In order to study the sperm-egg interaction during fertilization process in mouse, the effects of sperm concentration, the duration of capacitation and insemination, the stages of maturation and development of eggs, and sperm extracts and BSA on sperm binding to egg were examined. Sperm-egg binding was increased depending on sperm concentration within the range of $10^3-10^6$ sperm/ml. It showed the most numbers of sperm-egg binding at 60min from the beginning of preincubation(capacitation) and insemination, respectively. During sperm capacitation, sperm-egg binding inhibitor was released from sperm into the incubation medium. Sperm extracts containing trypsin-like enzyme which is secreted through the acrosome reaction increased the binding. BSA in the culture medium showed a positive effect on the binding. It is suggested that physicochemical alterations of zona pellucida in the process of maturation and fertilization of eggs leaded to inhibition of sperm-egg binding.

In order to study the growth and maturation of ovarian follicle, the localization and activity of alkaline phosphatase(ALPase) and adenosine triphosphatase(ATPase) of the granulosa cells and theca layer were examined according to the follicle size, the follicle state and the ovarian cyclic phase in pig. Theca interna of the small follicles was more heavyly localized with reaction product by the activites of ALPase and ATPase than that of the large follicles. It is assumed that, as the follicles proceed to growth and maturation, antrum formation is the result of the follicular fluid accumulation by means of active transport by the activities of ALPase and ATPase in theca interna. The activities of ALPase and ATPase in atretic follicles were higher than those of normal follicles. These results imply that the mechanisms of follicle maturation and atresia are different according to the phase of ovarian cycle.

The present experiments have been bone to verify the effects of the warming rate and the degenerated blastomere(s) on further development of the frozen and thawed 4- and 8-cell mouse embryos. The embryos obtained from the mouse superovulated and mated were frozen in the solution of 15M DMSO in PBS containing 10% FCS at a slowly cooling rate($0.3^{\circ}C/min$). Two methods of warming slowly($8^{\circ}C/min$) and quickly ($450^{\circ}C/min$) were applied for thawing embryos. The thawed embryos were grouped according to the number of healthy blastomere(s) in the embryos. Some of the embryos were eliminated their degenerated blastomere(s) by means of a micromanipulation technique. The embryos were examined their developmental phases after 48 or 72 hrs incubation. The rates of blastocyst development from the frozen and thawed 4- and 8-cell embryos were 72.7% and 73.5%, respectively in case of thawing slowly, and were 78.9% and 80.0%, respectively in case of thawing quickly. The rate in case of thawing quickly was significantly higher than that in case of thawing slowly. The rates of blastocyst development from the frozen and thawed 4- and 8-cell embryos eliminated their degenerated blastomere(s) increased 5.9% and 24.4%, respectively compared with those of control groups not eliminated. The more number of degenerated blastomere(s) were eliminated from the embryos, the higher rate of blastocyst development was shown. It may be concluded from the results that the quickly thawing method is better for increasing survival rate than the slowly thawing one, and that the degenerated blastomere(s) in the frozen and thawed embryos affects as an interfering factor for further development of the embryos.

