        In mammal, oocytes are arrested at the metaphase Ⅱ until fertilization. However, unfertilized oocytes that remain in the oviduct or under in vitro culture, which is called "oocyte aging". Asynchrony negatively affects fertilization, pre- and post-implantation embryo development. Caffeine is known to phosphodiesterase inhibitor that rescues oocyte aging in several species. Nevertheless, the effect of caffeine was not clear in bovine aging oocytes. In this study investigated the cytoskeleton distribution in aged oocytes and the embryo development ability of aged oocytes from treated with or without caffeine during maturation. The cumulus and oocyte complexes (COCs) were cultured in 10% FBSTCM199 for up to 22h at 38.5℃ in 5% CO₂. For oocyte aging study, the COCs were cultured in 10% FBS-TCM199 supplemented with or without 10 mM caffeine for 40hs. And then oocytes underwent in vitro fertilization using highly motile sperm recovered from frozen and than thawed bull semen. As a result normal cytoskeleton percentage of caffeine treatment group more than the aging group (67.57%±4.11 VS 44.61%±6.40) and no significantly different compared to control group. Aged oocytes derived from addition of caffeine to the in vitro maturation medium significantly increased the percentage of 2- cell that developed to the blastocyst stage compared to the aging group. Blastocysts derived from caffeine treatment group significantly increased the total cell number compare aging (90.44%±10.18 VS 67.88%±7.72). Apoptotic fragmenting of genomic DNA was measured in individual embryos using the TUNEL assay. Blastocyst derived from caffeine treatment group significantly decereased the apoptotic index compared to blastocyst derived from aging group. In conclusion, we inferred that the caffeine treatment during oocytes aging periode can improved the develpmental rate and quaility in bovine embryos developing in vitro.
