This study was conducted to examine the condition of in vitro culture system and the viability after embryo transfer of in vitro matured-in vitro fertilized (IVM-IVF) bovine embryos. The in vitro development to the blastocyst stage was enhanced by supplying bovine serum albumin(BSA) to co-culture medium with bovine oviduct epithelial tissue(BOET) compared with that in medium supplemented with fetal bovine serum(FBS) (41.2% vs. 26. 3%, P<0.05). After transfer of IVM-IVF blastocysts into the uterine horn of recipient females (Aberdeen Angus), one was pregnant to term and produced a head of male Korean native calf. These results confirm that the in vitro development of IVM-IVF bovine embryos is affected with different protein source in co-culture with BOET, and IVM-IVF embryos can develop to term after in vitro culture and embryo transfer.
This experiment was carried out to develop the model system for mass production of biomedical and nutritional proteins (human proteins) through mamraary gland of the transgenic cattle produced by gene manipulation and embryological technologies. Human growth hormone gene fused with rat -casein gene promoter was microinjected into pronuclei of one cell bovine embryos produced by in vitro fertilization. After microinjection, embryos were cultured in vitro for 6 or 7 days. Twenty embryos reaching to blastocysts were transferred to 10 beef recipients, each receiving two embryos. Recipients were diagnosed for pregnancy by rectal palpation at 76 days after embryo transfer. One of them was pregnant to term and produced a female calf weighing 21 kg at 280 days following embryo transfer. DNA was extracted from umbilical cord tissue and blood of calf born for confirming gene insertion. As determined by Southern hybridization, the transgene was not found.
The study was conducted to determine the optimal hormone and glucose levels during the in vitro culture of bovine oocytes matured and fertilized in vitro for blastocyst development. Oocytes matured in TCM 199 + 10% FCS + hormones and glucose were fertilized in vitro in a TALP medium with swim up separated and heparin-treated epididymal cauda spermatozoa. Oocytes were cultured for 2~5 days in synthetic oviduct fluid medium (SOFM) supplemented with 10% FGS and with different hormone and glucose levels, and further cultured 5 days same medium in SOFM. The results are summarized as follows : The in vitro maturation and penetration rates of porcine oocytes cultured in TCM 199 media containing PMSG, hCG, PMSG + hCG, hCG + estradiol, PMSG + estradiol 0 to20 hours after insemination were 88.0% and 81.8%, 82.6% and 68.4%, 80.0% and 75.0%, 80.0% and 65.0%, 77.3% and 64.7%, respectively. The in vitro maturation and penetration rates of porcine oocytes cultured in TCM 199 media containing PMSG, hCG, PMSG + hCG, hCG + estradiol, PMSG + estradiol 20 to 40 hours after insemination were 92.0% and 87.0%, 92.0% and 82.6%, 91.3% and 81.0%, 85.2% and 73.9%, 87.5% and 81.0%, respectively. The cleavage and in vitro developmental rates to blastocyst of porcine oocytes cultured in TCM 199 media containing 0.05 mM, 0.10 mM, 0.30 mM, 0.50 mM, 1.00 mM, and 3.00 mM glucose lelvels 0~3 days after insemination were 31.5~48.1% and 10.0~16.7%, respectively. The cleavage and in vitro developmental rates to blastocyst of porcine oocytes cultured in TCM 199 media containing 0.05 mM, 0.10 mM, 0.30 mM, 0.50 mM, 1.00 mM, and 3.00 mM glucose levels 4~8 days after insemination were 30.0~53.8% and 8.7~19.2%, respectively. The cleavage and in vitro developmental rates to blastocyst were higher in TCM 199 media containing various glucose levels 0~3 days after insemination than 4~8 days.

This study was undertaken to investigate effects of granulosa cells on mejotic maturation of porcine oocytes in vitro. The results obtained in this study were summarized as follows : The germinal vesicle breakdown(GVBD) rates were 91.5, 93.3 and 96.6%, respectively, when the cumulus oocy:e cornplexes(COC) in the TCM-199 medium with sodium bicarbonate, Na pyruvate, penicillin G, streptomycin sulfate and 10% FCS were cultured in the condition of FSH(0.02 Au/ml), LH(10 g/ml) and FSH + LH added. And when the COC were co-cultured with granulosa cell (5 106 cells /ml) in the condition of FSH, LH and FSH + LH added, GVBD rates were 94.3, 92.9 and 98.9%, respectively. However, when the COC were cultured in the condition of hormone free and co-cultured with granulosa cells in the condition of hormone free, the GVBD rates were 40.4 and 86.3%, respectively. The GVBD rates were 41.0, 62.7, 84.6, 88.1 and 93.6%, respectively, when the COC were co-cultured with granulosa cells that the concentrations are 0 cells /ml, 1 106 cells /ml, 5:: 106 cells /ml, 1 107 cells /ml and 5 107 cells /ml.
원시생식세포(primordial germ cell; PGC)는 성성숙 이후에 기능을 갖는 생식세포의 근원이 되는 세포로서, 다능성을 갖고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러므로 chimera 및 유전자 변환동물 생산을 위해 널리 사용되어 온 배아주(embrynic stem; ES)세포를 대신할 다른 세포계라고 생각되어져 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 실험은 체외배양을 통하여 원시생식세포의 증식과 확립을 위해 배양조건을 구명하고, 또한 성장인자의 효과를 검
Immatured bovine follicular oocytes added with serum, hormones, granulosa cells and bovine oviduct epithelium cells were fertilized in vitro after in vitro maturation. In vitro maturation and early development capacity were examined and IVF-derived embryos were transferred and to recipients and effects of sperm treatment on in vitro capacitation were investigated. The rate of in vitro maturation was improved when they were co-culutred with granulosa cells in the TCM199 medium added with 10% FCS and hormones. The percentage of acrosome reaction was not differed between sperm treatments and sperm of above 25% under-went AR during 30 min preincubation with caffeine and heparin. The cleavage rate of oocytes in vitro fertilized in TCM199 medium added with 10% FCS and hormones, GC or BOEG higher than that in medium with 10% FCS and GC. But the rate was not significantly different between GC and BOEG The cleavage of rate oocytes cultured in medium containing serum, hormones and BOEG was 80.2% and more embryos were developed to Blastocyst (17.3%). The selected embryos were transferred to 9 recipients by surgical or nonsurgical method but did not result in pregnancy.
The objective of this study was to develop an effective in vitro production system capable of obtaining more porcine embryos from immature oocytes These experiments were conducted to examine the effect of sperm factor on the IVF and IVD, and the effect of coculture with somatic cells on the IVD of embryos. Although the concentration of epididymal sperm for IVF did not affect on cleavage rate, but 5 x 105 sperm/mi showed the highest cleavage rate(48.7%) and the developmental potential of IVF oocytes from this concentration was also greatly higher (P-stored sperm for l2hrs and the cleavage rate from fresh sperm was significantly higher (P<0.05) than that from frozen sperm, but the developmental potential after IVF was slightly high from the frozen sperm. The cleavage rate of IVF oocytes cocultured with oviductal epithelial cells and cumulus cells was 76.3% and 72.9%, respectively. There was no difference between two coculture systems but this rate was significantly higher(P<0.05) than that of medium alone(42.0%).
