従来より、優良な家畜の安定的な生産や希少動物の保護や不妊治療などのために、動物の雄から採取した精子と雌から採取した卵子とを人工的に授精させる人工授精が行われている。 Conventionally, artificial insemination has been performed to artificially inseminate sperm collected from animal males and ovum collected from females for stable production of excellent livestock, protection of rare animals and infertility treatment, etc. Yes.
この人工授精において、精子や卵子や授精卵は、人工授精用培地を用いて培養されている（たとえば、特許文献１、非特許文献１参照。）。 In this artificial insemination, sperm, ovum and fertilized egg are cultured using a medium for artificial insemination (for example, refer to Patent Document 1 and Non-Patent Document 1).
従来より、人工授精においては、貴重な精子や卵子を用いて人工的に授精させることから、その授精率を向上させて効率良く人工授精を行えるようにすることが望まれている（非特許文献１参照。）。 Conventionally, in artificial insemination, since artificial insemination is performed using precious sperm and eggs, it is desired to improve the insemination rate so that artificial insemination can be performed efficiently (non-patent literature). 1).
そのため、本発明者らは、既存の人口授精用培地を用いた人工授精において、授精率を向上させる培養条件を鋭意研究し、本発明を成すに至った。 For this reason, the present inventors have intensively studied culture conditions for improving the insemination rate in artificial insemination using an existing artificial insemination medium, and have achieved the present invention.
請求項１に係る本発明は、甘草（licorice、リコリス）エキス水溶液を含有することを特徴とする人工授精用培地を提供するものである。 The present invention according to claim 1 provides a medium for artificial insemination characterized by containing an aqueous solution of licorice (licorice) extract.
また、請求項２に係る本発明は、甘草エキス水溶液を含有する人工授精用培地を用いて卵子と精子とを授精させることを特徴とする人工授精方法を提供するものである。 The present invention according to claim 2 provides an artificial insemination method characterized in that an egg and sperm are inseminated using an artificial insemination medium containing an aqueous solution of licorice extract.
また、請求項３に係る本発明は、甘草エキス水溶液を含有する人工授精用培地を用いて精子を培養し、培養した精子を前記甘草エキス水溶液とともに卵子を培養した人工授精用培地に添加して精子と卵子とを授精させることを特徴とする人工授精方法を提供するものである。 Further, the present invention according to claim 3 cultivates sperm using an artificial insemination medium containing an aqueous solution of licorice extract, and adds the cultured sperm to an artificial insemination medium in which eggs are cultured together with the aqueous solution of licorice extract. An artificial insemination method characterized by fertilizing a sperm and an egg is provided.
本発明では、人工授精において甘草エキス水溶液を含有する人工授精用培地を用いることで、授精率を向上させることができる。 In the present invention, the rate of insemination can be improved by using a medium for artificial insemination containing an aqueous solution of licorice extract in artificial insemination.
以下に、本発明に係る人工授精用培地及び同人工授精用培地を用いた人工授精方法について説明する。 The artificial insemination medium and the artificial insemination method using the artificial insemination medium according to the present invention will be described below.
本発明では、動物から採取した精子を人工授精用培地で培養する。 In the present invention, sperm collected from an animal is cultured in a medium for artificial insemination.
その際に、単に既存（公知）の人工授精用培地を用いて精子を培養してもよく、また、甘草の根から抽出した粉末状の甘草エキスを水に溶かして甘草エキス水溶液を生成し、その甘草エキス水溶液を既存（公知）の人工授精用培地に添加して、甘草エキス水溶液を含有する人工授精用培地を用いて精子を培養するようにしてもよい。 At that time, sperm may be cultured simply using an existing (known) artificial insemination medium, or a powdered licorice extract extracted from licorice root is dissolved in water to produce an aqueous solution of licorice extract. The licorice extract aqueous solution may be added to an existing (known) artificial insemination medium, and the sperm may be cultured using the artificial insemination medium containing the licorice extract aqueous solution.
また、本発明では、動物から採取した卵子を人工授精用培地で培養する。 In the present invention, an egg collected from an animal is cultured in an artificial insemination medium.
その際に、単に既存（公知）の人工授精用培地を用いて卵子を培養してもよく、また、精子と同様に、甘草の根から抽出した粉末状の甘草エキスを水に溶かして甘草エキス水溶液を生成し、その甘草エキス水溶液を既存（公知）の人工授精用培地に添加して、甘草エキス水溶液を含有する人工授精用培地を用いて卵子を培養するようにしてもよい。 At that time, the egg may be cultured simply using an existing (known) artificial insemination medium. Similarly to the sperm, a powdered licorice extract extracted from the root of licorice is dissolved in water, and an aqueous solution of licorice extract is obtained. The licorice extract aqueous solution may be added to an existing (known) artificial insemination medium, and the ovum may be cultured using the artificial insemination medium containing the licorice extract aqueous solution.
そして、本発明では、人工授精用培地で培養した精子と卵子とを同一の人工授精用培地で培養して、精子と卵子とを授精させるようにする。 In the present invention, the sperm and the egg cultured in the artificial insemination medium are cultured in the same artificial insemination medium so that the sperm and the egg are inseminated.
