Vitrification transiently alters Oct-4, Bcl2 and P53 expression in mouse morulae but does not affect embryo development in vitro
چکیده انگلیسی


- Mouse morula were cryopreserved by open-pulled straw (OPS) method.
- OPS vitrification caused alteration of mRNA expression of genes (Oct-4, bcl2 and p53).
- The changed genes expression showed no negative impact on the in vitro development of morula.

This study was conducted to determine the impact of vitrification on the expression of genes regulating pluripotency and apoptosis in mouse morulae. The morulae were randomly allocated into three groups: (1) untreated (control), (2) exposed to vitrification solution without freezing (toxicity), or (3) vitrified by open-pulled straw method (vitrification). In vitro development was evaluated by morphology and assessed by the blastocyst rate and the blastocyst total cell number. Gene expression in morulae and blastocysts was assessed by quantitative Real Time-PCR (qRT-PCR) and western blot. The results showed that at morulae stage, the POU class 5 homeobox1 (Oct-4) and B-cell lymphoma2 (Bcl2) mRNA levels of vitrification group were significantly lower (P < 0.05) than those of control. Strikingly, the p53 mRNA level was significantly higher in vitrification group. However, the Oct-4, Bcl2 and p53 mRNA levels in mouse blastocysts were not statistically different. Furthermore, western blot results showed that there was no significant difference in Oct-4, Bcl2 and p53 expression at protein level in mouse morulae among three groups. Additionally, the blastocyst rate (96.67%-100.00%) and the average cell number of blastocysts (89.67-92.33) were similar between all groups. The data demonstrate that vitrification transiently changes the mRNA expression of several key genes in mouse morulae regulating early embryo development but does not affect embryo developmental potential in vitro.
