Research performed on several aspects of the reproductive biology of the female, fat-tailed dunnarts (Sminthopsis crassicaudata). Investigates the origin of the shell membrane, the stage of embryonic development at which it is lost and implantation takes place, the morphological features of fetal-maternal cellular interactions at implantation and placentation.

Full textIn Australia almost 40% of the carnivorous marsupials, or dasyurids, are threatened. Assisted reproductive techniques (ART), especially genome resource banking, have the potential to contribute to the conservation of these species by reducing the loss of genetic diversity. This project aimed to advance the knowledge of ART in dasyurids by focusing on the long term preservation of male and female gametes and establishing protocols for the production of mature oocytes for use in future ART. These studies used the fat tailed dunnart (Sminthopsis crassicaudata) as a model dasyurid and replicated many of the findings on threatened dasyurids. Dasyurid spermatozoa had a relatively unstable acrosome which lacked acrosomal membrane disulphide stabilisation. There was no evidence that S. crassicaudata spermatozoa were susceptible to high concentrations of cryoprotectants, but spermatozoa frozen with up to 40% glycerol using a rapid freezing protocol were not viable. Nonetheless the morphology and acrosomal integrity of frozen spermatozoa was normal and there was no evidence of DNA damage. The lack of success with cryopreservation is likely to be an artifact of cold shock, which was observed in S. crassicaudata and had not previously been described in any other marsupial. This susceptibility to low temperature can be overcome by slow cooling spermatozoa to 0 ºC at 0.5 ºC minute -1 with up to 20% egg yolk, and it is likely that this finding will result in successful sperm cryopreservation in the near future. Freeze drying spermatozoa represents an additional strategy for long term sperm preservation and freeze dried S. crassicaudata spermatozoa had normal morphology and nuclear integrity. In this study preserved dasyurid spermatozoa were immotile and non-viable but had no nuclear damage, suggesting that fertilisation may be achieved with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). As ICSI requires a large number of mature oocytes to be collected, a reliable timed ovarian stimulation protocol was established in S. crassicaudata. This protocol enabled the collection of up to 28 oocytes which were either mature, or able to be cultured to the first polar body stage within 48 hours. Despite the success of induced ovulation, methods for preservation of the female gamete are essential to genome resource banking. This study also described a protocol for the enzymatic dissociation of dasyurid ovarian tissue allowing collection of high quality individual preantral follicles. The oocytes inside these follicles were able to be vitrified without any loss of viability and short term in vitro culture of immature follicles repaired the small amount of vitrification-induced damage to the surrounding granulosa cells. This collection of studies describes progress in genome resource banking for spermatozoa and oocytes from dasyurids and the development of protocols allowing the collection of a large number of oocytes for use in fertilisation experiments. These advances provide a solid and comprehensive framework for continuing the study of dasyurid ART which is timely due to the urgent need for genome resource banking in several threatened dasyurid marsupials.
