Objectives: The purpose of this present study was to compare mouse embryo development in 3 commercial media and hatching competence of mouse embryo with or without enzymatic treatment. Methods: Collected 375 mouse embryos were divided into three groups, and then cultured in IVF-20 (G2), Medicult IVF (M3), P-1 (blastocyst M), respectively. Three day mouse morulae were cultured in G2 media treated with pronase. The results were analyzed using Chi-square test, and considered statistically significant when p<0.01. Results: The developmental rate of 2 cell mouse embryo after 72 hours was highest in IVF-20 (G2) among conventional 3 media. The hatching rate of mouse morulae was low when clultured in G2 media without pronase during 48 hours. However, it was higher when cultured in media treated with $1{\mu}g/ml$, $2.5{\mu}g/ml$, $5{\mu}g/ml$ pronase, respectively. Conclusions: Using good media and digestion of zona pellucida with enzymatic treatment improve development and hatching rate of embryo. Therefore, implantation and pregnancy rate could be improved.

마우스(ICR mouse)의 신경배형성에 따른 뇌 및 척수 신경상피의 조직학적 및 미세구조적 분화를 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 배발생 8일 (embryonic day 8) 마우스배 (mouse embryo)에서 위중층원주상피의 신경판 및 신경고랑이 형성되었고, 배발생 9일에서는 두부의 전단부 및 말단부를 제외한 전 체장에서 신경관이 형성되었으며, 배발생 10일에서는 미아에서 이차신경배형성이 이루어졌다. 배발생 8일 마우스배의 미부 말단부에서는 신경상피와 중간엽과의 경계가 불분명한 원시선이 관찰되었고, 두부에서는 신경상피, 척삭 및 중간엽세포의 구분이 분명하였다. 배발생 9일과 10일 마우스배의 경우, 후뇌 부위에서는 표피 외배엽세포의 결합에 의하여, 척수 부위에서는 신경상피세포의 결합에 의하여 덮개판을 이루어졌고, 바닥판은 높이가 낮은 위중층원주상피세포로 이루어겼다. 배발생 10일 마우스배에서 척수의 운동신경이 처음 분화되었다. 배발생 9일과 10일 마우스배에서 신경상피세포들은 세포소기관의 분화 및 전자밀도의 차이에 따라 암세포, 중간형세포 및 명세포로 구분되었다. 배발생 9일에서는 모든 형의 세포가 관찰되었으나, 배발생 10일에서는 중간형 및 명세포들 만이 관찰되었다. 모든 신경상피세포에서 free ribosome 및 polysome들이 다같이 발달하였으나, 암세포에서는 RER과 lipid droplet들, 중간형세포와 명세포에서는 Golgi체들이 발달하였다. 중간형세포의 세포질돌기에서는 신경미세섬유, 명세포의 세포질들기에서는 신경미세섬유 뿐만 아니라 미세소관들도 다수 관찰되었다.

This research was conducted to observe developmental capacity of the early embryos aggrigated to phytohemagglutinin-M(PHA-M) in the culture of mouse embryos in vitro. The results showed that the development of blastocyst increased to 2-celT >< 2-cell : 68. 9%, 4-cell $\times$4-cell : 92.5% and 8-cell $\times$8-cell : 97.3% in the aggrigated embryos of ICR mouse, and 2-cell $\times$ 2-cell : 90.0%, 4-cell $\times$4-cell : 93.9% and 8-cell $\times$ 8-cell : 100% in the aggrigated embryos of two different strains (ICR $\times$ CBA/J mouse). (Key words : aggrigated embryos, in vitro 2-cell block, phytohemagglutinin-M, blastocyst)

Objective: To evaluate the effect of serum obtained before and after treatment for endometriosis on in vitro fertilization and development of two cell mouse embryo. Design: Pretreatment and posttreatment comparoson of fertilization of mouse oocyte and embryo development in serum supplement from patients with endometriosis; result were compared using Stuent T-test analysis. Method: Infertility Clinic, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Collage of Medicine, Won kwang university, Korea. Patients was chosed eleven consecutive women with endometriosis. Interventions was all patient underwent laparoscopic or conservative surgery. This was followed by a 6-month course of burserelin acetate $900{\mu}g/d$. Main outcome was measured total number of fertilization and embryo that was fertilization after 24 hours and reached blastocyst stage after 72 hours of incubation were compared before and after treatment. Result: Before treatment, 47% of the oocyte were fertilized and 31% of the embryo reached blastocyst stage. After treatment, Significantly more fertilized and Significantly more embryo developed to blastocyst on the stage I and II of endometriosis. Conclusion: The fertilization and embryo toxicity of serum samples from patients with endometriosis is lost after treatment.

In mammals, major progress has recently been made with the dissection of early embryonic cell specification, the isolation of stem cells from early embryos, and the production of embryonic-like stem cells from adult cells. These studies have overcome long-standing species barriers for stem cell isolation, have revealed a deeper than expected similarity of embryo cell types across species, and have led to a better understanding of the lineage identities of embryo-derived stem cells, most notably of mouse and human embryonic stem (ES) cells. Thus, it has now become possible to propose a species-overarching classification of embryo stem cells, which are defined here as pre- to early post-implantation conceptus-derived stem cell types that maintain embryonic lineage identities in vitro. The present article gives an overview of these cells and discusses their relationships with each other and the conceptus. Consequently, it is debated whether further embryo stem cell types await isolation, and the study of the earliest extraembryonically committed stem cells is identified as a promising new research field.
