부화후 성장하는 꿩 송과샘의 미세구조적 발달을 구명하고자 1일령, 1, 2 및 6개월령을 희생시켜 광학 및 전자현미경을 이용하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 광학현미경적 관찰에서 꿩 송과샘의 실질은 피막에 의해 싸여 있고 여기에서 기시하는 결합조직에 의해 불완전한 소엽 (lobule)으로 구분되었다. 송과샘실질은 소엽상과 불완전한 여포살이었으며, 둥근 핵과 염색성이 옅은 송과샘세포와 약간 짙고 길쭉한 핵을 갖는 지주세포로 구성되어 있었다. 전자현미경적 관찰에서 송과샘실질에는 길쭉한 송과샘세포와 지주세포가 소엽의 중심부를 향해 배열되어 있었고 광학현미경에서 소엽의 중심부에는 매우 불규칙한 막성층판복합체이나 포상구조물이 출현하였다. 실질은 비교적 밝은 솔과 샘세포와 짙은 핵을 갖는 지주세포로 구성되어 있었다. 송과샘세포는 잔유성 광수용세포의 형태를 취하였는데, 그 첨단부위의 밝고 팽대된 세포질에는 세포소기관이 빈약하나 섬모, 약간의 유리리보솜과 사립체가 출현하였다. 첨단부위세포질과 핵위부위세포질 사이의 좁아진 경부는 지주세포와 연접복합체를 이루고 목부위세포질내에는 미세소관이 풍부하였다. 핵주위세포질은 풍부하고 다수의 사립체, 잘 발달된 골지장치, 풍부한 과립형질내세망 및 유리 리보솜 등을 함유하고 있었다. 또한 핵아래부위세포질에서 여포의 기저부위로 기저돌기를 내고 있었다. 송과샘세포의 핵아래부위 세포질 및 기저돌기에서 60∼90nm 크기의 치밀소포가 관찰된 것이 특이하였고 짙은 핵을 갖고 긴 독기를 갖는 것이 특징이었다. 이상의 결과는 꿩 송과샘세포가 광수용능은 것의 없고 분비기능을 주로 수행하는 소견이었으며, 성숙 꿩의 송과샘의 미세구조적 연구를 확인하여 번식기와 비번식기에 따른 비교연구가 수행되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

생쥐 신생자 시기에 생식 세포의 사멸 기전을 알아보기 위하여 세포 사멸을 보이는 생식 세포에서 세포 사멸 관련 단백질인 caspase-3, caspase-activated DNase(CAD), Bax 및 Fasnas ligand의 발현을 조사하였다. 활성화된 caspase-3와 CAD의 면역화학적 염색 결과 일차 및 이차 난포내 TUNEL 양성을 보이는 세포 사멸 난자에서 발현되는 것을 관찰하였다. CAD 또한 TUNEL 양성을 보이는 세포 사멸 난자에서 염색되었다. 활성화된 caspase-3와 CAB에 양성을 보이는 대부분의 난자들은 폐쇄의 형태학적 특징이라고 할 수 있는 세포질 내 공포가 관찰되었다. Bax는 세포질 내 공포가 존재하는 세포 사멸된 난자에서 염색되었다. Fas ligand 또한 TUNEL 양성을 보이는 난자에서 염색되었다. 이러한 TUNEL 양성을 보이는 생식 세포에서 활성화된 caspase-3와 CAD가 염색된 결과는 생쥐 난포 발달 초기 단계에 caspase-3와 CAD가 생식 세포의 세포사멸에 중요한 역할을 할 수 있다는 것을 보여주고 있다. 또한 TUNEL 양성을 보이는 난자에서 Bax와 Fas ligand가 발현된 결과는 이러한 단백질이 난자의 세포 사멸을 조절하는 요소로 작용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of unilateral ovariectomy on the weight of the remaining ovary, the change of number of ovarian follicle, number of corpus luteum and serum progesterone level. Sixty Sprague-Dawley female rats, 23$\pm$2 days old, were divided into 2 groups (control and unilaterally ovariectomized goup) with 30 heads per groups. Each group was again subdivided into 6 groups according to 6 experimental periods; Day 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 after uniteral ovariectomy. Five arts at every 4 day intervals were sacrificed for the measuring of ovarian weight and for quantitative histologic examination of ovary and at the same time, blood samples were taken for the determination of serum progesterone level of radioimmunoassy. The results obtained were as follows: During the experimental periods, a significant hypertrophy occured in the remaining ovary of unilaterally ovariectomized group from day 16 after operation. The average ovarian weight of control group at day 16 was 21.0$\pm$1.7mg, which is samller than that of unilaterally ovariectomized group weighing 50.5$\pm$8.4mg(P<0.01). The ovarian weight of the unilaterally ovariectomized rats at day 20 and day 24 was 75.9$\pm$2.2 mg and 63.3$\pm$7.0 mg, which is heavier than those of control group; 29.1$\pm$2.3 and 26.3$\pm$1.7 mg(P<0.01 and P<0.01). 2. A same degree of ovarian follicle development was observed in the unilaterally ovariectomized group. Following unilateral ovariectomy and there was no change in total number of follicles larger than 130$\mu$ during the period from day 4 till day 24 after operation. 3. Although the size fo ovarian follicle did not significantly change between two groups from day 4 till day 16, the size of vesicular follicle in unilaterally ovariectomized group (406.3$\pm$26.2$\mu$) was significantly greater as compared to that of control group (323.8$\pm$19.3$\mu$)(P<0.05). 4. Corpus luteum in unilaterally ovariectomized and control group began to a, pp.ar from day 16 after operation and then the number of corpus luteum slightly increased. The number of corpus luteum in unilaterally ovariectomized group at day 24 ws remarkably increased (13.7$\pm$1.41) than that of control (5.2$\pm$2.01)(P<0.01). 5. Serum progesterone levels in unilaterally ovariectomized group were slightly higher than those of control but there were no significant difference between treatment groups.