당뇨병은 생식내분비 조직의 구조나 기능 변화를 유발하여 호르몬 합성 및 분비량의 변화를 야기하고, 정자의 운동성 등에 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 그러나 부정소와 수정관내 정자의 농도 변화나 수정능력 획득 및 침체반응에 미치는 영향은 잘 알려져 있지 않다. 본 실험에서는 Wistar 쥐에 streptozotocin을 투여하여 당뇨병을 유발시킨 후 3일과 14일에 부정소 각 부위와 수정관내 정자 농도 변화를 조사하고 부정소 꼬리와 수정관내 정자의 침체반응 유도 실험 (acrosome reaction to ionophore challenge test, ARIC test)을 이용하여 정자의 수정 능력을 평가하였다. Streptozotocin을 주사한 후 혈액내 인슐린 및 포도당 농도는 당뇨병 경과 기간이 길어짐에 따라 반비례 관계를 보였다. 부정소 머리와 몸통내 정자의 농도는 3일군에서부터 감소하기 시작하나 꼬리에서는 14일군 $(15.2{\pm}2.1)$에서 대조군 $(28.1{\pm}4.0)$이나 3일군에 $(24.8{\pm}2.9)$비해 유의하게 감소하였다. 수정관내 절자 농도는 14일군이 $0.025{\pm}0.013$으로 대조군과 $(0.108{\pm}0.03)$ 3일군에 $(0.067{\pm}0.046)$ 비해 유의하게 감소하였으며, 3일군도 대조군에 비해 유의한 차이를 보였다. 자발적 첨체반응율은 대조군의 부정소 꼬리정자는 $37.1{\pm}2.4$이고 수정관내 정자는 $49.3{\pm}2.4$로 두 부위간 유의한 차이를 보였다. 3일군과 14일군의 부정소 꼬리와 수정관내 정자의 자발적 첨체반응율은 대조군에 비해 유의하게 증가하였다. 한편 14일군의 수정관내 정자의 자발적 첨체반응율은 대조군이나 3일군에 비해 유의하게 증가하였다. ARIC test 결과 대조군과 3일군에서는 20%이상 차이를 보였으나 14일군에서는 약 8.4% 차이를 보였다. 위의 결과가 부정소의 성숙 조절기능 이상 또는 정자형성 이상에 기인한 것인지는 더 연구되어야 하나 당뇨병 병력이 길어짐에 따라 정자의 수적인 감소, 자발적 침체반응의 증가나 침체반응의 약화가 유발되어 생식능력의 감소 원인으로 작용하는 것으로 사료된다. Some of the information concerning sexual function in the male diabetes has been focused upon the problems of endocrine or semen parameters. However, the characteristics of acrosome reaction and spermatozoa concentration at the epididymis and vas deferens have scarcely been studied, and the causes of the infertility has not been critically identified. So, we designed to inspect the spermatozoa concentration and the characteristics of acrosome reaction at epididymis and vas deferens of diabetic Wistar rat induced by streptozotocin (STZ, 70 mg/kg, ip). Experimental animal was sacrificed at 3 days and 14 days after the STZ injection. In the diabetes-induced rat, the levels of insulin and glucose had a pattern of inverse proportion. The spermatozoa concentrations in caput and corpus epididymis were significantly decreased in all diabetic condition. In cauda epididymis, however, there was significant decrease in sperm concentration at 14 days onward. In diabetic rat, the spontaneous reaction rate of spermatozoa of cauda and vas deferens were significantly higher than the control group. The ARIC (acrosome reaction to ionophore challenge) value of caudal sperm was 28.7 at control, 22.1 at 3 days, and 8.3 at 14 days. In the present study the spermatozoa concentration was decreased and the spontaneous reaction rate was increased by diabetes. In ARIC-test, it is revealed that the fertility of spermatozoa of 14 days group was lower than control or 3 days group. Diabetes mellitus may be provoke the decreased fertilization rate and subsequent infertility and subsequent infertility.

난소 스테로이드 호르몬이 임신초기의 흰쥐 자궁 내막조직의 Phosphatase 활성에 미치는 영향

The present investigation has been undertaken to understand the mechanism of implantation process, by demonstrating the role of ovarian steroids in connection with phosphatase activity in the differentiation of uterine endometrium for implantation. The results obtained are as followings: The differentiation of the uterine endometrial tissue was closely influenced by the ovarian steroid hormones; at first, 17${\beta}$-estradiol initiated the differentiation of the uterine luminal and glandular epithelial cells, and then progesterone induced differentiation of stromal cells, and thereby two steroids maintain decidualization of the uterine tissues. We observed that the phosphatase activities seem to be dependent upon the ovarian steroids; that is the activity showed higher level in progesterone treated group than in estradiol treated one, and the highest activity was found in the group treated with both estradiol and progesterone. Acid phosphatase showed the highest activity whereas alkaline phosphatase showed the lowest in the rat uterine endometrium during early pregnancy.

The present investigation has been undertaken to elucidate the functional role of ovarian steroids on the mechanism of oviduct differentiation during early embryonic development in rat. The activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALPase) was measured in the oviduct tissue under different steroids treatment regime on day 9 pregnancy. The ALPase activity of the oviduct of pseudopregnant rat was compared with that of normal pregnant rat. The results of day 9 pregnancy rat oviduct clearly demonstrated that $17{\beta}-estradiol$ and progesterone were effective in pseudopregnant rat oviduct. In the ovary intact group the ALPase activity was similar in both of normal and pseudopregnant oviduct, but in the $17{\beta}-estradiol$ treated group the ALPase activity in normal pregnancy was significantly higher than that in pseudopregnancy. The effect of estradiol on the normal pregnant rat oviduct was apparently found on day 3 and day 9 pregnancy. This study, therefore, clearly demonstrates that $17{\beta}-estradiol$ is much potent in oviduct tissue differentiation. It is suggested that absence of $17{\beta}-estradiol$ effect on pseudopregnant rat oviduct is due to there is no embryo passing througth the oviduct.

