본 연구는 한우 체외수정란에 외래 유전자를 미세현미 주입한 후 체외 배발달을 조사하였다. DNA 미세주입은 체외수정 18~20시간 후에 DNA를 미세주입하였으며 체외 배발달율은 7일간 배양 후 조사하였다. 미세현미 주입 후 난할율은 36.3%로 대조구의 난할율 66.4% 보다 유의적으로 낮았으며(p<0.05) DNA가 주입된 수정란 중 상실배와 배반포배까지 발달율은 각각 5.6%와 1.9%로 대조구의 20.5%와 12.8%에 비하여 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다. 체외발달 배양액 내 L-ascorbic acid와 $\alpha$-tocopherol 첨가 배양시 상실배와 배반포배 발달율이 대조구에 비하여 유의적으로 높게 나타났다.(p<0.05) 따라서 미세현미 주입된 수정란의 체외 배발달 배양액에 항산화제의 첨가는 높은 체외 배발달율을 얻을 수 있으며 또한 체외성숙과, 체외 수정된 한우수정란을 이용하여 형질전환 한우 생산이 가능하리라 사료된다.

본 연구는 한우 체외수정란의 정확한 성판별을 위한 PCR의 적정조건을 검토하였고, Y 염색체 특이적 DNA primer(BOV97M : 141bp)와 소 특이적 DNA primer(216bp)를 이용한 2단계 PCR 방법으로 체외수정란의 발육속도에 따른 성판별율과 성비를 검토하였다. PCR 기법을 이용한 한우 체외수정란의 성판별은 Y 염색체 특이적 DNA primer와 소 특이적 DNA primer로 정확히 성을 판별할 수 있었으며, 웅성 수정란의 경우 141bp와 216bp에서 band가 나타났고, 자성 수정란의 경우 216bp에서 band가 나타났다. 한우 체외수정란의 경우 성판별 정확도를 높이기 위하여 투명대의 제거가 필요하며, 수정란의 DNA 추출방법에 따른 Y 염색체 특이적 band의 출현율은 Proteinase K와 반복 동결융해방법이 각각 45.2 및 53.3%로 나타났다. DNA의 양에 따른 성판별율은 zona free인 경우는 2$\mu$1와 10$\mu$1에서 각각 97.2%와 92.2% 였으며, zona intact의 경우는 12$\mu$1와 13$\mu$1에서는 각각 91.5%와 93.6%로서 zona free 수정란의 경우 2$\mu$1, zona intact의 경우 13$\mu$1의 DNA 양으로 성판별이 가능하였다. 한편, PCR 기법에 의한 한우 체외수정란의 성판별율은 96.0%였으며, 정확히 성판별을 할수 없는 비율은 4.0%였다. 성판별 수정란의 자성과 웅성의 비율은 46.3%와 49.7%로서 성비는 1.1:1이였으며, 발육단계간 자웅성비는 커다란 차이가 인정되지 않았으며, 발육단계가 진행될수록 성판별 정확도가 증가하였다.

This study was to examine whether the vitrified, one-step diluted and direct transferred Hanwoo IVM/IVF/IVC blastocysts can be successfully survived in vivo and they were succeeded into the live birth. For vitrification, blastocysts were serially exposed in glycerol (G) or/and ethylene glycol (EG) mixtures [10% (v/v) G for 5 min, 10% G plus 20% EG (v/v) for 5 min, and 25% G plus 25% EG (v/v) for 30 sect] which is diluted in 10% FBS added D-PBS. Thawing of straw was carried out in air for 10 sec and then in water bath of $25^{\circ}C$ for 20 sec. One-step dilution within the straw was done in water bath of $25^{\circ}C$ for 1 min. Vitrified and one-step diluted embryos were directly transferred into 36 (natural or hormone induced synchronized) recipient cows in 6 areas of Kyungsang Buk-Do. Pregnancies were confirmed at first when recipient cows did not return to the subsequent estrus cycle, and later by manual palpation per rectum on day 45, 90 and then living calves were derived into parturition. Overall pregnancy was 33.3%(12/36), However, higher pregnancy was obtained when the recipients exhibited estrus one day earlier than the age of transferred embryos (53.3 vs 25.0-27.3%), irrespective of synchronization methods. Also, parous recipients became pregnant higher than nulliparous heifers, And, there were not different in pregnancy rates by the aspect of corpus luteum (CL) quality of recipients (good, 29.4; fair, 37.5; poor, 33.3%). One hundred eight of frozen-thawed Hanwoo blastocysts were directly transferred into 36 recipient cows. In 12 of pregnant cows, 3 cows were aborted and 9 cows were calved [single, 66.7% (6/9): twin, 33.3% (3/9)]. Total embryo implantation rate was 11.1% (12/108). However, 9 Hanwoo calves were lived. Therefore, these results demonstrate that direct transfer technique of vitrified and one-step diluted bovine blastocysts can be applied easily and effectively with the higher pregnancy rate on field trial without the equipment and embryological skills.

