초록

It is well established that mammalian cumulus cell (CC) expansion requires BMP15 (bone morphogenetic protein bone morphogenetic protein 15) and GDF9 (growth differentiation factor 9). However, the mechanisms of the factors in CC expansion are largely unclear. This study was conducted to examine the two paracrine factors and their receptor SMAD intracellular signaling mechanism of mediating porcine CC expansion and oocyte maturation, and to compare COCs (Cumulus–oocyte complexes) maturation to DOs (Denuded oocytes). COCs and DOs were in vitro matured in medium with FSH, LH and TGFB superfamily antagonists. Our results showed that the expansion of COCs was unaffected by addition of GDF9 and BMP15 recombinant protein, but cumulus cell proliferation and DOs maturation rate were enhanced. The mRNA expressions of SMAD receptor confirmed that oocytes secreted factors that activate SMAD3,4 and SMAD1 in granulosa cells and oocytes, but unaffected SMAD2. Treatment of COCs with a SMAD2/3 phosphorylation inhibitor (SB431542) inhibited CC expansion and expression of TNFAIP6. SB431542 also was revealed to inhibit DOs maturation. The activation of CC SMAD signaling by oocytes, and the requirement of SMAD2/3 signaling for expansion and oocyte maturation were studied in pig. Nonetheless, porcine oocyte maturation without SMAD2/3 signaling is likely to be needed for optimal matrix formation, but also BMP15 and GDF9 is likely to be needed in oocyte.
