Suplementação do meio de maturação com gonadotrofinas placentárias na produção in vitro de blastocistos bovinos

Abstract

The in vitro maturation (IVM) is considered one of the most challenging steps of in vitro production (IVP) of bovine embryos. The IVM medium must provide the conditions required for nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation to occur similarly to physiological. The pituitary gonadotropins are essential components that enable oocytes for fertilization (in vivo), but as the gonadotropins (pituitary or chorionic) are essential for IVM, their employed concentrations are still indefinite. We aimed to establish optimal concentrations of chorionic gonadotropin (eCG and hCG) to replace those of FSH and LH commonly used; to compare the effect of low concentrations of eCG and/or hCG alone or in combination with pituitary gonadotropins; and to analyze how necessary is the use of FSH and LH, individually, on the IVP of embryos free from any protein source. Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs), obtained from ovaries of slaughterhouse were selected and used in three experiments: 1) COCs matured on the IVM medium with six different concentrations of eCG (0, 0.015, 0.15, 1.3; 1.5 and 4 IU ml-1) yielding the experimental groups (C +, E1, E2, E3, E4 and E5, respectively) and six different concentrations of hCG (0, 0.05, 0.5, 0, 67, 2 and 5 IU ml-1), also yielding six experimental groups (C +, H1, H2, H3, H4 and H5, respectively); 2) IVM medium with minimal concentrations functional of eCG and hCG obtained in the previous experiment, resulting in seven groups: without any gonadotropin; only eCG (0.015 IU mL-1); only hCG (0.05 IU mL-1); eCG plus hCG, eCG plus LH; hCG plus FSH; FCS with FSH (0.5 mg ml-1) and LH (5 mg ml-1); and 3) IVM in the presence of FSH (0.5 mg mL-1) or LH (5 mg ml-1), without protein supplementation. The matured COCs were fertilized and cultured in incubator (38.3 °C, 5% CO2 and maximum humidity). Embryo development was evaluated in terms of cleavage, blastocyst and hatching rates (at 72, 168 and 240 hours post-insemination, ...

A maturação in vitro (MIV) é considerada uma das etapas mais desafiadoras da produção in vitro (PIV) de embriões bovinos. O meio de MIV deve fornecer condições necessárias para que a maturação citoplasmática e nuclear ocorra de modo próximo ao fisiológico. As gonadotrofinas hipofisárias são essenciais para que o oócito adquira (in vivo) a competência para ser fertilizado; entretanto, se as gonadotrofinas (hipofisárias ou coriônicas) são essenciais, na MIV, as concentrações a serem utilizadas ainda são controversas. Os objetivos, com este estudo, foram estabelecer concentrações otimizadas de gonadotrofinas coriônicas (eCG e hCG) para a substituição daquelas comumente utilizadas de FSH e LH; comparar o efeito de baixas concentrações de eCG e/ou de hCG, isoladamente ou em conjunto com gonadotrofinas hipofisárias; e analisar a necessidade da utilização do FSH e do LH, individualmente, na PIV de embriões livre de suplementação proteica. Complexos cumulus-oócito (CCOs) obtidos de ovários de vacas provenientes de abatedouro, foram selecionados e utilizados em três experimentos: 1) CCOs maturados em meio MIV com seis concentrações distintas de eCG (0; 0,015; 0,15; 1,3; 1,5 e 4 UI mL-1 ) dando origem aos grupos experimentais (C+; E1; E2; E3; E4 e E5, respectivamente), e seis concentrações distintas de hCG (0; 0,05; 0,5; 0,67; 2 e 5 UI mL-1), originando também seis grupos experimentais (C+; H1; H2; H3; H4 e H5, respectivamente); 2) Meio MIV com concentrações mínimas funcionais de eCG e hCG obtidas no experimento anterior, resultando em sete grupos experimentais: sem quaisquer gonadotrofinas; apenas eCG (0,015 UI mL-1); apenas hCG (0,05 UI mL-1); eCG mais hCG; eCG mais LH; hCG mais FSH; e SFB com FSH (0,5 μg mL-1) e LH (5 μg mL-1); e 3) MIV na presença de FSH (0,5 μg mL-1) ou LH (5 μg mL-1) sem nenhuma suplementação proteica. Os CCOs maturados foram fertilizados e...
