본 연구에서는 한우 태아의 시기별로 35일령, 50일령, 70일령 및 90일령의 fetal fibroblast cell line을 생산하였고, bovine-specific primer와 Y chromosome-specific primer를 이용하여 PCR에 의해 성을 판별하여 각각 암수 2 line의 한우 fetal fibroblast cell line을 확립하였다. 이들 cell line을 계대배양하여 passage number가 10 이상에서 염색체 분석을 실시하였는데 모두에서 80%이상의 세포가 60개의 정상 염색체수의 나타내어 계대배양이 karyotype에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. Serum starvation과 confluent 배양 방법을 이용하여 Go 상태로 유도되었는지 확인하기 위해 PCNA antibody를 이용하여 Western blotting 분석을 실시하였는데 PCNA 발현이 현저히 감소되는 것을 확인할 수 있었고, 다시 정상 medium으로 환원시켰을 때 세포분열이 재개되어 Go상태로 유도되었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 serum stravation 방법이 conflent한 배양방법보다 PCNA 발현양이 적은 것으로 나타나 좀더 효율적인 Go 상태 세포 주기 조절방법으로 판명되었다.

The success of embryo cloning depends on numerous factors; interaction between recipient ooplasm and donor nucleus, nuclear reprogramming, oocyte activation, and donor cell cycle and type. In this study, the cell cycle and apoptosis of bovine fetal fibroblast as a donor cell for embryo cloning were evaluated following different activation treatments. (omitted)

The FAT-1 protein is an n-3 fatty acid desaturase, which can recognize a range of 18- and 20-carbon n-6 substrates and transform n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) into n-3 PUFAs while n-3 PUFAs have beneficial effect on human health. Fat1 gene is the coding sequence from Caenorhabditis elegans which might play an important role on lipometabolism. To reveal the function of fat1 gene in bovine fetal fibroblast cells and gain the best cell nuclear donor for transgenic bovines, the codon of fat1 sequence was optimized based on the codon usage frequency preference of bovine muscle protein, and directionally cloned into the eukaryotic expression vector pEF-GFP. After identifying by restrictive enzyme digests with AatII/XbaI and sequencing, the fusion plasmid pEF-GFP-fat1 was identified successfully. The pEF-GFP-fat1 vector was transfected into bovine fetal fibroblast cells mediated by Lipofectamine2000$^{TM}$. The positive bovine fetal fibroblast cells were selected by G418 and detected by RT-PCR. The results showed that a 1,234 bp transcription was amplified by reverse transcription PCR and the positive transgenic fat1 cell line was successfully established. Then the expression level of fat1 gene in positive cells was detected using quantitative PCR, and the catalysis efficiency was detected by gas chromatography. The results demonstrated that the catalysis efficiency of fat1 was significantly high, which can improve the total PUFAs rich in EPA, DHA and DPA. Construction and expression of pEF-GFP-fat1 vector should be helpful for further understanding the mechanism of regulation of fat1 in vitro. It could also be the first step in the production of fat1 transgenic cattle.

The development potential of bovine somatic cells was evaluated using nuclear transfer. A single donor cell derived from fetus of HanWoo(Korean Native Cattle) was selected and deposited into perivitelline space of each enucleated oocyte before electrical fusion and activation. Nuclei of donor cells starved for 7 days (37%) tended to support the development of reconstitute embryo the blastocyst stage better than those of donor cells starved 3, 14 and 30 days. The cleavage rate was significantly lower(P<0.05) in reconstitute embryos derived from large size donor cells(51.2%), than those from small medium size donor cells(76.6 and 73.5, respectively). The developmental rate to blastocyst of reconstructed embryos from medium size donor cells was higher than those from small and medium size donor cells. This study demonstrates that an appropriate culture period for induction into quiescent stage and the size of donor cells effect on the efficiency of nuclear transfer using cultured bovine cells.

Interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT) is a valuable tool for studying the interactions between an oocyte and somatic nucleus. The object of this study was to investigate the developmental competence of in vitro-matured porcine oocytes after transfer of the somatic cell nuclei of 2 different species (goat and rabbit). Porcine cumulus oocytes were obtained from the follicles of ovaries and matured in TCM-199. The reconstructed embryos were electrically fused with 2 DC pulses of 1.1kV/cm for $30{\mu}s$ 0.3M mannitol medium. The activated cloned embryos were cultured in porcine zygote medium-3 (PZM-3), mSOF or RDH medium for 7 days. The blastocyst formation rate of the embryos reconstructed from goat or rabbit fetal fibroblasts was significantly lower than that of the embryos reconstructed from porcine fetal fibroblast cells. However, a significantly higher number of embryos reconstructed from goat or rabbit fetal fibroblasts cultured in mSOF or RDH, respectively, developed to the morular stage than those cultured in PZM-3. These results suggest that goat and bovine fetal fibroblasts were less efficacious than porcine-porcine cloned embryos and that culture condition could be an important factor in iSCNT. The lower developmental potential of goat-porcine and porcine-bovine cloned embryos may be due to incompatibility between the porcine oocyte cytoplasm and goat and bovine somatic nuclei.

Interspecies nuclear transfer has been interested to determine ability of oocyte cytoplasm to support reprogramming of somatic cell nuclei of different species. In this study, we investigated developmental ability and mRNA expression patterns of developmentally important genes in bovine reconstructed embryos using a mouse fibroblast cell nucleus. While 20% nuclear transferred embryos with bovine fibroblast developed to morulae/blastocysts, a few(2-5%) nuclear transferred bovine embryos with mouse fibroblast developed to morula. (omitted)

The present study was performed to evaluate the best electric fusion condition in nuclear transfer, Korean Native Cattle fibroblasts were used as nucleic donors. Oocytes from slaughterhouse were matured in vitro for 22 h and enucleated. Each individual cells were transferred into enucleated ocytes and reconstructed embryo were placed into the fusion chamber. In experiment 1, pulse were performed by altering pulse duration at 1. 75kv/cm, 1 time. When pulse duration is 30$mutextrm{s}$, fusion and development rates is higher than other conditions. In experiment 2, the effect of different pulse number were studied at the pulse duration 30$mutextrm{s}$ and the same pulse intensity. When pulse number was one, fusion rates were higher than other conditions. The fused embryos were moved to culture medium and assessed their development to blastocyst. These results showed that best fusion condition was 30$mutextrm{s}$ and one time. And the fibroblasts derived from Han Woo can be reprogrammed by nuclear transplantation and develop subsequently in vitro.

This work was undertaken in order to study the developmental competence of nuclear transfer cat embryo with fetal fibroblast and adult skin fibroblast as donor nuclei. Oocytes wererecovered by mincing the ovaries in Hepes-buffered TCM199 and selected the cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) with compact cumulus cell mass and dark. Homogenous ooplasm were cultured for maturation in TCM199 + 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) for 12 hours and used as a source of recipient cytoplast for exogenous somatic nuclei. In Experiment 1, we evaluated the effect donor cell types on the reconstruction and development of cloned embryos. Fusion, first cleavage and blastocyst developmental rate was not different between fetal fibroblast and adult skin cell (71.2 vs. 66.8; 71.0 vs. 57.6; 4.0 vs. 6.1 %, P<0.05). In Experiment 2, cloned embryos were surgically transferred into the oviducts of recipient queens. One of seven recipient queens was delivered naturally 2healthy cloned cats and 1 stillborn from fetal fibroblast cell of male origin after 65 days embryo transfer. One of three recipient queens was delivered naturally 1 healthy cloned cat from adult skin cell of female after 65 days embryo transfer. The cloned cats showed genotypes identical to the donor cell lines, indicating that adult somatic cells can be used for feline cloning.

The purpose of this study was to development of transgenic cow using the nuclear transfer. To secrete hFSH in urea, the vector was constructed with UPII promoter. The fetal fibroblast cells (KbFF) were constructed from pregnant day 45 male fetus. The hFSH genes were cotransfected with pcDNA3 (neo) vector to KbFF cells by electroporation. (omitted)
