Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the effects of fetal bovine serum (FBS), bovine serum albumin (BSA) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) on blastocoel formation, total cell number, apoptosis and apoptosis-related gene expression of porcine diploid parthenotes developing in vitro. The addition of 0.4% BSA to the culture medium enhanced the development of 2-cell stage parthenotes to the blastocysts stage (p<0.01). Treatment of FBS reduced cell numbers of blastocysts (p<0.01) and increased the percentage of apoptosis in blastocysts (p<0.001). However, BSA increased cell numbers, only in the presence of EGF reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction revealed that EGF enhanced the mRNA expression of Bcl-xL in the presence of 0.4% BSA but BSA and EGF alone had no effect. However, Treatment of FBS reduced Bcl-xL mRNA expression (p<0.05) and enhanced Bak expression. This result suggests that apoptosis related gene expression is significantly affected by supplements, which may result in alteration of apoptosis and embryo viability of porcine embryos developing in vitro.

이배체 단위발생 돼지 난자를 체외 배양시 배반포 형성 단계에서 FBS (우태아 혈청), BSA (우혈청 알부민), EGF(상피세포 성장인자)를 배양액에 첨가하였을 때 이배체 단위발생 에서 총세포수, 세포사멸 및 세포사멸에 관여하는 유전자의 발현 효과를 조사하고자 본 연구를 수행하였다. 0.4% BSA를 배양액에 첨가 하였을 때 2 세포기 단계 단위발생의 발달은 배반포 까지는 강화 되었다 (p<0.01). FBS 처리 시는 배반포의 세포 수는 감소시켰으나 세포 사멸률은 증가하였다(p<0.01). 하지만 EGF가 존재할 때 BSA 처리는 총 세포수를 증가 시켰다. RT-PCR의 결과에 의하면 EGF는 0.4% BSA가 존재하는 배양액에서는 Bcl-xL mRNA 발현을 증가시키고 BSA와 EGF 가 단독으로 존재 할 때는 효과가 없었다. 하지만 FBS 처리시 Bcl-xL 유전자 발현은 감소하고 Bak 유전자의 발현은 증가시킨다. 이러한 결과 세포사멸에 관여하는 유전자의 발현은 배양액의 첨가물에 따라 유의적으로 영향을 받으며, 돼지 배아의 체외 배양시 세포사멸과 초기발달에 관여함을 시사한다.
