Abstract

This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of three different porcine IVM media, TCM-199, mSOF and NCSU-23 on early development of porcine spontaneous parthenogenotes. Spontaneous parthenogenotes were induced by a prolonged culture of porcine oocytes in each medium. In Experiment 1, oocytes derived from gilts were matured in three IVM media and maturation of oocytes was evaluated by the status of chromatin configuration. Oocytes matured in mSOF, NCSU-23 and TCM-199 showed no significant difference (P>0.05) in maturation. Maturation rates at 48h after IVM were 83.1$\pm$2% (mSOF), 78.0$\pm$3% (NCSU-23) and 83.5$\pm$2% (mSOF), 78.0$\pm$3% (NCSU-23) and 83.5$\pm$2% (TCM-199). In Experiment 2, pronucleus formation and development to 6~8 cell stage of pig oocytes activated spontaneously. Pronucleus formation, cleavage rate and development to 6~8 cell embryos of porcine spontaneous parthenogenotes were assessed at 55~58 h, 96 h and 168h after IVM, respectively. Pronucleus formation (5.4$\pm$2% and 3.7 $\pm$ 1% vs 1.7 $\pm$ 3%) and development to the 6$\pm$8 cell (3.2$\pm$3% and 4.0$\pm$1% vs 1.4$\pm$3%) was significantly (P<0.05) higher in mSOF or NCSU-23 than TCM-199. In conclusion, the present study showed that oocytes matured in mSOF and NCSU-23 were spontaneously activated with higher frequency.

본 연구에서는 TCM-199, mSOF, NCSU-23 세 종류의 배지의 자연 단위 발생 유도로 형성된 돼지 배아의 초기 발육에 대한 효과를 조사하였다. 실험 1에서는 세 종류의 배지에서 체외 성숙된 도축장 유래 돼지 난자의 성숙율을 성숙 48 시간째 핵상 관찰로 조사하였다. 각 배지에서의 핵 성숙율은 mSOF군에서 83.1$\pm$2%, NCSU-23 군에서 78.0$\pm$3%, TCM-199군에서 83.5$\pm$2%로 세 배지의 난자 성숙율에 대한 유의적 차이는 없었다(P(0.05). 실험 2에서는 돼지 난자의 전핵 형성률, 단위 발생으로 형성된 배아의 분할율, 6-8세포기까지의 발육율 등이 각각 체외 성숙 55-58 시간, 96시간 그리고 168 시간 후에 관찰되었다. 전핵 형성율 (5.4$\pm$2 % in mSOF and 3.7$\pm$1% in NCSU-23 vs 1.7$\pm$3% in TCM-199) 그리고 6-8cell까지의 발육율은 (3.2$\pm$3% in mSOF and 4.0$\pm$1% in NCSU-23 vs 1.4$\pm$3% in TCM-199) mSOF군과 NCSU-23군에서 유의적으로 높았다(P<0.05). 이상의 결과를 볼 때 mSOF 배지와 NCSU-23 배지에서 장시간 배양에 의한 난자의 단위발생 유도율이 유의적으로 높았다.
