조충호,정창국,황우석,Jo, Choong-ho,Cheong, Chang-kook,Hwang, Woo-suk 대한수의학회 1987 大韓獸醫學會誌 Vol.27 No.2

The effects of ethylene glycol as a cryoprotective agent on the survival of frozen-thawed mouse embryos were examined. The effects of the stage of development of ethylene glycol were also examined. Eight-cell embryos, morulae, early blastocysts and mid-blastocysts were recovered from superovulated immature ddY mice. Ethylene glycol was added to the embryos in 5 equal increments 5 minutes apart, giving a final concentration of 1.5M. The embryos were cooled to ${-6^{\circ}C}$ at ${1^{\circ}C/min}$ and seeding was induced at ${-6^{\circ}C}$. After being held for a further 5minutes at the seeding temperature, the samples were cooled to ${-35^{\circ}C}$ at ${0.3^{\circ}C/min}$ and then transferred to liquid nitrogen. Rapid thawing was done by placing the straws in ${37^{\circ}C}$ water. The thawed embryos were diluted in PBS of same time and manners as adding procedures. Survival of 8-cell embryos and morulae were assessed as a normal development of the embryos to the blastocyst stage and expanding blastocyst after 54 hours and 48 hours of in vitro culture, respectively. While those of the early and mid-blastocysts were assessed to the expanding blastocyst stage after 24 hours of in vitro culture. The survival rates of 8-cell embryos, morulae, early blastocysts and mid-blastocysts were 73.8%, 74.3%, 87.8% and 77.4%, respectively. Significant difference on the survival rate among the four stages of development was not observed.

To investigate the changes of pituitary gland associated with ovarian cyst in Korean native cattle, pituitaries and ovaries were collected from 54 Korean native cattle at abbatoir. Pituitaries were stained with HerIant pituitary stain method and all the tissues were examined under light microscope. The results obtained were summarized as follows; 1. The delta cells and beta cells in the pars distalis were dull blue and violet in colors respeetively. Basophil size in the follicular phase and pregnant groups was larger than those of luteal phase and ovarian dysfunction groups. 2. The numbers of delta cells in the pars distalis of follicular cyst group were larger than those of remaining groups (p<0.01). 3. The distribution of delta cells in the acidophil zone was greater than that in the basophil zone of the follicular cyst and follicular phase groups. 4. The granulations of delta cells were more intensive in follicular cyst, follicular phase and pregnancy groups than in luteal phase and ovarian dysfunction groups (p<0.01). 5. The numbers of beta cells in follicular phase and ovarian dysfunction groups were larger than those in luteal phase and follicular cyst groups respectively (p<0.01). 6. In all groups, the distribution of beta cells was greater in basophilic zone than in acidophilic zone (p<0.01).

이병천,조충호,황우석,Lee, Byeong-chun,Jo, Choong-ho,Hwang, Woo-suk 대한수의학회 1993 大韓獸醫學會誌 Vol.33 No.1

The present study was carried out to investigate the developmental potency to blastocyst after freezing and thawing of nuclear transplanted 2-cell embryos. The nuclei from 2-, 4- and 8-cell mouse embryos were transferred into enucleated 2-cell embryos, and the reconstituted embryos were submitted to direct current(DC) pulse at output voltage of 2.0 kV/cm for $100{\mu}$ sec to induce cell fusion. The recovery rate and developmental potency to blastocyst after freezing and thawing of nuclear transplanted 2-cell embryos was investigated. 1. The recovery rate of nuclear transplanted 2-cell embryos in normal morphology after freezing and thawing was significantly higher in rapid freezing(DMSO 4.5M) than in slow cooling(p<0.01). 2. When the recovered embryos in normal morphology were cultured in vitro, there were no significant differences in the developmental potency to blastocyst between the freezing methods and the concentrations of cryoprotectant. In summary, these experiments have proved that rapid freezing method(DMSO 4.5M) is effective in nuclear transplanted 2-cell mouse embryos. If improved micromanipulation techniques and freezing are combined, nuclear transplantation technique will contribute to the improvement of productivity in livestock animals.

