본 연구는 돼지의 정자와 난소내 과립막세포에서 bisphenol S(BPS)가 생존성과 활성산소 생산에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 연구하였다. 돼지정액은 0, 5μM BPS를 처리하여 3, 6시간동안 배양하였다. 정자의 생존성은 SYBR14/PI를 이중 염색하여 분석하였으며, 활성산소의 생산을 측정하였다. 또한, BPS(0, 5, 10, 20μM)를 과립막세포에 처리하여 24, 48, 72시간동안 처리하였다. 처리 후, 세포의 생존율과 활성산소 생산(단, 5μM BPS)을 측정하였다. 그 결과, 돼지에서 정자의 생존율은 BPS에 의해 감소하였고, 활성산소의 생산은 모든 처리시간에서 증가하였다(p<0.05). 또한 과립막세포의 생존은 BPS에 의해 억제되었고, 활성산소는 유의적으로 증가하였다(p<0.05). 이상의 결과를 토대로, BPS의 노출은 정자의 활성과 번식과 관련된 세포에 나쁜 영향을 미칠 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of taurine and vitamin E on ovarian granulosa cells damaged by bromopropane (BP) in pigs. We evaluated cell viability, plasma membrane integrity (PMI) and apoptotic morphological change in porcine ovarian granulosa cells. The cells were treated with 1-BP (0, 5.0, 10, and 50 μM), 2-BP (0, 5.0, 10, and 50 mM), taurine (0, 5.0, 10, and 25 mM), and vitamin E (0, 100, 200, and 400 μM) for 24 h. 10 μM 1-BP and 50 μM 2-BP inhibited viability and PMI, and induced apoptosis in porcine ovarian granulosa cells (p < 0.05). Cell viability and PMI were increased by taurine (10 and 25 mM) and vitamin E (100 and 200 μM), and apoptosis decreased (p < 0.05). Finally, the porcine ovarian granulosa cells were co-treated with BPs (10 μM), taurine (10 mM) and/or vitamin E (200 μM). Cell viability and PMI in the co-treated cells were increased, and apoptosis was decreased. In conclusion, taurine and vitamin E can improve cell viability and inhibition of apoptosis in porcine ovarian granulosa cells damaged by bromopropane.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes of protein patterns in granulosa cells and corpus luteum in ovaries during the estrus cycle in cows. The estrus cycle was devided into five steps of follicular, ovulatory, early-luteal, mid-luteal and late-luteal phases. In results, 61 spots of total 85 spots were repeated on follicular phase and 51 spots of total 114 spots were repeated on ovulatory phase. The 40 spots of total 129 spots were repeated on early-luteal phase and 49 spots of total 104 spots were repeated on mid-luteal phase. Also 41 spots of total 60 spots were repeated on late-luteal phase. On the other hands, the 16 spots were indicated difference in follicular phase and ovulation phase had a difference 10 spots. It was showed difference No. 103 spot in ovulation phase, No. 135 spot in early-luteal phase and No. 175 and 176 spots in mid-luteal phase. Also, the 11 spots were expressed specifically in mid-luteal phase and No. 178 and 179 spots were difference of expression in late-luteal phase. We confirmed that there were 7 spots for ovulation, 4 spots for luteinization and 2 spots for luteolysis. Spot No. 89～93 in ovulation phase were transferrin, and spot No.94～98 were HSP60. Spot No. 103 was Dusty PK, spot No. 135 was OGDC- E2, and spot No. 175 and 176 were Rab GDI beta from luteinization. Spot No. 178 and 179 in luteolysis were vimentin. This results suggest that will be help to basic data about infertility.

