[PMID: 34623529 PMCID: PMC8501173 DOI: 10.1186/s43141-021-00253-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2021] [Accepted: 09/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Background To develop new breeding technology to improve the breeding ability of bovine, it is the development trend to find the main reason for the occurrence of atresia in these organisms. Transcriptomes of small (100–120 μm) and large (200–220 μm) preantral follicles from cattle and buffalo ovaries were evaluated in vivo and in vitro to understand the transcriptional modulation in preantral follicles that leads to the phenomenon of atresia. Methods The preantral follicles were checked as dead, damage, or live follicles in vivo and in vitro by using trypan blue then bisbenzimide and propidium iodine. Transcriptomes of small (100–120 μm) and large (200–220 μm) preantral follicles of cattle and buffalo were evaluated in vivo and in vitro by microarray and RT-PCR. Healthy preantral follicles were selected based on staining results, and then RNA was extracted from them. Results The viability percentage of preantral follicles in cattle was higher (26.7% and 20%) than buffalo (10%) in vivo and in vitro, respectively. According to the microarray data analysis for cattle preantral follicles, only eleven genes were detected corresponding to five upregulated and six downregulated in large size (200–220 μm) compared to small (100–120 μm) size preantral follicles, while in buffalo, 171 genes were detected (92 upregulated and 79 downregulated) in large size compared to small preantral follicle size. The results of RT-PCR of the selected genes (FASTKD1, BAG2, RHOB, AGTR2, MEF2C, BCL10, G2E3, TM2D1, IGF-I, IGFBP3, PRDX3, and TRIAP1) validated the microarray results. In conclusion, the data of gene expression showed significant differences between small and large sizes in both buffalo and cattle preantral follicles. Conclusion Apoptotic genes were upregulated in the large preantral follicle compared with the small preantral follicles. Moreover, the expression level of these apoptotic genes was significantly upregulated in buffalo than in the cattle. Most of these genes were significantly upregulated in the large buffalo preantral follicle compared with the small size. However, anti-apoptotic genes were upregulated in large cattle preantral follicle and downregulated in large buffalo preantral follicle.

Animals (Basel) 2020; 10:ani10040664. [PMID: 32290459 PMCID: PMC7222836 DOI: 10.3390/ani10040664] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2020] [Revised: 04/02/2020] [Accepted: 04/06/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary During oocyte growth and maturation, the organelle’s morphology of porcine oocytes changed and populated different compartments depending on the differentiation status. Changes in ultrastructural or subcellular level of porcine oocytes during oogenesis/folliculogenesis were observed, potentially leading to future mitochondrion replacement therapies of oocytes. Abstract This study aimed to investigate ultrastructural changes of growing porcine oocytes and in vitro maturated oocytes. Light microscopy was used to characterize and localize the primordial, primary, secondary, and tertiary follicles. During oocyte growth and maturation, the morphology of mitochondria was roundish or ovoid in shape depending on the differentiation state, whereas their mean diameters oscillated between 0.5 and 0.7 µm, respectively, from primary and secondary follicles. Hooded mitochondria were found in the growing oocytes of the tertiary follicles. In addition to the pleomorphism of mitochondria, changes in the appearance of lipid droplets were also observed, along with the alignment of a single layer of cortical granules beneath the oolemma. In conclusion, our study is apparently the first report to portray morphological alterations of mitochondria that possess the hooded structure during the growth phase of porcine oocytes. The spatiotemporal and intrinsic changes during oogenesis/folliculogenesis are phenomena at the ultrastructural or subcellular level of porcine oocytes, highlighting an in-depth understanding of oocyte biology and impetus for future studies on practical mitochondrion replacement therapies for oocytes.

Balance of insulin and FSH concentrations improves the in vitro development of isolated goat preantral follicles in medium containing GH. Anim Reprod Sci 2015; 165:1-10. [PMID: 26723481 DOI: 10.1016/j.anireprosci.2015.10.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2015] [Revised: 10/05/2015] [Accepted: 10/30/2015] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different combinations of insulin and FSH concentrations in culture media containing GH on the in vitro follicle morphology, antrum formation, growth rates, estradiol (E2) production, oocyte viability and maturation as well as gene expression for FSHR, GHR, INSR, CYP19A1, CYP17, 3ßHSD. Secondary follicles were individually cultured for 18 days in a basic medium containing 50ng/mL GH supplemented with low insulin concentration (INS-LW: 10ng/mL) or high insulin concentration (INS-HG: 10μg/mL) alone or with a fixed FSH concentration (FSH100: 100ng/mL) or with increasing FSH concentrations (FSH-SEQ: 100ng/mL, days 0-6; 500ng/mL, days 6-12; 1000ng/mL days 12-18). In the INS-LW treatment was observed a higher (P<0.05) incidence of normal follicles at day 18 of culture. However, overall higher (P<0.05) follicular growth, oocyte diameter and meiotic resumption rates were obtained using INS-HG+FSH 100. The INS-HG and INS-HG+FSH100 treatments showed higher E2 production and mRNA levels for CYP19A1, CYP17, 3βHSD when compared to INS-LW and INS-LW+FSH100. However, the addition of increasing FSH concentration, regardless of insulin concentration, did not improve the follicular growth, meotic resumption, E2 production or gene expression of steroidogenic enzymes when compared with INS-HG+FSH100. In conclusion, in presence of GH, a basic medium supplemented with 10μg/mL insulin and 100μg/mL FSH throughout the culture period, improves follicular and oocyte growth, oocyte meiotic resumption and E2 production from isolated preantral caprine follicles cultured in vitro.
