Abstract
The risk of developmental block in mammal’s embryos is high during in vitro as compare to in vivo environment because the in vitro embryo-culture systems are suboptimal. During in vitro-culture the balance between ROS production and elimination is disturbed and may lead to 2-cell block in mouse embryos [1]. In the current study, we investigated the effects of Glu as anti-developmental block during IVC on ZGA and MZT on mouse embryos. The mouse embryos were divided into control and different level of Glu treated group. The cleavage rate was determined, the ROS and GSH level was investigated using DCHF-DA and CMF2HC respectively. The mRNA expression level of ZGA marker gene such as Eif-1α, Muerv l, Zscan4d and Hsp70.1 was analyzed among the groups using RT-PCR. The transition rate from 2-cell to 4-cell was significantly higher in 6mmol/L Glu treated group as compare to control and others treated groups. No significant difference was recorded in the level of ROS and GSH during MZT stage among the different groups. The mRNA expression level of ZGA marker gene was significantly increased at middle and late stage in 6mmol/L Glu treated group as compare to control and others treated groups. In conclusion, this study shows that the concentration of 6mmol/L Glu could maintain the dynamic balance of GSH and ROS, increase the expression of ZGA marker gene and maintain its high expression pattern of time series, directly participate in the ZGA activated process; ultimately reduce the risk of developmental block to ensure the successful completion of MZT.
