  • In-vitro culture has provided new inforrnation on mechanisms of oocytes rnaturation and results obtained in vitro have led to new questions. In porcine, follicular and oocyte size have the crucial importance for the oocytes maturation. The addition of hormones to the culture medium was found to accelerate and facilitate meiotic maturation. The presence of some factors in serum trigger the resumption of meiosis and support the maturation of oocytes in vitro. The maturation rate of porcine oocytes was also increased by supplementation of porcine follicular fluid to the culture medium. The growth factors can stimulate nuclear maturation and enhances cytoplasnic maturation of oocytes by interaction with gonadotropins. The maturation-promoting factor brings about GVBD and the subsequent maturational events in oocytes. However, cAMP can block the spontaneous meiotic maturation of oocytes in culture. The understanding of these influences is a prerequisite to enhancing in vitro maturation of porcine oocytes.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the collection time, co-culture and sperm penetration of canine oocytes on in vitro maturation and fertilization. The oocytes were cultured in TCM-199 media containing hormonal supplements (10% FCS, 10 IU/ml HCG, 10 IU/ml PMSG) at 5% $CO_2$, 95% air, $38^{\circ}C$. The in vitro maturation rate to MII stage of in vitro oocytes recovered from ovaries that collected at follicular, luteal and inactive phases of the reproductive phase for 44~72 hrs were 19.2%, 12.2%, and 6.0%, respectively. Follicular phases oocytes had a significantly higher in vitro maturation rate than oocytes collected at luteal and anestrus stage (p<0.05). The in vitro maturation rates to the MII stage of canine oocytes after 48 hrs of culture with glutathione, pyruvate, or glutathione + pyruvate were 12.5%, 10.7%, and 17.5%, respectively. This was higher than that in both alone or the combination of the two compared to the control group (19.0%). The sperm penetration rates of in vitro matured oocytes by fresh and frozen semen were 29/80 (36.3%) and 18/80 (22.5%), respectively. Although there are limited reports about canine oocytes co-culture and in vitro fertilization, our results on in vitro maturation is comparable to the results from other researches.

  • The aim of this study was to investigate whether addition of porcine epididymal fluid (pEF) into culture medium during in vitro maturation influences the nuclear maturation of porcine germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes. Porcine cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) from follicles were cultured in tissue culture medium 199 (TCM 199) containing pEF. After 48hr of culture, oocytes were examined for evidence of GV breakdown, metaphase I, anaphase-telophase I, and metaphase II. The proportion of oocytes reaching at metaphase II (M II) stage was significantly (p<0.05) increased in oocytes cultured in the media supplemented with 10% pEF during in vitro maturation than in those without pEF regardless of cumulus presence or absence (54.6% vs 22.5%, 51.7% vs 24.2%). The supplementation of pEF during maturation of oocyte enhanced oocytes maturation in a dose-dependent manner in vitro. Also significant differences (p<0.05) in the percentage of MII oocytes were observed according to exposure period in pEF. Present study suggests that pEF contains a enhancing component(s) for nuclear maturation of porcine immature oocytes in vitro.

  • The objective of this study was to develop an effective in vitro production system capable of obtaining more porcine embryos from immature oocytes. These experiments were thus conducted to examine the effect of oocytes type and maturation time on the in vitro maturation(IVM) and fertilization(IVF) of oocytes and the in vitro development (IVD)of IVF embryos. 1. The degree of oocyte maturation based on cumulus expansion index(GEI) did not differ for A- and B-typed oocytes but the index of oocyte type C was lower(P<0.05) than that of other oocyte types. 2. When the oocytes of type A and B were matured for 36, 42 and 48hrs, the GEl was not different between the 36- and 42-h maturation but the GEl after 48hrs was greatly lower(P<0.05) than that of other maturation times. 3. The highest cleavage rate(48.6%) of IVF oocytes was obtained from A typed oocytes and 42-h maturation but the developmental potential based on cleavage index was the highest when B-typed oocytes were matured for 42hrs.

  • This experiment was carried out to investigate in vitro maturation rate of pig follicular oocytes cultured from 30 to 48hr in TCM 199 supplemented with gonadotropins(FSH, LH) and estradiol-17$\beta$ and in vitro fertilization with ejaculated sperm preincubated in BO medium containing 2mM caffein and development of IVF oocytes. The results obtained in this experiments were as follows ; 1. In addition of hormones, in vitro maturation rate of follicular oocyte increased gradually from 36hr and 74.47% at 48hr in addition of hormones, but there was no differences among in vitro maturation rates after 36hr of culture. 2. Penetration rate of pig oocytes matured in FSH+LH+E2 and FSH+E2 was 71.8%, 71.0% and significantly increased by the addition of hormones. 3. Percentage of developed oocytes was 44.4% for oocytes matured in FSH+LH+E2-added medium and 48.7% for oocytes matured in FSH+E2-added medium, respectively. 4. Two to 16 cells stage embryos were obtained only when pig oocytes matuerd in vitro in hormones-added medium and 72hr after IVF. 5. From present results, it is concluded that gonadotropins and estradiol17$\beta$ can enhance in vitro fertilization and subsequent development as well as in vitro maturation pig follicular oocytes.