Early development of porcine oocytes fertilized in vitro was examined in different culture conditions. Porcine ovaries were collected from local slaughter-house. Cumulus-oocytes complexes were aspirated from 2 to 6 mm follicles. The collected oocytes were cultured for in vitro maturation in NCSU-23 medium with 5 mM hypotaurine, 0.57 mM cystein, 10% porcine follicle fluid, 10 IU/ml PMSG and 10 IU/ml hCG for 42~44 hrs. The frozen-thawed spermatozoa were washed by centrifigation 2 times at 1, 500 rpm in D-PBS with 5.56 mM glucose, 0.33 mM Na-pyruvate, 100 IU/ml penicillin, 1$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml streptomycin and 1ng/ml BSA. The fertilization medium used mTBM with 2 mM caffeine and 2 mg/ml BSA and adjusted to a pH of 7.2 to 7.4. The final concentration of spermatozoa was adjusted to 2.5$\times$10$^{6}$ cells/ml motile sperm during fertilization in vitro. At 8hrs h after insemination, the oocytes were transferred into NCSU-23 medium with 5.0 mM hypotaurine and 4 mg/ml BSA and cultured for 7 days. In first experiment, the mean numbers of oocytes collected from 20 ovaries were 674.4 oocytes, and 4.1(27.6), 12.5(84.0), 25.4(171.6) and 57.9%(390.8) for A, B, C and D grade in morphological classification. In the second experiment, when culture medium was supplemented with various concentrations of EGF, the proportions of oocytes cleaved were 56.9, 55.7, 61.9 and 54.7% for 0, 5, 10 and 20ng/ml EGF. The higher proportions(15.1%) of oocytes developed to morular stage were obtained at concentration of 10ng/ml than 0 and 5ng/ml EGF (P<0.05). However, the proportions of embryos developed to blastocyst stage were not significantly different among concentrations of EGF. In another experiment, when the medium supplemented with catalase was used, the proportions of oocytes cleaved were higher in the concentration of 0 unit (56.5%, 61/108) than 100 and 1, 000 unit/ml of catalase (P<0.05). Although the developmental capacity of embryos was improved by medium with 0 unit/ml compared with 100, 500 and 1, 000 units/ml of catalase in oocytes developed to morula and blastocyst stages, were not significantly different among concentrations of catalase.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of exogenous gonadotropins (PMSG+hCG) and an antioxidant (cysteine) on in vitro maturation of bovine follicular oocytes. Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) aspirated from 2 to 5 mm ovarian follicles were cultured for 22 to 24 hours in a modified bovine embryo culture medium (mBECM) supplemented with 3 mg/mL bovine serum albumin, to which PMSG (10 IU/mL) + hCG (10 IU/mL) and/or cysteine (0.6 mM) were added. When examined the expansion of cumulus ce1ls at the end of maturation culture, greater (p<0.05) expansion was found after addition of PMSG+hCG (79 to 96%) to mBECM than after no addition (0%), regardless of the presence or absence of cysteine in the medium. The addition of cysteine did not stimulate cumulus expansion, but a high proportion (92%) of expansion was achieved when COCs were cultured after the addition of PMSG+hCG and cysteine to the medium. No difference in the proportion of oocytes underwent germinal vesicle breakdown (initiation of maturation) was found after the addition of PMSG+hCG and/or cysteine to mBECM. However, nuclear maturation (development to the metaphase-II stage) of oocytes was significantly stimulated by the combined addition of PMSG+hCG and cysteine, compared with no addition. In conclusion, both exogenous gonadotropins and an antioxidant are important for nuclear maturation of bovine immature oocytes and these factors have a cell-specific stimulatory action.

