In Vivo Differentiation

We established and maintained somatic cell nuclear transfer embryo-derived stem-like cells (SCNT-eSLCs) from the traditional Korean beef cattle species, HanWoo (Bos taurus coreanae). Each SCNT blastocyst was placed individually on a feeder layer with culture medium containing three inhibitors of differentiation (3i). Primary colonies formed after 2–3 days of culture and the intact colonies were passaged every 5–6 days. The cells in each colony showed embryonic stem cell-like morphologies with a distinct boundary and were positive to alkaline phosphatase staining. Immunofluorescence and reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction analyses also confirmed that these colonies expressed pluripotent markers. The colonies were maintained over 50 passages for more than 270 days. The cells showed normal karyotypes consisting of 60 chromosomes at Passage 50. Embryoid bodies were formed by suspension culture to analyse in vitro differentiation capability. Marker genes representing the differentiation into three germ layers were expressed. Typical embryonal carcinoma was generated after injecting cells under the testis capsule of nude mice, suggesting that the cultured cells may also have the potential of in vivo differentiation. In conclusion, we generated eSLCs from SCNT bovine embryos, using a 3i system that sustained stemness, normal karyotype and pluripotency, which was confirmed by in vitro and in vivo differentiation.

In somatic cell nuclear transfer, serum starvation is a widely used method to synchronize donor cells at the quiescent stage (Go) of the cell cycle. However, it has been shown that serum starvation during culture of mammalian cells could induce cell death via apoptosis by removing growth factors and increasing intracellular stress. Therefore, apoptosis caused by serum starvation in somatic cells could induce damages to nuclear DNA contributing to a lower efficiency of nuclear transfer. This study was performed to characterize apoptosis during serum starvation of bovine embryonic fibroblasts (BEFs) and to determine the effects of BEFs treated with apoptosis inhibitors on the development of bovine embryos after nuclear transfer. BEFs, collected from a fetus with a 3–4-cm crown-rump length, were cultured for 7 days in starvation medium consisting of Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium containing 0.5% fetal bovine serum to induce quiescence. Cells were also placed in starvation medium containing the apoptosis inhibitors, β2-macroglobulin (broad-range protease inhibitor: MAC; 1.4 pM) and glutathione (GSH: reactive oxygen species scavenger; 2.0 mM). Apoptosis of serum starved BEFs with or without apoptosis inhibitors were analyzed morphologically with light and electron microscope, and biochemically using a TUNEL assay. Somatic cell nuclear transfer was performed by our standard procedure as follows. Bovine oocytes were matured in vitro and enucleated after 22 h. Nuclear donor cells were collected randomly before injection. The reconstructed embryos were placed into the fusion chamber in a solution containing 0.28 M mannitol and aligned manually. A double pulse of 1.8 kV/cm for 15 μs was used to fuse the cells and activate the embryos simultaneously. The fused embryos were cultured for 4 min in 5 μ­M ionomycin and 4 h in 2 mM 6-DMAP. Then, embryos were moved to culture media and cultured in 5% CO2 and 39°C in 100% humidity. Development of NT embryos was recorded at 120 h post NT (morulae) and 168 h (blastocysts) with experiments being repeated three times. Serum starved BEFs showed typical morphology of apoptotic cells such as chromatin condensation and membrane blebbing. Also, when stained for DNA fragmentation by TUNEL assay, 22.6% ofBEFs showed apoptosis, in contrast to 0.1% in actively growing cells. However, when BEFs were cultured with MAC and GSH, the proportions of apoptotic BEFs were greatly reduced, 6.0% and 2.1%, respectively. After nuclear transfer with BEFs, embryos reconstructed with BEF treated with apoptosis inhibitors showed significant improvement in in vitro development compared to the controls (Table 1). In conclusion, while there are a number of factors affecting the nuclear transfer procedure, damage to the donor nuclei by serum starvation is likely to reduce the efficiency of the procedure; the addition of apoptosis inhibitors could reduce this unnecessary damage to donor nuclei and result in improvement in the development of nuclear transferred embryos. Further experiments are needed to assess the effect of apoptosis inhibitors on improvement of overall nuclear transfer efficiency. Table 1.

And Function

Abnormal placental development limits success in ruminant pregnancies derived from somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), due to reduction in placentome number and consequently, maternal/fetal exchange. In the primary stages of an epithelial–chorial association, the maternal/fetal interface is characterized by progressive endometrial invasion by specialized trophoblast binucleate/giant cells (TGC). We hypothesized that dysfunctional placentation in SCNT pregnancies results from aberration in expression of genes known to be necessary for trophoblast proliferation (Mash2), differentiation (Hand1), and function (IFN-τ and PAG-9). We, therefore, compared the expression of these factors in trophoblast from bovine embryos derived from artificial insemination (AI), in vitro fertilization (IVF), and SCNT prior to (day 17) and following (day 40 of gestation) implantation, as well as TGC densities and function. In preimplantation embryos, Mash2 mRNA was more abundant in SCNT embryos compared to AI, while Hand1 was highest in AI and IVF relative to SCNT embryos. IFN-τ mRNA abundance did not differ among groups. PAG-9 mRNA was undetectable in SCNT embryos, present in IVF embryos and highest in AI embryos. In postimplantation pregnancies, SCNT fetal cotyledons displayed higher Mash2 and Hand1 than AI and IVF tissues. Allelic expression of Mash2 was not different among the groups, which suggests that elevated mRNA expression was not due to altered imprinting status of Mash2. The day 40 SCNT cotyledons had the fewest number of TGC compared to IVF and AI controls. Thus, expression of genes critical to normal placental development is altered in SCNT bovine embryos, and this is expected to cause abnormal trophoblast differentiation and contribute to pregnancy loss.