  • In vitro maturation of denuded porcine immature oocytes can be enhanced by co-incubation with spermatozoa even before fertilization. This study was to determine whether the addition of spermatozoa into the culture medium could influence the nuclear maturation of porcine cumulus-enclosed germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes. Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) were collected from follicles of 3- to 5-mm diameter. Porcine COCs were cultured in tissue culture medium containing spermatozoa. After 48 h culture, oocytes were examined for evidence of GV breakdown, metaphase I, anaphase-telophase I, and metaphase II. The proportion of oocytes reaching at metaphase II was significantly (P < 0.05) increased in the oocytes cultured in media containing spermatozoa compared to those in media without spermatozoa (52.3% vs 12.5%). No difference in the percentage of metaphase II was observed among the different periods of spermatozoa exposure and among the spermatozoa from different species. The proportion of oocytes reaching metaphase II was significantly different between high and low concentrations of spermatozoa. The present study suggests that manunalian spermatozoa contain a substance(s) that improves nuclear in vitro maturation of porcine cumulus-enclosed GV oocytes. Enhancing effect of spermatozoa for in vitro maturation of oocytes is a highly dose-dependent.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the effect of hormones on in vitro maturation of porcine follicular oocytes. The results obtained were as follows : 1. The maturation rates of oocytes cultured in medium containing FSH 1, 10, 50 and 100$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml were 44.6, 58.5, 42.6 and 37.9%, respectively. And those were no difference to maturation rates among the medium containing FSH. However, the maturation rate(13.7%) of oocytes cultured without FSH was significantly(P<0.05) lower than those of oocytes cultured with FSH. 2. The maturation rates of oocytes cultured in medium containing hCG 0, 1, 10, 50 and 100IU/ml were 12.2, 11.9, 17.9, 21.9 and 45.6%, respectively. The maturation rate of oocytes cultured with 100IU/ml hCG was significantly(P<0.05) higher than those of oocytes cultured with 0~50IU/ml hCG concentrations. 3. The maturation rates of oocytes cultured in medium containing E2 0, 1, 10, 50 and 100$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml were 13.7, 10.5, 14.9, 11.4 and 5.9%, respectively. There were no differences to maturation rates among the E2 concentrations. 4. The FSH+hCG treatment was the highest maturation rate in medium containing different combination of FSH, hCG and E2.

  • The effect of the presence or absence of corpus luteum in the ovaries of slaughtered buffaloes was studied for the oocytes recovery and their subsequent maturation and fertilization in vitro. On an average, 0.41 and 0.67 oocytes per ovary were recovered from ovaries with and without corpus luteum, respectively. Immature oocytes were matured in TCM-199 medium. Significant difference was observed in maturation rate between good (74%) and fair (37%) oocytes. However, there was no significant difference in cleavage rate between the two types. The results of this study show that although the presence of corpus luteum in the ovary at the time of recovery significantly affected availability of total oocytes and in-vitro maturation, but fertilization and cleavage remained unaffected under in vitro conditions.

  • In canine, oocytes are ovulated at the GV (germinal vesicle) stage and they have to fulfill maturation phase before reaching metaphase II stage. The efficiency of in vitro maturation is still very low. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of in vitro maturation on nuclear changes of immature canine oocytes recovered from different reproductive stages ovaries and different culture conditions. The oocytes were cultured in TCM-199 with supplement at 5% $CO_2$ and $38.5^{\circ}C$ for 72 h. The nuclear maturation of canine oocytes was evaluated with Hoechst 33342 stain under fluorescence microscope (Fig. 1). The results of this study detected differences in in vitro maturation rate between oocytes recovered from follicle status and non-follicle status ovaries. However, these differences were not significant as indicated in Table 1 and Fig. 2. In regard to the effect of culture condition with supplements, we did not found significant differences compared with control group (Table 2, Table 3). One of the reasons for this data could be the conditions that ovaries were exposed during slaughtering process or the long distant transportation of the ovaries. Although these data have not shown clearly significant differences results compared with control, furthermore the different reproductive status ovaries was beneficial for maturation of oocytes in vitro and can be a basic part of knowledge to improve in vitro maturation of canine oocytes.

  • In the present study, effects of concentration of cryoprotectant solutions on the nuclear maturation of vitrifiedthawed bovine oocytes were examined. Also, the developmental capacity of vitrified-thawed immature oocytes following ICSI was investigated. Oocytes were cultured in TCM-199 medium supplemented with 5% FBS at $38^{\circ}$C in 5% $CO_2$ and air. The in vitro maturation rate of vitrified oocytes was 24.5 ${\pm}$ 4.2%. The in vitro maturation rate of vitrified oocytes was lower than that of the control (72.0 ${\pm}$ 3.5%, p<0.05). The in vitro maturation rate of vitrified${\sim}$thawed oocytes incubated in TCM-199 medium supplemented with 1.0${\sim}$5.0 ug CB were 26.7 ${\pm}$ 3.2%, 35.7 ${\pm}$ 3.2%, 54.0 ${\pm}$ 3.0%, 42.5 ${\pm}$ 3.6%, respectively. The in vitro maturation rate (57.0 ${\pm}$ 3.0%) of the vitrified-thawed oocytes treated with 3.0 ${\mu}$g CB for 20 min was the highest of all vitrification groups, although the maturation rate were significantly (p<0.05) lower than those of fresh oocytes. The in vitro maturation rates of the vitrified-thawed (with EDS and EDT) oocytes were 53.8 ${\pm}$ 3.4%, 51.1 ${\pm}$ 3.5%, respectively. This results were lower than the control group (72.0 ${\pm}$ 3.0%). The in vitro developmental rates of the vitrified-thawed oocytes following ICSI were 28.6 ${\pm}$ 4.5%, 25.6 ${\pm}$ 4.3%, respectively. This results were lower than the control group (40.0 ${\pm}$ 4.0%).