Studies on the Early Development of the Mouse Embryo Transplanted in the Anterior Chamber of the Eye

조완규,김문규,Cho, Wan Kyoo,Kim, Moon Kyoo The Korean Society for Integrative Biology 1972 동물학회지 Vol.15 No.1

Two-Cell mouse embryos were incubated in the anterior chamber of the rat eye, which has been known as the best place among other animals' for the mouse ovum maturation, in order to observe the capability of their early development. Within 120 hours after incubation, 71.0% of two-cell embryos have developed to the blastocysts in the male rat eye, while only 38.5% in the eye of the same mouse as donated two-cell embryos. Thus, the rat eye chamber provides more favourable environment to the embryos than the mouse itself. The results are consistent with those of the previous studies comparing the maturation of the mouse follicular oocytes in the mouse and the rat eye chamber. Although the aqueous humor which is filled in the anterior chamber of the eye is characterized by its specific properties, being of higher osmolarity, higher concentrations of ascorbic acid, pyruvate and lactate, but lower of proteins and lower temperature than those in blood or lymph serum, The embryos are able to under-take their cleavage as normal as in vivo or in vitro. Concerning with a number of studies in vitro on the development of the mouse embryos which are requiring a very limited condition, the fact that they are able to manage their further development under very different enviroment from our knowledges would provide us a moment to understand their behavior during the early development. The difference of the proportion of the developed blastocysts between in the mouse eye chamber and in the rat can possibly be resulted from the species specific difference in the physicochemical properties between their eye chambers. This assumption is based upon the findings by many investigators who chmpared the nature of the eye chamber of various animals. As a consequence, the rat eye chamber might consist of better properties for the embryonal growth than the mouse eye chamber. The mouse embryos cleaved with a delayed period. In normal development they complete almost the cleavage within 94 hours after fertilization. However, in the present studies, 81.1% of two-cell embryos developed to the blastocysts and the morula in 120 hours in the eye chamber, assumed to be about 154 hours after fertilization. Such delay in development would be caused mainly by the low temperature of the eye chamber. At present we can make two assumptions to explain the capability of the emtryonal development in the eye chambers. One is that the embryos would possess an ability to adapt themselves to the environment which provides unfavourable conditions. The other is that the embryos might remain for a certain duration in the eye chamber, which is filled with a new body fluid produced immediately after the loss of the aqueous humor and the fluid of which becomes similar to blood serum in component. The first assumption is highly reliable since the embryonal cells are mostly at the undifferentiated state and so they probably engage a simple metabolism during their early period. The second assumption is induced by the fact that the rabbit eye chamber produces a plasmoid humor which has mostly similar components to blood serum after loss of aqueous humor through cornea by puncturing. However, the plasmoid humor is substituted by the initial aqueous humor in eight hours. Even though this finding, production of the new fluid, could be applied to the rat eye, it is hardly reliabel that the plasmoid humor remains for such a long period as 120 hours. Consequently, the development of the embryos is more likely due to their adaptability to the new environment during their early developmental stages. 배아의 발생에 대한 연구는 in vivo 나 in vitro의 방법을 통해 근래 비?적 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 이들의 연구결과에 따르자면, 성분이나 함량 혹은 물리학적 성질이 혈청따위의 체액과는 다른 전방수가 들어차 있는 안전방의 환경은 배아의 발생에 극히 부적당한 곳이라 할 수 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 본실험의 결과를 보면 초기배아의 발생은 극히 정상적으로 진행되고 있다. 이런 점에 비추어 우리는 두 가지 가능성을 추론할 수 있다. 첫째는, 배아의 어느 한정된 범위에서는 그의 환경에 쉽게 적응할 수 있는 능력을 가지고 있을 것이라는 생각이다. 배아세포가 미분화의 상태에 있다는 점과 대사의 정도가 분화된 다른 세포들에 비해 비교적 낮다는 점을 고려할 때 이들 배아는 안전방내의 환경과 같은 특수한 곳에서도 능히 생존할 수가 있는 것이다. 둘째는, 배아를 받아들인 후 전방수의 특성이 달라질 것이라는 점이다. 토끼에서는 일단 안전방내의 전방수가 유출되고 나면 혈청과 비슷한 체액이 약8시간 동안 안전방내에 형성되고 그뒤 차차로 본래의 전방수로 대치된다. 쥐에서도 이러한 체액이 안전방내에 형성된다면 배아를 받아들인 안전방내의 전방수의 성질이 혈청과 비슷해지므로 배아의 발생이 가능해질 수가 있다. 단지 그러한 체액이 전방수의 유출 후 120시간까지 그대로 남아있을 것인가에 대한 의문은 그대로 남아있지만 위의 두가지 가능성에 대하여는 배아의 생태나 행동과 관련시켜 앞으로 더 연구해야 할 것이다.

