Carnosine supplementation in cryopreservation solution improved frozen-thawed bovine embryo viability
Cryopreservation adversely affects embryo quality and viability in vitro.We investigated the effects of cryopreservation solutions supplemented with the antioxidant carnosine on frozen-thawed bovine embryo viability. Bovine blastocysts were produced in vitro and cryopreserved using slow freezing. The rates of re-expanded and hatched blastocysts in the 50 μg/ml carnosine-supplemented group at 4, 24, and 48 h after thawing were higher than those in the control (P< 0.05) group. In frozen-thawed embryos, cryopreservation solution supplemented with carnosine (50 μg/ml) significantly reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production(P < 0.05), decreased TUNEL-positive apoptotic cells (P< 0.05), and increased the mRNA expression of BCL2 (P< 0.05), an apoptosis suppressor gene. The expression of translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 20 (TOMM20), which is involved in protein mitochondrial transport, in the carnosine (50 μg/ml)-treated embryos was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). ATP production in frozen-thawed embryos in the 50 μg/ml carnosine-supplemented group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P< 0.05), however no significant difference in the total number of cells per embryo among the groups was observed. These results suggest that supplementing the cryopreservation solution with carnosine can improve the viability of frozen-thawed bovine embryos by reducing oxidative damage.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
