effects of single-activator and combined activation protocols by comparing the rates of fertilization, cleavages, and morulas and blastocysts.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>With a single activator, the optimal protocols of different activators were as follows: 7% ethanol for 6 min, 5 micromol/L CIA for 5 min, 5 micromol/L Ion for 5 min, 2 mmol/L 6-DMAP for 2 h, 10 mmol/L SrCl2 for 1.5 h, and 10 microg/ml CHX for 1.5 h, among which 10 mmol/L SrCl2 for 1.5 h achieved the highest rate of morulas and blastocysts, significantly better than CHX (P < 0.05) but with no remarkable difference from other activators. The ethanol + 6-DMAP group showed a significantly higher rate of morulas and blastocysts (29.63%) than all other combined activation groups and single-activator groups except SrCl2 (P < 0.05), and it also exhibited higher rates of normal fertilization, cleavages and morula than the SrCl2 group, but with no significant difference.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The single-activator 10 mmol/L SrCl2 for 1.5 h and the combined activation of 7% ethanol for 6 min + 2 mmol/L 6-DMAP for 2 h are the optimal protocols for chemical activation of mouse oocytes following ROSI, and the combined activation of ethanol + 6-DMAP is even superior to the single-activator protocol.</p>
