L-proline: a highly effective cryoprotectant for mouse oocyte vitrification
Recent studies have shown that L-proline is a natural osmoprotectant and an antioxidant to protect cells from injuries such as that caused by freezing and thawing in many species including plant, ram sperm and human endothelial cells. Nevertheless, this nontoxic cryoprotectant has not yet been applied to mammalian oocyte vitrification. In this study we evaluated the efficiency and safety of the...
متن کاملthe vitrification of metaphase ii mouse oocyte using ethylene glycol as cryoprotectant
introduction: the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of vitrification procedure on the survival, fertilization, development and ultrastructure of metaphase (mii) mouse oocyte. materials and methods: female nmri mice 6-10 weeks old were superovulated using ip injection of 10 iu hmg and 10 iu hcg. ovulated oocyte were collected from the ampullary portion of the oviducts at 12-13 ...
متن کاملNanoliter droplet vitrification for oocyte cryopreservation.
AIM Oocyte cryopreservation remains largely experimental, with live birth rates of only 2-4% per thawed oocyte. In this study, we present a nanoliter droplet technology for oocyte vitrification. MATERIALS & METHODS An ejector-based droplet vitrification system was designed to continuously cryopreserve oocytes in nanoliter droplets. Oocyte survival rates, morphologies and parthenogenetic devel...
متن کاملSimplified EM Grid Vitrification Is a Convenient and Efficient Method for Mouse Mature Oocyte Cryopreservation
This study was performed to evaluate the efficiency of simplified EM grid vitrification, skipping the step of removing the cryoprotectant (5.5M EG + 1.0M sucrose) droplet on the grid after loading oocytes, compared to conventional cryopreservation protocols for mouse mature oocytes. Firstly, the recovery, survival, fertilization and hatching rates of simplified EM grid vitrification were compar...
متن کاملProline: Mother Nature's cryoprotectant applied to protein crystallography.
L-Proline is one of Mother Nature's cryoprotectants. Plants and yeast accumulate proline under freeze-induced stress and the use of proline in the cryopreservation of biological samples is well established. Here, it is shown that L-proline is also a useful cryoprotectant for protein crystallography. Proline was used to prepare crystals of lysozyme, xylose isomerase, histidine acid phosphatase a...
