RESUMO

Despite many studies in humans and mice using genome transfer (GT), there are few reports using this technique in oocytes of wild or domestic animals. Therefore, we aimed to establish a GT technique in bovine oocytes using the metaphase plate (MP) and polar body (PB) as the sources of genetic material. In the first experiment, GT was established using MP (GT-MP), and a sperm concentration of 1 × 106 or 0.5 × 106 spermatozoa/ml gave similar fertilization rates. The cleavage rate (50%) and blastocyst rate (13.6%) in the GT-MP group was lower than that of the in vitro production control group (80.2% and 32.6%, respectively). The second experiment evaluated the same parameters using PB instead of MP; the GT-PB group had lower fertilization (82.3% vs. 96.2%) and blastocyst (7.7% vs. 36.8%) rates than the control group. No differences in the amount of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) were observed between groups. Finally, GT-MP was performed using vitrified oocytes (GT-MPV) as a source of genetic material. The cleavage rate of the GT-MPV group (68.4%) was similar to that of the vitrified oocytes (VIT) control group (70.0%) and to that of the control IVP group (81.25%, P < 0.05). The blastocyst rate of GT-MPV (15.7) did not differ neither from the VIT control group (5.0%) nor from the IVP control group (35.7%). The results suggested that the structures reconstructed by the GT-MPV and GT-PB technique develop in embryos even if vitrified oocytes are used.

RESUMO

This study evaluated the effects of three maturation systems, namely invitro (MatV) and invivo (MatS) systems, as well as intrafollicular transfer of immature oocytes (IFIOT; MatT), on the accumulation of lipid droplets in bovine oocytes. Lipids were evaluated using confocal microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The expression of genes related to lipid metabolism, namely acyl-CoA synthetase short chain family member 2 (ACSS2), ELOVL fatty acid elongase 1 (ELOVL1) and fatty acid binding protein 3 (FABP3), was quantified by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The mean (±s.d.) area occupied by lipids in immature oocytes (13±2%) was similar to those matured invivo (MatS, 16±2%; MatT, 12±2%). However, there was a significant increase in lipids in oocytes in the MatV group (24±2%) compared with all other groups (P<0.001). In the ultrastructural evaluations, MatV oocytes also showed the highest lipid content. The expression of ELOVL1 and FABP3 was similar in the MatS and IFIOT groups. However, transcript levels of ACSS2 were lower in IFIOT than MatV oocytes. These results indicate, for the first time, that oocytes matured by IFIOT are similar to those matured invivo with regard to lipid accumulation, which indicates better quality than those matured invitro.

RESUMO

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of meiotic arrest using phosphodiesterase type 3A (PDE 3A) inhibitors, cilostamide and C-type natriuretic peptide (NPPC), on pre-maturation (PM) of oocytes to be used in the production of cloned embryos. Nuclear maturation, in vitro embryo production (IVP), somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) and parthenogenetic activation (PA), and total cells number of cloned embryos were evaluated. The results were analysed by chi-squared and Kruskal-Wallis test with a P-value 0.05) between control and PM, both for cleavage (78.2% and 76.9%) and blastocyst (35.5% and 29.3%) rates. After SCNT, cleavage rate was also similar (P > 0.05) between control and PM (66% and 51.9%) however, blastocyst rate was lower (P < 0.05) in the PM group than in the control group (7.4% and 30.2%). After 6 h of PM with 100 nM of NPPC, approximately 84.9% of the oocytes remained at GV. No difference was found between control and PM in cleavage (69.2% and 76.1%) and blastocyst rates (37,4% and 35%) after IVP. Similarly, no differences between PM and control groups were observed for cleavage (69.2% and 68.4%) and blastocyst (24.4% and 21.5%) rates. SCNT and PA embryos from control or PM oocytes had similar total cell number. It can be concluded that PM for 6 h with 100 nM NPPC is feasible for cloned embryo production without affecting embryo outcome.
