Cryopreservation has been applied successfully in many mammalian species. Nevertheless, pig embryos, because of their greater susceptibility to cryoinjuries, have shown a reduced developmental competence. The aim of this study was to evaluate the survival status of vitrified-warmed porcine embryos. Forced blastocoele collapse (FBC) and non-FBC blastocysts are vitrified and concomitantly cultured in culture media which were supplemented with/without fetal bovine serum (FBS). Porcine vitrified-warmed embryos were examined in four different methods: group A, non-FBC without FBS; group B, non-FBC with FBS; group C, FBC without FBS; group D, FBC with FBS. After culture, differences in survival rates of blastocysts derived from vitrified-warmed porcine embryos were found in group A~D (39.5 (A) vs 52.5 (B) and 54.8 (C) vs 66.7% (D), respectively, p<0.05). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) level of survived blastocysts was lower in group D than that of another groups (p<0.05). Moreover, total cell number of survived blastocysts was higher in group D than that of other groups (p<0.05). Otherwise, group D showed significantly lower number of apoptotic cells than other groups ($2.0{\pm}1.5$ vs $3.2{\pm}2.1$, $2.8{\pm}1.9$, and $2.7{\pm}1.6$, respectively, p<0.05). Taken together, these results showed that FBS/FBC improves the developmental competence of vitrified porcine embryos by modulating intracellular levels of ROS and the apoptotic index during the vitrification/warming procedure. Therefore, we suggest that FBS and FBC are effective treatment techniques during the vitrification/warming procedures of porcine blastocysts.

문제 정의
The objective of this study was to evaluate the developmental competence and qualities of frozen-thawed porcine blastocysts derived from FBS supplement in porcine embryo culture medium and vitrification by using forced collapse of the blastocoele.
This study showed the survival potential of frozen-thawed porcine blastocysts. The cryopreservation of in vitro porcine embryos has the potential for application in numerous biotechnologies.
제안 방법
In conclusion, the present study is the first report of successful cryopreservation of porcine blastocysts using a FBC and FBS procedure. Moreover, the survival and quality of blastocyst indicated that the FBC and FBS procedure led to satisfactory improvement of porcine in vitro-derived blastocysts.
대상 데이터
38 (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD). A total of 20 blastocysts were examined in each treatment group.
데이터처리
The Student’s t-test was used for comparison between two groups, and Duncan’s multiple range tests was used for multiple comparisons.
이론/모형
All experiments were repeated more than three times. Survival rate of vitrified-thawed porcine IVF blastocysts was analyzed by the Chi-square test. Other all percentage data are presented as the means±SD.
성능/효과
Consistent with these previous reports, our results showed that the incidence of apoptosis rates in the group D was lower than in the group A, B and C (p<0.05).
Taken together, these results suggest that the significant differences between the group D and group A, B and C in embryonic quality were observed in in vitro porcine frozen-thawed blastocysts derived from FBS and FBS (p<0.05).
