چکیده

Culture of bovine preimplantation embryos with gossypol, a polyphenolic pigment in cottonseed, inhibits development. Neither stage at which embryos are most sensitive to gossypol, nor the mechanism by which development is blocked is known. Our objectives were to characterize stages at which gossypol inhibits embryonic development and evaluate involvement of apoptosis in actions of gossypol. When presumptive 1-cell embryos were cultured continuously in medium containing gossypol at concentrations of 0, 2.5, 5, and 10 microg/mL, cleavage rate was not reduced by any concentration of gossypol, but percentages of 1-cell embryos that became blastocysts 8 d after insemination was reduced by the 10 microg/mL dose of gossypol. Culture of presumptive 1-cell embryos with gossypol at 10 microg/mL for 24 h was not sufficient to block development. Furthermore, gossypol did not affect development to the blastocyst stage when 2-cell embryos were cultured with gossypol at 10 microg/mL for 24 h or 7 d. Culture of embryos > or =16 cells with gossypol at 10 microg/mL for 24 h failed to reduce cell number 24 h later or increase blastomere apoptosis. Results indicate that embryonic development can be disrupted by long-term exposure to gossypol at 10 microg/mL and that exposure at the 1-cell stage is required. Thus, it is likely that the deleterious effects of gossypol involve disruption of events at the 1-cell stage and such effects are reversible if gossypol is removed. After the 1-cell stage, gossypol does not affect development because the critical event that gossypol disrupts occurs at the 1-cell stage only or the embryo develops cytoprotective mechanisms after the 1-cell stage that limit actions of gossypol.

Timing of The First Zygotic Cleavage Affects Post-Vitrification Viability of Murine Embryos Produced In Vivo

Background Timing of the first zygotic cleavage is an accurate predictor of embryo quality. Embryos that cleaved early (EC) have been shown to exhibit higher developmental viability compared to those that cleaved at a later period (LC). However, the viability of EC embryos in comparison to LC embryos after vitrification is unknown. The present study aims to investigate the post-vitrification de...

Deleterious actions of gossypol on bovine spermatozoa, oocytes, and embryos.

Gossypol (50 and 100 micrograms/ml) decreased the percentage of sperm that completed the swim-up procedure. This effect was not blocked by glutathione monoethyl ester. Cleavage rates were not different between oocytes inseminated with gossypol-treated spermatozoa (10 or 50 micrograms/ml) and oocytes inseminated with control spermatozoa. Development to the blastocyst stage at Day 7 after insemin...

A Comparative Study of the Cytotoxic Effects and Oxidative Stress of Gossypol on Bovine Kidney and HeLa Cell Lines

Background:  Cotton seed is one of the main sources of protein in animal feeds, containing gossypol, which has been shown to have toxic effects. Results reported by various studies also indicate the anti-cancer effects of gossypol on various cell types. However, its toxic effects on human and animal cells have not been fully established. This study was planned to investigate, for the first time...

A Comparison between the Cytotoxicity Induced by Gossypol in Two Testicular Cell Lines

Background:Gossypol is a yellow toxic pigment from the cottonseed that can cause acute or chronic toxicity in humans and animals by affecting the testicular tissues. Nowadays cottonseed is used as food supplement for ruminants specially the sheep. In this study, two different stem cell lines of testicular tissue including GC1-spg (mouse testis) and SFTF-PI43 (sheep testis) cells were used to ev...

P-50: Evolution of Bovine Embryos Cleavage in Co-Cultuer Mesenchyme Stem Cells (MSCs) Deried from Adipose Tissues

Background Mesenchyme stem cells (MSCs) are one of the widely used sources in tissue engineering and efficacy of cultural environment. In this survey, rat stem cells are used as coculture. Owing to main obstacle of embryo culture in the lab medium, the survival of embryo in lab is low in comparison with that of normal conditions. The purpose of this research is the survey of fertilization and c...