이은송,조충호,황우석,Lee, Eun-song,Jo, Choong-ho,Hwang, Woo-suk 대한수의학회 1989 大韓獸醫學會誌 Vol.29 No.3

This study was performed to investigate the effects of stage and quality of embryo, synchrony between donor and recipient and difficulty of transfer on pregnancy rate following non-surgical transfer of frozen-thawed bovine embryos. The results were as follows; 1. The overall pregnancy rate of this experiment was 63.4% and that of heifers(73.1%) was higher than that of cows(46.7%). 2. The pregnancy rates of recipients transferred with morulae, early blastocysts and blastocysts were 50.0%, 64.7% and 71. 4%, respectively. 3. The pregnancy rate of recipients transferred with good embryos(67.9%) was higher than that of recipients transferred with fair embryos(53.8%). 4. The pregnancy rates of embryos transferred to left and right uterine horn were 63.2% and 63.6%, respectively. 5. The pregnancy rate of recipients in estrous synchrony 0(76.2%) was higher than those of recipients in synchrony -1(55.6%) and +1(44.4%). 6. The pregnancy rate of recipients transferred with 2 embryos (71. 4%) was higher than that of recipients transferred with 1 embryo(61.8%). 7. The pregnancy rate of embryos transferred to uterine tip (72.0%) was higher than that of embryos transferred to uterine base(50.0%). 8. Ease of transfer was ranked to a scale of one to three on the basis of increasing difficulty. Transfers ranked as ease score 1 accounted for 77.8% of pregnancies and had higher pregnancy rate than ease score 2(66.7%) or 3(45.5%). 9. The pregnancy rate of recipients with excellent corpus luteum(CL) (70.0%) was higher than those of recipients with good CL(61.1%) or fair CL(61.5) %. In reviewing above results, it was considered that the factors such as embryo stage, embryo quality, estrous synchrony, corpus luteum quality, transfer site within uterus, recipient's parity and ease score affected the pregnancy rate after non-surgical transfer of frozen-thawed bovine embryos.

The effect of selenium and vitamin E on the incidence of retained fetal membranes(RFM) was evaluated in dairy cows raised in Kyonggi-do province from July through September 1985. Sodium selenite(0.1mg/kg of body weight) and vitamin E (1,000 IU) were simultaneously injected 21 days prior to the expected calving day to Holstein cows and the incidence in the treated group was compared with that in the non-treated control group. Serum levels of selenium, vitamin E, calcium, inorganic phosphorus and magnesium were also determined in the treated and the non-treated groups to compare the status of vitamin E and other minerals during periparturient period in the cows with RFM and the normal ones. The incidence of RFM was 34.5% in cows of the non-treated group (29 heads), whereas it was significantly reduced to 9.7% in cows of the treated group (31 heads) (p<0.05). Data for serum mineral concentrations showed that the prepartal inorganic phosphorus concentration was significantly lower in the RFM than in the not-retained group(p<0.01). As a result, the prepartal Ca/P ratio was significantly higher in the RFM group(p<0.01). It appears that a single injection of 0.1mg of sodium selenite per kg body weight and 1,000 IU of vitamin E 21 days prior to the expected calving day is an effective prophylactic for prevention of RFM, and that RFM may be related to imbalances in calcium and phosphorus metabolism.

이효종,조충호,박무현,Lee, Hyo-jong,Jo, Choong-ho,Park, Moo-hyun 대한수의학회 1986 大韓獸醫學會誌 Vol.26 No.1

