In vitro development of canine somatic cell nuclear transfer embryos in different culture media

چکیده
The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of three different culture media on the development of canine somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) embryos. Canine cloned embryos were cultured in modified synthetic oviductal fluid (mSOF), porcine zygote medium-3 (PZM-3), or G1/G2 sequential media. Our results showed that the G1/G2 media yielded significantly higher morula and blastocyst development in canine SCNT embryos (26.1% and 7.8%, respectively) compared to PZM-3 (8.5% and 0%or mSOF (2.3% and 0%) media. In conclusion, this study suggests that blastocysts can be produced more efficiently using G1/G2 media to culture canine SCNT embryos.

P-115: Melatonin Increases Developmental Rate of In Vitro Mouse Somatic Cell Nuclear
Background: The beneficial effect of supplementing culture medium with melatonin has been reported during in vitro embryo development of species such as mouse, bovine and porcine. However, the effect of melatonin on the mouse somatic cell nuclear transfer remained unknown. Materials and Methods: In this study, we assessed the effects of various concentrations of melatonin (10-6 to 10-12 M) on t...
متن کاملComparative stepwise pattern of reactive oxygen species production during in vitro development of fertilized and nuclear transferred goat embryos
Objective A unique feature of embryo metabolism is production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). It is well established that during in vitro culture, ROS levels increase over normal ranges observed for embryos developed in vivo. This study evaluates and compares the stepwise pattern of ROS production during in vitro development of reconstructed goat embryos produced by zona-free method of somati...
متن کاملO-3: Effect of Melatonin Treatment on Developmental Potential of Somatic Cell Nuclear- Transferred Mouse Oocytes In Vitro
Background Melatonin (N-acetyl-5- methoxytryptamine) is mainly synthesized and secreted in the pineal gland, ovary, testes, bone marrow, retina and lens in mammalian species. It is involved in the detoxification of ROS and protects embryos from oxidative damage. Melatonin acts as a potential free radical scavenger, including peroxyl radical and hydroxyl radical. In addition, it can stimulate th...
متن کاملI-12: Nuclear Reprogramming in Bovin Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer
Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT or cloning) returns a differentiated cell to a totipotent status; a process termed nuclear reprogramming. Reproductive cloning has potential applications in both agriculture and biomedicine, but is limited by low efficiency. To understand the deficiencies of nuclear reprogramming, our research has focused on both candidate genes and global gene expression pat...

Background: The assisted reproductive techniques (ARTs) such as in vitro fertilization, embryo transfer and cryopreservation of gametes have considerably contributed to the development of biomedical sciences in addition to improved breeding in domestic animals and infertility treatment in humans. However, ARTs used in canine species have strictly limited utility when compared with other mammali...
