Vitrification preserves chromatin integrity, bioenergy potential and oxidative parameters in mouse embryos
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of vitrification on morpho-functional parameters (blastomere/chromatin integrity and bioenergy/oxidative potential) of mouse preimplantation embryos. METHODS In vivo produced mouse (4/16-cell, morulae and blastocyst-stage) embryos were randomly divided into vitrification and control groups. For vitrification, embryos were exposed to...
متن کاملVitrification of Mouse and Sheep Embryos
Vitrification is a method of storing cells in a supercooled state, and is particularly useful for the cryostorage of embryos. With a supply of liquid nitrogen and simple apparatus, vitrification in the field situation is feasible and is potentially simpler and cheaper than the standard freezing processes. However, survival of embryos after vitrification has not yet proved better than after free...
متن کاملWhich stage of mouse embryos is more appropriate for vitrification?
Objective Vitrification has been shown as one of the most effective methods of cryopreservation for mammalian embryos. However, there is no consensus which stage of embryonic development is the most appropriate for vitrification with subsequent maximal development after thawing. This study was carried out to explore and compare the effect(s) of vitrification on mouse 2-cell, 4-cell, 8-cell, mor...
متن کاملDifferent chromatin and energy/redox responses of mouse morulae and blastocysts to slow freezing and vitrification
BACKGROUND The ability to cryopreserve mammalian embryos has become an integral part of assisted reproduction, both in human and veterinary medicine. Despite differences in the size and physiological characteristics of embryos from various species, the embryos have been frozen by either of two procedures: slow freezing or vitrification. The aim of our study was to compare the effect of slow fre...
متن کاملP-1: Morphine Has Detrimental Effects on Sperm Parameters, Chromatin Quality and DNA Integrity in Mice
Background Morphine as a natural alkaloid (opiate) is considered as one of the problems associated with poor semen production and sperm quality. For the first time, this experimental study was carried out to evaluate the impact of intra-peritoneal injection of morphine on sperm parameters, chromatin quality and DNA integrity of spermatozoa aspirated from cauda epididymis of mice. MaterialsAndMe...