その際に、精子と卵子とを一緒に培養する人工授精用培地として、甘草の根から抽出した粉末状の甘草エキスを水に溶かした甘草エキス水溶液を添加した人工授精用培地を用いて培養するようにしてもよい。 At this time, as an artificial insemination medium for culturing sperm and eggs together, it should be cultured using an artificial insemination medium to which an aqueous solution of licorice extract obtained by dissolving powdered licorice extract extracted from licorice root in water is added. It may be.
或いは、甘草エキス水溶液を含有する人工授精用培地を用いて精子を培養し、卵子を培養した既存の人工授精用培地に精子とともに甘草エキス水溶液をも添加し、甘草エキス水溶液が添加された既存の人工授精用培地を用いて卵子を培養するようにしてもよい。 Alternatively, culturing sperm using an artificial insemination medium containing an aqueous solution of licorice extract, adding the licorice extract aqueous solution together with the sperm to the existing artificial insemination medium in which the egg is cultured, and adding the existing licorice extract aqueous solution You may make it culture | cultivate an egg using the culture medium for artificial insemination.
このように、本発明は、基本的には既存の人口授精用培地を用いて既存の人口授精方法によって動物の精子と卵子とを人工的に授精させるものであるが、既存の人口授精用培地に甘草エキス水溶液を添加して、甘草エキス水溶液を含有する人工授精用培地を用いて精子や卵子や授精卵の培養を行うようにしたものである。 As described above, the present invention is basically for artificially inseminating animal sperm and ovum by an existing artificial insemination method using an existing artificial insemination medium. An aqueous solution of licorice extract is added to the cultivated sperm, ovum or fertilized egg using an artificial insemination medium containing the aqueous solution of licorice extract.
甘草エキス水溶液を含有する人工授精用培地でマウス（ＢＡＬＢ／ｃＡ）の精子を培養した後に、培養した精子を甘草エキス水溶液とともにマウス（ＢＡＬＢ／ｃＡ）の卵子を培養した人工授精用培地に添加して精子と卵子とを授精させた場合の試験結果を表１及び図１に示す。 After culturing mouse (BALB / cA) sperm in an artificial insemination medium containing an aqueous solution of licorice extract, the cultured sperm is added to an artificial insemination medium in which an egg of mouse (BALB / cA) is cultured together with an aqueous solution of licorice extract. Table 1 and FIG. 1 show the test results when fertilizing sperm and eggs.
この試験では、比較のために、甘草エキス水溶液を添加していない人工授精用培地と甘草エキス水溶液を添加した人工授精用培地とを用いて同一のマウス（検体Ａ〜検体Ｅ）から採取した精子と卵子とを人工的に授精させて行った。 In this test, for comparison, sperm collected from the same mouse (sample A to sample E) using an artificial insemination medium to which no licorice extract aqueous solution was added and an artificial insemination medium to which an licorice extract aqueous solution was added. And eggs were artificially inseminated.
その結果、検体Ａでは、甘草エキス水溶液を添加していない人工授精用培地を用いた場合には、授精率が0.0%であったのに対して、甘草エキス水溶液を添加した人工授精用培地を用いた場合には、授精率が15.6%に向上した。同様に、検体Ｂでは、8.0%から31.3%に、検体Ｃでは、43.5%から84.0%に、検体Ｄでは、18.5%から38.1%に、検体Ｅでは、4.2%から47.1%に向上した。 As a result, in Sample A, when an artificial insemination medium to which no licorice extract aqueous solution was added was used, the insemination rate was 0.0%, whereas an artificial insemination medium to which an licorice extract aqueous solution was added was used. When used, the insemination rate improved to 15.6%. Similarly, Sample B improved from 8.0% to 31.3%, Sample C from 43.5% to 84.0%, Sample D from 18.5% to 38.1%, and Sample E from 4.2% to 47.1%.
このように、甘草エキス水溶液を含有する人工授精用培地を用いた場合には、いずれの検体でも授精率が著しく増加することがわかった。なお、甘草エキス水溶液を含有する人工授精用培地を用いて精子及び卵子又は卵子のみを培養しても同様に授精率を向上させることができる。 Thus, when the artificial insemination medium containing the licorice extract aqueous solution was used, it was found that the insemination rate was remarkably increased in any specimen. It should be noted that the fertilization rate can be similarly improved by culturing sperm and eggs or eggs only using an artificial insemination medium containing an aqueous solution of licorice extract.
以上に説明したように、本発明では、人工授精において甘草エキス水溶液を含有する人工授精用培地を用いることで、授精率を向上させることができる。 As described above, in the present invention, the rate of insemination can be improved by using an artificial insemination medium containing an aqueous solution of licorice extract in artificial insemination.
そのため、甘草エキス水溶液を含有する人工授精用培地を用いて動物から採取した貴重な精子と卵子とを人工的に授精させることで、優良な家畜の安定的な生産や希少動物の保護や不妊治療などを行うことができる。 Therefore, stable production of excellent livestock, protection of rare animals, and fertility treatment are achieved by artificially inseminating precious sperm and eggs collected from animals using an artificial insemination medium containing an aqueous solution of licorice extract. And so on.