The present study has been carried out to elucidate the antiestrogenic effects of tamoxifen on RNA and protein synthesis in uteri of immature rats. Immature female Sprague-Dawley rats were allocated into 4 groups and injected with $5{\mu}g$ of estradiol-$17{\beta}$, $50{\mu}g$ of tamoxifen, a combination of both, or vehicle only subcutaneously three times with an interval of 24 hours respectively. The specific activities of $^3H$-uridine incorporation into uterine RNA and those of $^3H$-leucine incorporation into uterine protein were measured before and 1, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the above treatments. The results obtained were summarized as follows; 1. Tamoxifen itself increased RNA synthesis an hour after treatment(169.18% of control), but it's specific activity was reduced to control level after 3 hours. Tamoxifen inhibited significantly (p<0.01) the activity of RNA synthesis of estradiol-$17{\beta}$. 2. The increasing rate of protein synthesis was lower in tamoxifen treated group than that in estradiol-$17{\beta}$ treated group. While the rate was steadily increased up to 357.4% of control by estradiol-$17{\beta}$ in 72 hours, tamoxifen itself failed to increase the rate after 24 hours and significantly (p<0.01) inhibited the activity of estradiol-$17{\beta}$(-167.4%).

The 587 Holstein cows which calved from January 1983 to December 1984 at an integrated dairy farm in Chung-nom province were examined for the incidence of reproductive disorders and their conception rate after treatment. The results obtained were as follows; 1. The incidence of reproductive disorders was 47.9% (281 heads) among 587 heads which calved. 1) As number of calvings increased, the incidence of reproductive disorders decreased. 2) The cows which calved in spring and summer showed significantly higher incidence of reproductive disorders than those which calved in autumn and winter (p<0.05). 3) Among reproductive disorders, ovarian, uterine, cervical and vaginal diseases figured 54.3%, 43.7%, 0.9% and 0.6%, respectively. 4) Among individual genital diseases, endometritis (40.3%) occurred most frequently. 2. Among 281 heads with reproductive disorders, 216 heads(76.9%) conceived after treatment. 1) After treatment of reproductive disorders, the conception rate by number of calvings was in range from 69.6% to 87.5%. 2) The cows which calved in summer and winter showed significantly higher conception rate after treatment of reproductive disorders than those which calved in spring and autumn (P<0.05). 3) The conception rates after treatment of the cows with ovarian, uterine, cervical and vaginal diseases were 66.5%, 81.2%, 33.3% and 50.0% respectively. 4) The cows with endometritis showed the highest conception rate after treatment (85.9%).

이효종,조충호,박무현,Lee, Hyo-jong,Jo, Choong-ho,Park, Moo-hyun 대한수의학회 1985 大韓獸醫學會誌 Vol.25 No.2

The Present study has been carried out to elucidate the antiestrogenic effects of tamoxifen in uteri of immature rats. Immature female Sprague-Dawley rats were allocated into 4, groups and injected with $5{\mu}g$ of estradiol-$17{\beta}$, $50{\mu}g$ of tamoxifen, a combination of both or vehicle only subcutaneously three times after an interval of 24 hours respectively. The concentrations, of cytosol estradiol receptor in uterus were measured by DCC method before and 1, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the above treatments and those of nuclear estradiol were measured by protamine exchange method 72 hours and those of nuclear estradiol were measured by protamine exchange method 72 hours after the above treatments. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1. The binding affinity of tamoxifen to estradiol receptor in uterine cytosol was lower than that of estradiol-$17{\beta}$, accordingly the translocation of estradiol receptor into the nucleus was found to be delayed. 2. Tamoxifen caused the retention of estradiol receptor in nucleus over 24 hours and inhibited the replenishment of the receptor from nucleus to cytosol in uterus.

신상태,조충호,Shin, Sang-tae,Jo, Choong-ho 대한수의학회 1991 大韓獸醫學會誌 Vol.31 No.2

Thc chimeric morulae were produced following aggregation of the half embryos which were microsurgically bisected at 8-cell and early morula stage. Different phenotypic embryos were obtained by mating ICR female mice with ICR or CBA male mice. The early morula stage was thc desirable stage for the aggregation of mouse embryos after bisection. The post-thawed survival rates of bisected-aggregated embryos that developed into normal blastocyst after conventional freezing in DMSO and ethylene glycol were 30.5 and 32.896, respectively. One offspring was produced by transferring the 67 frozen-thawed bisected-aggregated embryos.
