Abstract

Antioxidants were well known to be essential supplements in the complex media and serve as a reservoir of oxygen. In this study, Hanwoo COCs (cumulus oocytes complexes) were matured and developed in L-cysteine-TCM199 and analyzed metaphase chromosome. Maturation rate of Hanwoo COCs were 73.4%, 94.6% in 0.1% PVA, 0.1 mM L-cysteine, respectively and showed significantly different between the treatments (p<0.05). Blastocyst formation were revealed 20.3%, 10.0% in 5% FBS+TCM199, 0.1 mM L-cysteine+1% BSA, respectively. There were no significant difference among treatment groups. Metaphase chromosome were showed 18.3%, 12.0% in 5% FBS-TCM199, 0.1 mM L-cysteine, respectively and analyzable chromosome were 6.1%, 4.0% and had no differences between the treated groups. In the case of in vitro developmental stages, metaphase chromosome were showed 18.3%, 12.0% in $4{\sim}16$ cells stage, 43.1%, 13.0% in morulae stage and 94.8%, 100.0% in blastocyst stage. These results suggested L-cysteine has beneficial role for in virto maturation and development in Hanwoo COCs.

항산화제는 산소의 저장고로서 무혈청 배양액에서 주요한 작용을 하며, 복합배지에서 유용한 첨가제로 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 한우 체외 수정란의 배양에 있어서 항산화제인 L-cysteine의 작용과 수정란의 발달 단계별 염색체의 분석을 통하여 체외 수정란의 배양 체계를 수립하고자 실시하였다. 한우 난포란의 체외 성숙은 0.1% PVA, 0.1 mM L-cysteine 첨가 시 체외 성숙율은 73.4%, 94.6%으로 각각 나타냈으며, 처리간에 유의적인 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 체외 발달율은 20.3%, 10.0%로 5% FBS+TCM199, 0.1 mM L-cysteine+1% BSA 첨가구에서 각각 나타났으며, 처리간에 유의적인 차이는 보이지 않았다. 배양액의 종류에 따른 염색체 분석 결과는 중기상의 수정란은 18.3%, 12.0%를 보였으며, 분석 가능 수정란 수는 6.1%, 4.0%로 5% FBS+TCM199, 0.1mM L-cysteine 첨가구에서 각각 나타났고, 60, XX 2개, 60XY 1개가 5% FBS+TCM199 처리구에서, 60, XX 2개가 0.1 mM L-cysteine 처리구에서 확인되었고, 처리간에 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 수정란의 발달 단계별 염색체 분석 결과는 $4{\sim}16$세포기는 5% FBS-TCM199 배양액과 0.1 mM L-cysteine을 첨가한 배양액에서 18.3, 12.0%의 염색체 중기상을 확인할 수 있었고, 상실기에서는 43.1, 13.0%의 염색체 중기상을 보였으며, 배반포기의 경우는 94.8, 100.0%의 염색체 중기상을 보여 발달 단계가 진행될수록 염색체 중기 상이 많이 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 항산화제인 L-cysteine은 한우 난포란의 체외 성숙 및 발달에 중요한 인자임을 확인하였다.
