Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for preventing ovarian senescence and improving embryo development using melatonin,

The present invention relates to a method for preventing aging of an oocyte and improving an embryo development rate using the melatonin, and more particularly, to a method for improving an aging oocyte by treating melatonin to reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) And to a method for preventing aging of the oocyte by increasing the expression of actin filaments of senescent oocyte and improving the embryo development rate.

In vitro maturation of oocytes is the basis for transgenic cloned embryos. Therefore, a good in vitro maturation system can be regarded as the basis for transgenic cloned embryos. In particular, it is an important task to prevent aging of oocytes because transformed nuclear transfer embryos take time in micro manipulation process. In addition, it is very difficult to synchronize the maturation of oocytes in the in vitro maturation process of pig ova, and it causes the aging process of the oocyte to be easily induced, thereby reducing or losing developmental capacity. The best in vitro maturation system of the egg is still under development.

Melatonin is a molecule related to the cycle of biological response, also known as N-acetyl-5-methoxy tryptamine. In mammals, melatonin is synthesized from the pineal gland present in the brain and secreted into the blood. It adjusts the rhythm of the body and makes us sleep at night. Depression occurs when the amount of synthesis is too much or works in vivo for a long time, and when the amount of synthesis is low, insomnia is caused. Melatonin is derived from tryptophan and may be synthesized in the same way as the bone marrow cell lymphocyte epithelial cells. Melatonin is known to regulate the West cadadian rhythm, such as photoperiod, by its secreted secretory properties in the dark, to regulate the cell cycle in mammals, and to show strong resistance to oxidative stress and apoptosis.

In vitro matured oocytes develop aging in comparison with matured oocytes in the body, poor quality, and low fertility after fertilization. This aged oocyte also affects the developmental ability of fertilized and nuclear-substituted embryos, which is fatal in the early pregnancy and is also likely to be abnormal in birth. Aging of ova is a very complex physiological process, which is also related to cytology and molecular biology. Currently known information is known to cause the accumulation of oxidative shock in the cell, which leads to such inhibition of development. Recently, melatonin has been shown to be multifunctional and has the highest antioxidant effect, so it has been found that melatonin is used when mammalian eggs are matured in vitro.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the following examples. However, the following examples are provided to aid understanding of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited to the following examples.

[ Example  1] The effect of melatonin concentration on in vitro maturation embryo Development rate  Research

To determine the developmental rate of melanocytes to blastocysts in vitro, we used 10 -15 M (1 fM), 10 -12 M (1 pM), and 10 -9 M ), 10 -6 M (1 uM), and 10 -3 M (1 mM) of melatonin to induce in vitro maturation. After 24 hours, only mature-stage MII-stage oocytes with the first polar body released were inoculated with 1 × 10 6 / mL spermatozoa to induce in vitro maturation. After 8 days of incubation, developmental rates to blastocysts were examined. The results are shown in FIG. .

1, the developmental rates of melatonin 10 -6 M (1 uM) and 10 -3 M (1 mM) to the blastocyst significantly increased compared to the other treatment groups and the control group.

[ Example  2] Stages of In Vitro Maturation Embryos Treated with Melatonin Developmental  Research

In order to confirm the developmental stage of each embryo development stage, in vitro maturation stage of the oocyte culture, melatonin treated in vitro, and in vitro fertilized embryos were cultured in the in vitro culture medium, and on days 1, 2, 5 and 8, The developmental rate to abortion, blastocyst and blastocyst was investigated. The results are shown in Fig.

2, there was no significant difference between the melatonin-treated group and the control group in the 2-cell stage and 4-cell stage, but the development rate of the blastocyst and blastocyst was significantly increased in the melatonin-treated group compared to the control group.

[ Example  3] Anti-aging and embryo development rate of in vitro maturation oocytes treated with melatonin

In vitro maturation of melanoma was induced by in vitro maturation of 1 oM melatonin, and melatonin was treated for 22, 30, and 44 hours for the in vitro maturation of oocytes. The anti-aging mechanism was investigated, and the results are shown in Figs. 3 to 7.

FIG. 3 shows changes in ROS of oocytes matured after melatonin treatment, FIG. 4 shows the degree of DNA damage of oocytes matured in vitro when melatonin was treated, and FIG. , Indicating a reduction in the percentage of abnormal oocytes during in vitro maturation. FIG. 6 shows the effect of melatonin on actin filament expression, abnormal microtubule formation and surface granule release of aged oocytes, and FIG. 7 shows the effect of melatonin on the development of oocytes in vitro and cell death in blastocysts .

Melatonin reduced ROS in in vitro maturation aged oocytes (see FIG. 3), and reduced DNA damage in vitro maturation aged oocytes (see FIG. 4), reducing the rate of abnormal oocytes during in vitro maturation of oocytes (See Fig. 5). In addition, melatonin increased actin filament expression in senescent oocytes, decreased the formation of abnormal microtubules, and reduced the release of superficial granules (see FIG. 6). In addition, melatonin improved the in vitro development rate of aged oocytes and decreased cell death in blastocysts (see Fig. 7).

Thus, it can be seen that melatonin prevents aging of in vitro maturation oocytes and improves embryo development rate.