Changing Proteins in Granulosa Cells during Follicular Development in Pig In-Soon Chae1, Dong-Min Jang3, Hee-Tae Cheong2, Boo-Keun Yang1 and Choon-Keun Park1,† 1College of Animal Life Sciences, 2School of Veterinary Medicine, Kangwon National University, Chuncheon 200-701, Korea 3CHA Stem Cell Institute, CHA Hospital, Seoul 463-712, Korea ABSTRACT This study analyzed change of proteins in granulosa cells during the porcine follicuar development by proteomics techniques. Granulosa cells of the follicles, of which the diameter is 2～4 mm and 6～10 mm, were collected from ovary of slaughtered pig that each follicle of diameter 1～4 mm and 6～10 mm. We extracted glanulosa cell proteins by M-PER Mammalian Protein Extraction Reagent. Proteins were refined by clean-up kit and quantified by Bradford method until total protein was 200 μl. Immobilized pH gradient(IPG) strip used 18 cm, 3～10 NL. SDS-PAGE used 10% acrylamide gel. After silver staining, Melanie 7 and naked eye test were used for spot analyzation. Increasing proteins in glanulosa cell of 6～10 mm follicle were 7 spots. This spots were analyzed by MALDI-TOF MS and searched on NCBInr. In results, 7 spots were similar to zinc/ling finger protein 3 precursor (RING finger protein 203), angiomotin, heat shock 60 kDa protein 1 (chaperonin) isoform 1 (HSP60), similar to transducin-like enhancer protein 1 (TLE 1), SH3 and PX domains 2A (SH3PXD2A). Those proteins were related with transfer between cells. Increase of proteins has an effect on follicular development.

Relaxin과 insulin이 돼지 난포 과립막세포의 스테로이드 호르몬 분비에 미치는 영향을 연구하기위하여 체외에서 황체화된 과립막세포에서 prosesterone과 의 생산을 조사하였다. 돼지난포 과립막세포를 혈청 존재하에 배양접시에 부착 후 48시간 동안 체외배양하고 무혈청 배지에서 24시간 배양하였다. Relaxin과 insulin의 용량의존성을 확인하기 위하여 다양한 농도 (10, 100, 1,000 ng/ml)를 각각 무혈청 배지에 첨가하였다.

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.

This experiment was investigated the effect of presence of granulosa cells from follicles of different size on bovine oocyte maturation, cleavage and development to late stage. The nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation of oocytes in the IVM-IVF system are critical for subsequent embryo development. Granulosa cells when the co-cultured with oocytes may interact with cumulus-oocytes complexes and influence the development competence of the oocytes. Granulosa cells from medium (2~6 mm) and large(>1O mm) size follicles were recovered by aspiration, washed 3 times by centrifugation at 500 x g for 5 min. and used for co-culture at a concentration of 2~3 x 106 cells/mi. The oocytes were matured in vitro (IVM) for 24 hrs. in TCM-199 supplemented with 35 g/ml FSH, 10 g/ml LH, 1 g/ml estradiol-17 and granulosa cells at 39 under 5% in air. They were fertilized in vitro (IVF) by epididymal spermatozoa treated with heparin for 24 hrs., and then the zygotes were co-cultured in vitro (I VC) with bovine oviductal epithelial cells for 7 to 9 days. The assessment of maturation revealed that Grade J oocytes showed significantly(P

The present study was performed to investigate the effects of co-culture with granulosa cells on in vitro fertilization and cleavage of early bovine embryo development. Bovine oocytes were matured for 20-24 hrs in vitro with granulosa cells or without and then fertilized in vitro using frozen-thawed spermatozoa treated with BO-caffeine, BO-BSA(2OmM heparin added). At l8hrs after insemination, oocytes were fixed and examined or further cultured in TCM 199 for 48hrs. The fertilization rates between the control(70.4%) and the groups of co-cultured with granulosa cell(2.5106 cells/ml; 71.6%, 5.0 106/ml; 71.9%, l.0 107/ml; 71.1%) did not differ significantly. The cleavage rates in the groups co-cultured with granulosa cell(2.5 106 cells/mi; 43.6%, 5.0 106/ml; 46.8%. l.0 107/ml; 45.0%)were significantly higher than that of without granulosa cell, respectively(P<0.05). However there were no significant differences between the groups co-cultured with granulosa cells. The result indicated that co-culture with granulosa cell was effective means to cleavage of bovine follicular oocytes but did not affect the in vitro fertilization.
