Project description:The present study mainly aimed to investigate the effect of vitrification temperature (VT) and cryoprotective agent concentrations (CPAs) on the mRNA transcriptome of bovine immature oocytes (BIOs). Cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) were randomly divided into the following five groups: fresh oocytes (control), oocytes vitrified in liquid helium (LHe; -269℃) with 5.6 M CPAs (LHe 5.6 M), oocytes vitrified in LHe with 6.6 M CPAs (LHe 6.6 M), oocytes vitrified in liquid nitrogen (LN; -196℃) with 5.6 M CPAs (LN 5.6 M), and oocytes vitrified in LN with 6.6 M CPAs (LN 6.6 M). mRNA transcriptomes of each sample were analyzed by Smart-seq4, and the differentially expressed genes (DGEs) were detected by edgeR (p≤0.05; fold-change≥2). Compared with the control group, 505 DGEs were detected with 342 up-regulated and 163 down-regulated genes in LHe 5.6 M; 609 DGEs were detected with 493 up-regulated and 116 down-regulated gene in LHe 6.6 M; 218 DGEs were determined with 101 up-regulated and 117 down-regulated genes in LN 5.6 M; and 221 DGEs were detected with 104 up-regulated and 117 down-regulated genes in LN 6.6 M. LHe vitrification affected the mRNA transcriptome of vitrified BIOs mainly by up-regulating gene expression. Reduced CPAs (5.6 M) decreased the effect of vitrification on mRNA transcriptome when LHe vitrification was used. Among all the DGEs closely related to bovine immature oocytes, the genes possibly related to VT were ND2, MPV17L2, PIF1, LPIN1, IMP3, BRD1, DCTN3, DERA, ATP7B, NEK5, HVCN1 and MARK2. The gene that may be associated with CPAs is CC2D2A. Genes that may be affected by both VT and CPAs were PGK1, SLC7A3, FITM2, NPM3, ISCU, CWC15 and PSAP. DERA was up-regulated when reduced VT (-269 °C) was used, which may have contributed to the recovery and stress prevention of vitrified oocyte.

Project description:Vitrification cryopreservation of oocytes is an enabling technology for assisted reproductive technology. However, many factors in the vitrification process, such as the toxicity of cryoprotectant, osmotic stress, ice crystal formation during rewarming, will cause fatal damage to oocytes, thus affecting the embryo developmental potential and subsequent clinical outcomes. Therefore, oocyte vitrification still faces significant challenges. Recent studies have shown that LEA protein has the potential to improve oocyte cryopreservation, while the molecular mechanism by which it exerts protective effects is still unclear. Therefore, we have systematically investigated the effects of LEA proteins on the vitrification cryopreservation and their molecular mechanisms. Results revealed that the proteins improved the developmental potential of human oocytes following cryopreservation, mostly by downregulating FOS genes and reducing oxidative stress. Moreover, the synergistic cryoprotection of LEA proteins by inhibiting the formation of ice crystals was given full play. This study provides a new strategy for high-quality cryopreservation of human oocytes.

Project description:In cattle, almost all fully grown vesicle stage oocytes (GV) have the ability to resume meisos, develop to Metaphase II stage (MII), support fertilization and progress through the early embryonic cycles in vitro. Yet without intensive selection, the majority fail to develop to the blastocyst stage. Using the Affymetrix Bovine Genome Array, global mRNA expression analysis of immature (GV) and in vitro matured (IVM) bovine oocytes was carried out to characterize the transcriptome of the bovine oocyte and to identify the key pathways associated with oocyte meiotic maturation and developmental potential. Immature and in vitro matured bovine oocytes were collected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix GeneChip Bovine Genome array. Careful removal of cumulus and selection of oocytes was carried out under the stereo microscope in order to examine the actual cumulus-free temporal oocyte gene expression profiles. Immature oocytes at time 0 h and in vitro matured oocytes at 24 h were collected for analysis.

Project description:The aim of this study was to analyze transcriptome profiles with RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) in metaphase II horse oocytes after vitrification before and after in vitro maturation (IVM). To do so, transcriptome profile of three groups were compared: (1) oocytes vitrified immature, warmed, and in vitro matured (VGV), (2) in vitro matured and vitrified (VMAT), and (3) fresh oocytes (CONTROL).

Project description:Embryo vitrification involves exposure to high concentrations of cryoprotectants and osmotic stress during cooling and warming. A multitude of these factors have the potential of affecting gene expression. In this study, in vitro produced bovine embryos at the blastocyst stage were submitted to vitrification. Four recipients each were used for transferring non-vitrified (80) and vitrified (80) embryos. Twelve non-vitrified and nine vitrified viable day-14 (D14) embryos were recovered by uterine flushing. RNA-seq analysis of whole embryo or isolated trophectoderm (TE) from vitrified and fresh recovered D14 embryos revealed a total of 927 genes changed their expression as a result of vitrification, among them 782 and 145 genes were up- and down-regulated, respectively. In TE isolates, vitrification resulted in 4,096 and 280 up- and down-regulated genes, respectively. In addition, we found 671 and 61 genes commonly up- and down-regulated in both vitrified whole embryo and TE. Commonly up-regulated pathways by vitrification included epithelial adherens junctions, sirtuin signaling, germ cell-sertoli cell junction, ATM signaling, NER, and protein ubiquitination pathways. The commonly down-regulated pathways included EIF2 signaling, oxidative phosphorylation, mitochondrial dysfunction, regulation of eIF4 and p70S6K signaling, mTOR signaling, sirtuin singling, and NER pathways. Our analysis identified specific pathways and implicated specific gene expression patterns important to cryopreservation affecting embryo developmental competence.

Project description:We optimised an in vitro culture model for mouse oocytes starting from immature oocytes to get mature oocytes and investigated the effect of oxygen concentrations on the cultured oocytes (5 % vs 20% oxygen). The cultured oocytes were size-selected in both conditions. We generated expression and methylation profiling (RNA-Seq, RRBS, PBAT) by high throughput sequencing from these size selected oocytes and compared the results with in vivo size oocytes. Our observations reveal changes in DNA methylation and transcripts between oocytes cultured in vitro with different oxygen concentrations and in vivo grown murine oocytes. Oocytes grown under 20% O2 had a higher correlation with in vivo oocytes for DNA methylation and transcription demonstrating that higher oxygen concentration is beneficial for the oocyte maturation in ex-vivo culture condition.
