概要 The effect of removing cytoplasmic lipid droplets (delipidation) at the 2-cell and developmental stages on the survival of porcine somatic cell nuclear-transferred blastocysts developed from the enucleated oocytes receiving somatic cells from kidney of an adult female after cryopreservation was examined. Vitrification was performed using the Cryoloop method with a small volume of medium (0.5 μl). To select 2-cell embryos with a high potential to develop into blastocysts, the relationship between the timing of the first cleavage and the developmental potential was examined. The potential of nuclear-transferred oocytes to develop into blastocysts in the intermediate-cleavage group (20-24 h after activation, 25%) was slightly or significantly (P < 0.05) higher than that in fast-cleavage (<20 h after activation, 13%) and slow-cleavage groups (>24 h after activation, 5%). Most non-delipidated blastocysts did not survive after thawing (0% for early-stage and 9% for advanced-stage blastocysts), but the survival rate of delipidated blastocysts 48 h after culture (54% and 72%, respectively) was not significantly different from that of non-vitrified blastocysts (80% and 92%, respectively). The survival rate of advanced-stage blastocysts after vitrification was slightly higher than that of early-stage blastocysts. The present study demonstrates that somatic cell nuclear-transferred porcine blastocysts developed from embryos selected at the 2-cell stage can be preserved by vitrification with a small volume of medium if the lipid droplets of the embryos are first removed. © 2007.
