본 연구는 재래 산양의 체세포 핵이식에 의하여 생산한 복제 산양(진순이)의 조직으로부터 공여 핵을 배양하여 다시 핵이식을 실시하여 재복제에 따른 융합율과 분할율, 이식 후의 수태율 등을 조사하여 재복제 가능성 여부를 검토하기 위하여 실시하였다. 공여 세포는 귀 유래 섬유아세포를 분리 배양하여 사용하였으며, 체내 성숙 난자는 성숙한 미경산 재래 산양에 과배란을 유기하여 외과적인 방법으로 난관 관류를 통해 회수하여 핵이식을 실시하였다. 핵이식란의 융합은 전기 자극 방법으로 실시되었으며, 융합이 완료된 핵이식란의 활성화 처리는 핵이식 3시간 후에 Ionomycin과 6-DMAP를 병용 처리하여 실시하였다. 복제 수정란의 체외 배양은 0.8% BSA가 첨가된 mSOF 배양액으로 $2{\sim}4$ 세포기까지 체외 배양을 실시한 다음 수란 산양의 난관에 외과적으로 이식하였다. 임신 진단은 발정일로 부터 제 30일과 60일째에 초음파 임신 진단기로 임신 진단을 실시하고, Progesterone농도는 이식 후 21일째와 63일째의 혈액을 채취하여 RIA 방법으로 검사하였다. 체세포 핵이식에 의한 재복제란(2nd)을 전기 자극에 의한 융합을 1회 실시하였을 때 융합율은 65.9%로서 복재란(1st)의융합을 51.0%보다 유의적(p<0.05)으로 높았으며, 2회 전기자극을 실시하였을 때는 각각 77.4 및 63.9%로서 차이가 없었으나, 3회 재복제란 융합율도 87.5%로서 복제란의 70.1%와 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 재복제 융합란의 분할율은 56.0%로j 복제 융합란의 77.7%보다 낮았다. 재복제란을 수란 산양에 이식을 실시하여 임신 제21일과 63일째 임신 진단을 실시하였을 때 수태율을 수란 산양의 발정유기 방법에 따른 수태율에 있어서 재복제란의 21일째 수태율은 39.3%로서 복제란의 17.4%보다 높았으며, 63일째는 각각 14.3 및 13.0%로서 복제 회수에 따른 수태율의 차이는 없었다. 수란 산양의 발정 유기 방법에 있어서 제 21일째에 자연발정이 발현된 수란 산양의 수태율은 45.4%로서 인위적으로 발정 동기화를 유도한 수란 산양의 35.3%보다 높았다. 제 63일째는 각각 18.2 및 11.8%로서 차이가 없었다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때 재래 산양의 체세포 핵이식에 의한 복제효율에 있어서는 복재와 재복제간에 차이가 없었으며, 수란산양의 발정 동기화 방법에 따른 수태율에 있어서도 차이가 없었다. 그러나 앞으로 재래 산양의 복제 효율 개선을 위해서는 양질 난자의 다량 확보, 산양 수정란의 체외 배양 체계 확립, 이식 기법의 개발 등에 관한 후속 연구가 이루어져야 할 것으로 생각된다.

1. About fifty thousand of cattle embryos were transferred and 16000 ET-calves were born in 1999. Eighty percents of embryos were collected from Japanese Black beef donors and transferred to dairy Holstein heifers and cows. Since 1985, we have achieved in bovine in vitro fertilization using immature oocytes collected from ovaries of slaughterhouse. Now over 8000 embryos fertilized by Japanese Black bull, as Kitaguni 7~8 or Mitsufuku, famousbulls as high marbling score of progeny tests were sold to dairy farmers and transferred to their dairy cattle every year. 2. Embryo splitting for identical twins is demonstrated an useful tool to supply a bull for semen collection and a steer for beef performance test. According to the data of Dr. Hashiyada(2001), 296 pairs of split-half embryos were transferred to recipients and 98 gave births of 112 calves (23 pairs of identical twins and 66 singletons). 3. A blastomere-nuclear-transferred cloned calf was born in 1990 by a joint research with Drs. Tsunoda, National Institute of Animal Industry (NIAI) and Ushijima, Chiba Prefectural Farm Animal Center. The fruits of this technology were applied to the production of a calf from a cell of long-term-cultured inner cell mass (1988, Itoh et al, ZEN-NOH Central Research Institute for Feed and Livestock) and a cloned calf from three-successive-cloning (1997, Tsunoda et al.). According to the survey of MAFF of Japan, over 500 calves were born until this year and a glaf of them were already brought to the market for beef. 4. After the report of "Dolly", in February 1997, the first somatic cell clone female calves were born in July 1998 as the fruits of the joint research organized by Dr. Tsunoda in Kinki University (Kato et al, 2000). The male calves were born in August and September 1998 by the collaboration with NIAI and Kagoshima Prefecture. Then 244 calves, four pigs and a kid of goat were now born in 36 institutes of Japan. 5. Somatic cell cloning in farm animal production will bring us as effective reproductive method of elite-dairy- cows, super-cows and excellent bulls. The effect of making copy farm animal is also related to the reservation of genetic resources and re-creation of a male bull from a castrated steer of excellent marbling beef. Cloning of genetically modified animals is most promising to making pig organs transplant to people and providing protein drugs in milk of pig, goat and cattle. 6. Farm animal cloning is one of the most dreamful technologies of 21th century. It is necessary to develop this technology more efficient and stable as realistic technology of the farm animal production. We are making researches related to the best condition of donor cells for high productivity of cloning, genetic analysis of cloned animals, growth and performance abilities of clone cattle and pathological and genetical analysis of high rates of abortion and stillbirth of clone calves (about 30% of periparutum mortality). 7. It is requested in the report of Ministry of Health, labor and Welfare to make clear that carbon-copy cattle(somatic cell clone cattle) are safe and heathy for a commercial market since the somatic cell cloning is a completely new technology. Fattened beef steers (well-proved normal growth) and milking cows(shown a good fertility) are now provided for the assessment of food safety.

Human follicle-stimulating hormone (hFSH) is a pituitary glycoprotein that regulates follicular development and ovulation. Clinically, hFSH has been used to induce follicular growth in infertile women. The hormone is composed of heterodimers, including a common ${\alpha}$ subunit among the gonadotropin family and a hormone-specific ${\beta}$ subunit. Since assembly of the heterodimer is a rate-limiting step in the production of functional hFSH, transgenic clone cows carrying a single-chain hFSH transgene may efficiently produce functional hormone. Genes encoding the ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$ subunits of hFSH were linked using the C-terminal peptide sequence from the ${\beta}$ subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin. Bovine fetal fibroblasts were transfected with the gene construct, including the goat ${\beta}$-casein promoter and a single-chain hFSH coding sequence. Transfected fibroblasts were transferred into enucleated oocytes, and individual nuclear transfer (NT) embryos developed to the blastocyst stage were analyzed for the transgene by polymerase chain reaction. Seventy eight blastocysts (30.8%) were developed from 259 reconstructed embryos. Among these blastocysts, the hFSH gene was detected in 70.8% (34/48) of the embryos. Subsequent transfer of hFSH-transgenic clone embryos to 31 recipients results in 11 (35.5%) early pregnancies. However, all fetuses were lost before reaching day 180 of gestation. The results from this study demonstrated that bovine NT embryos carrying single-chain hFSH could be produced, and further extensive studies in which NT embryos are transferred to more recipients may give rise to single chain hFSH-transgenic cows for biomedical applications.