The effect of superovulation (PMSG, FSH) on the ovarian response of matured cows were tested. The survival rates of bovine embryos and ovarian oocytes frozen by slow, rapid freezing and vitrification were investigated. A total of 15 heads of cow were devided into 3 groups by injection dose of GTH (PSMG, FSH). Each group was superrovulated with injections of 2, 500, 3, OOOJU PSMG and 40mg FSH followed by injection of 30mg PGF2a. Embryos were non-surgically recovered from superovulated cows 6~7days after estrus. The recovered embryos were frozen in 10% glycerol + 10% sucrose by slow and rapid freezing. Ovarian oncytes were frozen in 20% g]ycerol+l0% ethylene glycerol + 30% Ficol + 10% sucrose by vitrification and the survival of frozen embryos and ovarian oncytes were judged by FDA-test. The results are summarized as follows; 1. Estrus after the injection of 2500, 3000 I.U. PMSG and 4Omg FSH were 32.8, 35.0 and 43.4 and the duration of estrus were 18.6, 18.8 and 22.4 hours respectively. 2. The average sizes of the left ovaries were 5.4cm (2, 500 IU PMSG), 5.1cm (3, OOOIU PMSG) and 6.4cm (FSH), and the right were 6.2cm (2, 5001U PMSG), 5.7cm (3, OOOIU PMSG) and 7.&m (FSH) respectively. There were significant differences in the right overies among treatments (P<0.05). 3. The average number of ovarian follicles in the left ovaries were 4.8 (2, 500 IU PMSG), 5.2(3, 000 IU PMSG) and 7.8 (FSH) respectively. There were significant difference in the right ovaries among treatments (P<0.05). 4. In the average numbers of ovulation points in the left ovaries were 3.0 (2, 5001U PMSG), 3.2 (3, OOOIU PMSG) and 4.4 (FSH) respectively, and the right were 7.2 (2, 5001U PMSG), 7.8(3, 000IU PMSG) and 11.4 (FSH). There were significant differences in the right ovaries among treatments (P<0.05). 5. The numbers of the recovered embryos were 20 (2, 5001U PMSG), 19 (3, 000 IU PMSG) and 21 (FSH) respectively, and oncytes and degenerted oncytes were 6.5 and 11.0 Estrus periods of post parturation were 52.4days (2, 5001U PMSG), 69.8days (3, OOOIU PMSG) and 62.4days (FSH) respectively. 6. The FDA score of cow morulae frozen by slow freezing, sernirapid frezing and vitrified freezing was higher in slow (3.1) and vitrified freezing (3.0) than that in semirapid freezing (1.28). The FDA-scores of cow, pig and rabbit ovarian oocytes frozen in 20% glycerol + 10% ethylene glycol + 30% Ficoll + 10% sucrose by vitrification were higher in cows (3.3) than both in pigs (2.6) and rabbits (2.3).

These experiments were undertaken to establish the optimal culture systems for in vitro maturation, fertilization and subsequently embryonic development of porcine immature follicular oocytes isolated from the ovary of slaughtered pigs. Porcine ovaries were brought to the laboratory from local slaughter house within 1 hour after slaughtering and cumulus oocytes complexes were recovered from antral follicles (3~5mm) with 23 gauge needle. To maturate follicular oocytes, cumulus oocytes complexes were washed three times with TCM-199 containing 25mM HEPES and incubated (39$^{\circ}C$, 5% CO2 in air) for 42hrs. Ejaculated and liquid storaged boar spermatozoa capacitated with different sperm capacitation methods and media were prepared forfertilizaing of matured follicular oocytes in vitro. Fertilization was performed by adding 5~10${mu}ell$ of capacitated spermatozoa containing 1~5$\times$105 sperm/ml to droplets. Eighteen to twenty-eight hours after sperm insemination, fertilized eggs were washed three times with culture media and transferred to the culture media. The fertilization rates of in vitro matured follicular oocytes cultured in B. O., TCM-HEPES, m-KRB, and TALP-II media were 61.3%, 83.0%, 88.9% and 89.2%, respectively. In addition, the polyspermy rates were 60.7%, 66.5%, 53.8%, and 43.9%, respectively. These data indicated that the highest of fertilization and the lowest of polyspermy rate was shown in TALP-II medium. Spermatozoa capacitated by caffeine, heparin, and percoll density gradient treatment in the 4 different media, the fertilization rates were 33.0~57.2%, 39.9~90.2%, and 52.6~92.8%, respectively, showing the lowest rate in caffeine treatment. The development rate of follicular oocytes, fertilized with the spermatozoa capacitated by caffeine, heparin, and percoll gradient in the TALP-II medium, upto 2 to 4-cell stages were 32.6%, 74.5% and 70.9%, respectively. Finally, fertilization rates of follicular oocytes cultured with follicular fluid containing medium from 10 to 100% were 61.2~94.1% and the rates (90~94%) with 10~20% follicular fluids were significantly higher than those (85.3%) of cultured in the media without follicular fluid. In addition, the rates of pronucleus formation were also higher in follicular fluid treated group (73.1~83.0%) than those (64.7%) of oocytes cultured without follicular fluid. The highest fertilization and pronucleus formation rates was found in oocytes cultured with 10% follicular fluid. These results suggest that the addition of heparin or percoll density gradient method is better capacitation method. Furthermore, the addition of porcine follicular fluid to the fertilization medium may improve the fertilization rates and formation of pronucleus.
