| Summary: | The aim of this trial was to evaluate the effects of meiotic inhibiton with biological and pharmacological inhibitors during transportation of bovine oocytes for 6 hours in: 1) nuclear maturation progress; 2) cytoplasmic maturation and 3) embryo development and quality. Thus, the transportation media were supplemented with butyrolactone-I, milrinone, IBMX and forskolin or follicular fluid. Oocytes were transported during 6 hours and then submitted to in vitro maturation (IVM) until completing 24 hours, then they were fertilized and the presumptive zygotes cultured during 7 days. There were made two control groups in the first experiment: 24h IVM in 5% CO2 in air (C1); 6h IVM in transport and 18h more in 5% CO2 in air (C2). In the second experiment there were made three control groups: IVM with 10% FCS (Contr FCS); IVM with 0,6% BSA (Contr BSA); 6h IVM in transport and 18h more in 5% CO2 in air (Contr Transp). Experiment 1 evaluated nuclear maturation kinetics and cumulus cell expansion. Cytoplasmic maturation was also evaluated after transport and after IVM through the evaluation of mitochondria position and membrane potential, actin microfilaments distribution. Apoptotic rates and intracellular measurement of reactive oxygen species were evaluated as well. Experiment 2 evaluated cleavage (72 hpi) and blastocyst (168 hpi) rates and embryo quality by total cell number, apoptosis and caspases activity. In experiment 1 no differences (P>0.05) were observed between treatments in metaphase II rates after 24h IVM (61.2%-74.7%). Cumulus cells expansion was higher (P<0.05) in FF group after 6h and there were no differences (P>0.05) between treatments after IVM (4.8- 5.0). Actin microfilaments distribution was higher (P<0.05) in MR group for diffuse category (37.4%) after 6h IVM when compared to immature (6.4%) and FF groups (8.1%), but it was predominantly in normal category and did not differ (P>0,05) between groups after IVM ... |
