In this study, we reported that near-infrared light, administered in vitro, efficaciously improves the quality of post-ovulatory aging (POA) and reproductive aged oocytes by recovering mitochondrial activity. Near-infrared light has the capacity to ameliorate abnormalities in mitochondrial membrane potential, optimize mitochondrial distribution, augment ATP synthesis, and modulate the expression of mitochondrial-related genes. It can consequently enhance the quality of oocytes by reducing the reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, improving the abnormal distribution of spindles and maintaining the fertilization ability. Moreover, transcriptome analysis also shows that the beneficial effect of near-infrared light on POA and reproductive aged oocytes is mediated by restoration of mitochondrial function. Collectively, our data reveal that the near-infrared light treatment, especially of 810 nm or 950 nm with a cumulative dosage of 1.5 J*cm-2, is a feasible approach to protect oocytes from POA and reproductive aged deterioration, contributing to the improvement of reproductive outcomes of aged women and assisted reproductive technology.</p>","PeriodicalId":8965,"journal":{"name":"Biology of Reproduction","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144274183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Along the southern coast of Hokkaido, Japan, two types of interspecies hybrids have been identified among three Hexagrammos species: Hexagrammos octogrammus (Hoc), H. otakii (Hot), and Hexagrammos agrammus (Hag). These hybrids are characterized by fertile females reproducing via hybridogenesis. During oogenesis of hybrids, the paternal haploid genome (Hag or Hot) is excluded, while only the maternal genome (Hoc) retains and transmits to gametes. This study investigates the mechanism of genome elimination in Hexagrammos hybrids through a comparative analysis of gonadal development in one-year-old juveniles and adult individuals of hybrids and their parental species. Comparative genomic hybridization on whole-mount gonads from Hoc/Hot and (Hoc/Hag) × Hag hybrids revealed gonocytes containing genomes of both parental species and gonocytes with only Hoc genome, suggesting that genome elimination occurs during early gametogenesis. In Hoc but not in Hot or Hag species, we observed heterochromatin foci enriched with H3K9me3 epigenetic histone modification. Similar foci were found in hybrids, confirming the presence of Hoc genome in their gonocytes. Furthermore, we detected micronuclei in the cytoplasm of gonocytes in parental species and hybrids. Although micronuclei were rare, their frequency was significantly higher in hybrids compared to parental species. Within micronuclei in Hoc/Hot and (Hoc/Hag) × Hag hybrids, we identified Hot and Hag chromosomes or their fragments, respectively. Thus, in Hexagrammos hybrids, genome elimination likely occurs during early gametogenic stages and is accompanied by micronuclei formation.</p>","PeriodicalId":8965,"journal":{"name":"Biology of Reproduction","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144233077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) interacting with human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-C dictate a balance between activation and inhibition, shaping dNK cell adaptability to maternal-fetal genetic variation. The NKG2A-HLA-E axis establishes a foundational inhibitory checkpoint, ensuring immune tolerance through metabolic and functional programming.

This review synthesizes the diverse mechanisms of NK cell education, highlighting how specific receptor-ligand interactions regulate dNK cell function and maternal-fetal immune adaptation.

However, many of the procedures used clinically lack a basis of long-term studies to ensure their safety. Though in vitro fertilization (IVF) is largely safe, follow up studies have shown that IVF-conceived children may show signs of altered fat deposition, increased fasting glucose and increased blood pressure. These results are, however, limited by low number of patients and different ART variables (different length of embryo culture, or different types of culture media). Results of studies using animal models have confirmed many of these results and shown that more stressful culture conditions result in disrupted adult phenotypes. Presently, it is unclear if culture conditions such as duration and day of transfer might affect adult health. To investigate the hypothesis that length of embryo culture could affect adult phenotype, we generated mice by IVF and transferred them at the cleavage stage (IVF8C group) or at the blastocyst stage, (IVFBL group) and studied adult phenotype. Results were compared to those obtained with naturally conceived animals flushed out of the uterus and transferred to recipient (FB group).

When compared to 31 and 57 μM methionine, methionine deficiency (0 μM) reduced the percentage of zygotes developing into blastocysts by day 7.5 and the proportion of blastocysts that hatched at day 7.5, 8.5, and 9.5. Blastocysts produced without methionine developed slowly, had fewer total, CDX2+(trophectoderm), and SOX2+(inner cell mass) cells, and exhibited higher apoptosis and lipid content. Increasing methionine from 31 to 57 μM did not improve blastocyst development or hatching but increased CDX2+cells number and reduced apoptosis and lipid content. Methionine concentration had no effect on survival to vitrification. In conclusion, the absence of methionine reduces the competence of zygotes to become a blastocyst and has detrimental effects on the properties of those blastocysts. A higher methionine concentration increases trophectoderm cell number, reduces apoptosis, and lowers lipid accumulation.
