چکیده انگلیسی
The objective was to determine whether adding L-carnitine in IVM/IVC medium enhanced maturation and developmental competence of porcine oocytes in vitro. Oocyte maturation rates did not differ significantly among groups supplemented with 0, 0.25, 0.5, or 1 mg/mL of L-carnitine added during IVM (although 2 mg/mL of L-carnitine reduced maturation rate). Compared with control oocytes, those treated with 0.5 mg/mL of L-carnitine during IVM had greater (P < 0.05) rates of blastocyst formation after parthenogenetic activation, and these blastocysts had less (P < 0.05) apoptosis. Adding 0.5 mg/mL of L-carnitine during IVM also significantly reduced intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), and increased glutathione (GSH) concentrations. With or without glucose supplementation, 0.5 mg/mL of L-carnitine in the IVM medium significantly hastened nuclear maturation of oocytes. Moreover, supplementing the IVM medium with either glucose or L-carnitine increased (P < 0.05) percentages of oocytes that reached the metaphase II (MII) stage, relative to a control group. Final maturation rates in IVM medium containing either glucose or L-carnitine were not significantly different. Adding L-carnitine (0 to 2 mg/mL) to IVC medium for activated porcine oocytes did not significantly affect development. However, 0.5 mg/mL of L-carnitine in IVC medium significantly reduced reactive oxygen species levels and apoptosis in activated blastocysts, although glutathione concentrations were not significantly altered. In conclusion, adding L-carnitine during IVM/IVC improved developmental potential of porcine oocytes, and also the quality of parthenogenetic embryos, probably by accelerating nuclear maturation, and preventing oxidative damage and apoptosis.
