Abstract

This study was carried out to test the efficacy of pharmacological inhibitors of the cell cycle transition in keeping bovine oocytes at the germinal vesicle(GV) stage and the reversibility of this inhibition. Bovine oocytes were incubated for 22∼24 hrs in the presence of various inhibitors : cycloheximide (2$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$), 6-DMAP (2 mM), and roscovitine (50$\mu$M). Bovine oocytes cultured with any of the inhibitors were significantly blocked at the GV stage. Reversibility of pharmacological inhibitors was assessed by culturing oocytes an additional 22∼24 hours in inhibitor-free medium. Examination of oocytes revealed that the inhibitory effect was fully reversible and effect of resuming meiotic progression on nuclear maturation varied according to the various inhibitors. This study suggests that cycloheximide, 6-DMAP and roscovitine can be applied to control meiotic arrest and resumption in maturation culture of bovine oocytes in vitro. More investigations are needed to better understand how the cell cycle of oocyte is blocked without problems to future developmental competence.

본 연구에서 소 미성숙 난자의 성숙 배양 시 세포주기 억제제인 cycloheximide, 6-DMAP, rosco-vitine를 첨가하였을 때 난자의 감수분열이 억제제비 첨가난자에 비해 높은 비율로 germinal vesicle 기에서 정지된 것이 관찰되었다. 또한 cyclohexi-mide, 6-DMAP, roscovitine을 배지에서 제거한 후 다시 추가적인 체외 성숙 배양을 실시하여 ger-minal vesicle기에 정지된 세포주기의 진행이 재개되어 난자의 감수분열 완료 및 성숙이 세포주기억제제 비 첨가난자와 거의 동등하게 나타난 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 cyclo-heximide, 6-DMAP, roscovitine의 소 미성숙 난자의 세포주기 조절작용이 가역적임을 알 수 있었으며 난자의 세포 주기 동기화에 이용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