본 실험은 체외 생산된 한우 배반포기배의 생존능이 초자화동결 융해 후에도 유지될 수 있는지를 조사하고자 실시하였다. 한우 배반포기배는 2 단계로 초자화동결되었는데, EG20에 3분간 평형 그리고 EFS40에 노출한 후 L$N_2$에 초자화되기까지 30~45 초간 처리하였다. 체외에서의 생존능은 융해 후 24시간째의 re-expanded 와 48시간째의 hatched 발달율로 조사하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 12번의 반복실험으로부터 체외 수정 후 체외 배양 7일째에 52.5% 의 배반포기배가 생산되었다. 배의 생존에 동결액이 미치는 영향을 조사하였던 바, 대조군 (100.0, 87.0%) 과 비교하였을 때 동결액 노출군 (100.0, 73.8%) 에서 유의한 독성은 확인되지 않았다. 그러나, 배반포기배가 초자화동결되었을 때, 높은 생존능(86.2, 55.4%) 은 확인되었지만 그 결과는 노출군과 대조군에 비교하여 볼 때 유의하게 낮은 것이었다.(p＜0.05). 배 발달단계와 배양날짜가 초자화동결된 난자의 생존에 미치는 영향을 조사하였던 바, 배양날짜와 상관없이 빠르게 발달한 난자군에서 유의하게 높은 생존능이 있음을 알 수 있었다 (p＜ 0.05). 또한, 같은 발달단계라 하더라도, 배양 7일째 배의 (re-expanded: 75.0~87.5%, hatched: 21.4~66.7%) 생존능이 배양 8일째 배의 (re-expanded: 58.6~78.3%, hatched: 10.3~52.2%) 생존능보다 높다는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서, 이러한 결과에서 볼 때 체외에서 생산된 한우 배반포기배는 EFS40 동결액을 사용하는 간편 2 단계 초자화방법으로 성공적으로 동결되어질 수 있으며 특히 배양 7일과 8일째의 expanded 배반포기배와 early hatching 배반포기배에서 더욱 효과적으로 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The objective of this study was to produce calves by transfer of embryos derived from slaughter house(SHD) and ultrasound-guided ovum pick-up (OPU). At 60 hrs after injection of 400 mg FSH dissolved in 25% polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP) by single dose, ultrasound-guided follicular oocyte aspiration was ferformed. Day-7 and day-8 blastocysts produced by in vitro maturation (IVM), fertilization (IVF) and culture(IVC) of the oocytes derived from SHD and OPU were nonsurgically transferred into recipients. The results obtained were as follows. The cleavage rate and the development rate to blastocysts were not significantly (P<0.05) different between the oocytes obtained by SHD (72.9% vs. 34.1%) and OPU (75.9% vs. 38.4%). The oocyte recovery rate from the number of follicles by ultrasound-guided aspiration were not significantly (P<0.05) different between Holstein (61.7%) and Hanwoo (60.1%), but the rate of oocytes useful for IVF was significantly (P<0.05) higher in Hanwoo (69.3%) than Holstein (59.6%). The cleavage rate and the development rate to blastocysts was not significantly (P<0.05) different between Holstein (74.9% vs. 39.2%) and recipients on day 8 of estrus cycle resulted in 13 pregnancies (34.2%). One of them was sacrificed during gestation period due to mastitis and another was aborted spontaneous. The resulting 14 calves were morphologically normal at birth. Seventy eight fresh OPU-IVF embryos were transferred into 21 recipients on day 8 of estrus cycles, resulting in pregnancy of 12 recipients (41.4%). Two of them were sacrificed during gestation period due to mastitis and the other two were aborted. Nevertheless, the 11 OPU-calves have been born normally.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of hormones, protein sources and anti-oxidants on in vitro maturation (IVM) and in vitro fertilization(IVF) of bovine follicular oocytes. The rates of Holstein follicular oocytes classified as grade A and B(50.2% and 33.2%) were higher than those of Hanwoo cattle(40.3% and 32.0%, P<0.05). The cumulus cell expansion rates of oocytes cultured in TCM-199 and Ham's F-10 medium supplemented with 10% FCS and hormones were higher (81.9~87.6%) than those of non-treated groups (74.5~81.7%). The fertilization rates of oocytes cultured in TCM-199 and Ham's F-10 medim supplemented with 10% FCS, 1% BSA and 10% bFF was 53.8~55.0%, 51.4~52.6%, and 47.0~50.0%, respectively. The polyspermy rates was 13.6~14.2%, 10.0~11.1%, and 10.0%, respectively. When the oocytes were cultured in TCM-199 and Ham's F-10 medium with 50${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ $\alpha$-tocopherol, the fertilization rates was 62.0 and 60.2%, respectively. In the maturation medium added of 100${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ cysteamine, the fertilization rates was 64.7 and 66.7%, respectively. The fertilization and polyspermy rates of treated groups were higher than those of non-treated group. The results show that hormones, protein sources and anti-oxidants can provide a benefit for in vitro maturation and fertilization of bovine follicular oocytes.

These studies were conducted to evaluate developmental competence of follicular oocyte collected from the ovaries of Hanwoo cows with the high offspring meat quality (1++ and 1+ grade). Cumulus oocyte complexes from individual cows were matured, fertilized and cultured using protocols of in-vitro maturation (IVM), invitro fertilization (IVF) and in-vitro culture (IVC). The rates of blastocyst development from Hanwoo cows with the offspring meat quality grades of 1++ and 1+ were 18.6 and 21.2%, respectively. The rates of blastocyst development were 26.3, 20.7, 20.7, 17.2 and 31.2% from Hanwoo cows with the meat quality grades of 1++, 1+, 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Fiftyseven transferable embryos were recovered from 11 Hanwoo donor cows (5.2/head) with the high offspring meat quality grades of 1++ and 1+ in vivo, and the pregnancy rate after embryo transfer was 61.1%. In conclusion, these results suggest that in vitro embryo production from the ovaries of cows with the high meat quality grades using individual culture system can be used an efficient method for livestock improvement. In addition, for the successful industrialization of embryo transfer, conception rate should be improved.
