Abstract
Objective: To develop a system for the culture of murine preantral ovarian follicles using Human Serum Albumin (HSA) and Human Platelet Lysate (PLTMax).
Methods: Mechanically isolated preantral follicles (N=146) were obtained from Swiss mice and cultured in DMEM:F12 medium for ten days in a 96-well plate with conical bottom. The medium was supplemented with penicillin, streptomycin, and equine chorionic gonadotropin. Additional proteins were tested in 4 test groups: G1: human serum albumin (HSA), G2: human platelet lysate (PLTM), and G3 and G4: HSA + PLTMax at lower and higher concentrations, respectively. Cellular vitality and oocyte morphology were evaluated on day 11 of culture.
Results: The highest follicular growth (3.4 fold) was achieved in HSA (G1), while a significantly lower (1.8 fold) growth was achieved in the presence of PLTM (G2, G4) and even further reduced (1.2 fold) when HSA and PLTM were combined (G3). Cellular vitality was close to 70-80% among the four groups, and the highest number of intact oocytes were found in G1.
Conclusions: PLTM did not improve follicular development and oocyte maturation compared to HSA but preserved cell vitality.