This experiment has been done to evaluate the relationship between the follicular atresia and the protein patterns on electrophoreais of the follicular fluids in porcine ovary. The protein concentration of the follicular fluids was lower than that of serum, and gradually decreased as the follicle siae became larger. The number of protein bands of follicular fluid on electrophoresis was less than that of serum, and gradually increased as follicle size became larger. Three specific bands were detected on disc PAGE and one band(M W. 75,000) on SDS PAGE in the follicular fluids, while not in serum. One band (A) at ${\beta}$-globulin region on disc PAGE became heavier, as follicles became atretic. Two bands less than(M. W. 20,000) were detected only in the large follicular fluid. Another band(M. W. 43,000) was not detected in necrotic group, whereas all other groups showed it. It could be concluded that the component and composition of the proteins follicular fluids changes according to the follicular size during atresia. Therefore detection of the changing pattern of proteins in the follicular fluid can be used as a basic criterion for the identification of follicular atretic stage.

The study has been carried out in order to evaluate the effects of embryonic stage, and cryopreservation method on the rates of viability and development of the cryopreserved mouse early embryos. The results were as following:In the treatment steps of cryoprotectant, for the fertilized oocyte with pronucleus(PN), 2-step was better than the others. And for the other embryos, 4-step was better than 2- or 3-step. In respect to the embryonic stage, as the embryos developed from fertilized oocytes to 8-cell embryos, the rates of viability and development were increased higher. Therefore, 8-cell embryo was better stage than the others. In respect to the kind of cryoprotectants, PROH was better than DMSO for the fertilized oocyte, as a cryoprotectant. DMSO, for the 2-cell embryos and PROH and DMSO for the 4- and 8-cell embryos were suitable for cryopreservation.

본 연구는 생식주기중 폐쇄여포액내에서 생물학적, 면역학적 특성을 나타내는 GTH 의 변화를 조사하고 steroid hormone과의 상관관계를 조사하며 국부조절인자로서 의 GTH의 역 활을 조사하고자 하였다. 가임기간중 215개의 여포와 IVF과정에서 185개의 여포를 얻어 여포액내 GTH의 생물학적 또는 면역학적 활성을 측정하였다. Bioactive LH(bLH)는 생쥐의 Leydig cell-testosterone production assay, bFSH는 흰쥐의 Sertoli cell aromatase assay로 측정 하였 다. Immunological GTH(iLH , iFSH) 는 MaiaClone RIA , Delfia kits를 사용하였다. 여포액내 iLH, iFSH , ihCG 는 hyperstimulation에 의해 형성된 여포의 크기와는 무관하였다. 또 hMG, huFSH 의 처리와도 상관성이 없었다. T의 농도가 높은 여포액내의 iFSH는 현저히 낮았으며 E, P 가 고농도인 여포의 ihCG 양은 현저히 낮았다. 과배란이 유도된 난소의 여포액내 iLH는 LH specific RIA로 측정시 3mIU/ml 이하이었다. 생식주기중 여포액내 bLH, bFSH는 배란기에 현저히 증가 하였다. 혈청내 GTH B/I ratio는 엘정한 반면 여포액내 LH,FSH의 생물학적, 면역학적 활성은 미수정란을 가지거나 폐쇄된 여포내의 활성보다 현저하게 높았다. 위의 결과로 보아 여포액내 생식소자극호르온은 면역학적활성보다 높은 생물학적 활성을 가지며, 생리적 현상의 지표가 된다고 추론된다. 또한 steroid, bGTH는 여포의 선택, 폐쇄를 구분하는 지표로 사용가능하며, 여포가 폐쇄될때 여포액내 B/I ratio가 현저히 낮아지는 것으로 보아 GTH의 활성이 감소되는 것으로 판단된다.
