Full textIntroduction: The zona pellucida (ZP) is a transparent extracellular matrix surrounding the oocyte plasma membrane of mammals. In order for implantation to occur, the full expansion of the blastocyst, accompanied by thinning of the ZP and the emergence of pre-embryo favored by the dissolution of the ZP is necessary. However, this process does not always happen, and if the blastocyst can not leave the ZP, it would not be possible for the implantation to occur. Over the last two decades, different methods have been used for handling the ZP in old women (Balaban et al., 2002). A systematic review (Das et al., 2009) reveals that assisted hatching (AH), can increase success rates in women with implantation failure and probably old women, but the data of rates of multiple pregnancy must be analysed more deeply. It seems that the advanced age and the in vitro culture of the pre-embryos can cause hardening of the ZP, so making the application of Assisted hatching (AH) technique to facilitate the hatching of blastocysts necessary, and then to increase pregnancy rates and implantation (Magli et al., 1998). Objectives: Main objective: to analyse whether the application of laser assisted zona thinning (LAZT) is a useful tool to increase the pregnancy rate in patients who undergo in ART, in cycles of IVF/ICSI, according to patient age (38- 39 years and ≥ 40 years) and thickness according to ZP (<15 µm and ≥ 15 µm). Secondary objectives: to analyse whether the application of AZPL is a useful tool to increase implantation rates, LB in patients undergoing ART, and decrease miscarriages rates in cycles of IVF / ICSI (38-39 years and ≥ 40 years) and according ZP thickness (<15 µm and ≥ 15 µm). Materials and Methods: This retrospective study was performed in IVI-Murcia, between March 2006 and December 2012. It consists of studying 308 cycles which were distributed randomly in 2 groups as placed or not LAZT: A: 154 cycles in which the LAZT (Non- LAZT) is not performed on pre-embryos. B: 154 cycles in those that underwent the LAZT on pre-embryos. These two groups were subdivided according to age, in: 38-39 years rank and ≥ 40 years rank: • Patients with 38-39 years, whose pre-embryos underwent the LAZT: No- LAZT 38-39 years. • Patients with 38-39 years, who underwent yes LAZT: LAZT 38-39 years. • Patients with age ≥ 40 years without LAZT: No- LAZT ≥ 40 years. • Patients aged ≥ 40 years with LAZT: LAZT ≥ 40 years. The thickness of the ZP was analysed and divided into: A: pre-embryos whose average thickness was ≥ 15μm ZP. B: pre-embryos ZP average diameter of <15µm. And in turn, these groups were analysed, evaluating the impact of LAZT, according to age: 38-39 years and ≥ 40 years. • Patients with 38-39 years with pre-embryos: ZP <15µm and 15µm ≥ ZP. • Patients ≥ 40 years with pre-embryos: ZP <15µm and ZP ≥ 15µm. To each pre-embryo transfer, in D3, was performed a LAZT OCTAX system using laser shot (MTG-OCTAX Germany), when belonging to LAZT. Statistical analysis was performed using Fisher's test. The results were considered statistically significant when P <0.05 was obtained. Overall results of LAZT and Non- LAZT in women ≥ 38 years Pregnancy rate, implantation rate, miscarriage rate, LB rate and twins pregnancy rate are: 32,0%, 20,8%, 20,0%, 26,7% and 5,7% respectively in patients belonging to LAZT in patients with 38-39 years. And in patients belonging to LAZT 38-39 years the results in pregnancy rate, implantation rate, abortion rate, LB rate and twins pregnancy rate are: 46,9%, 35,0%, 26,7%, 42,7% and 17,7% respectively. There are statistically significant in pregnancy and LB rate (p<0.05). In patients No- LAZT ≥ 40 years, the results are in pregnancy rate, implantation rate, abortion rate, LB rate and Twins Pregnancy rate: 24,4%, 16,4%, 45,4%, 15,5% and 9,1% respectively. In patients LAZT ≥ 40 years, the results are in pregnancy rate, implantation rate, abortion rate, LB rate and Twins Pregnancy rate: 22,4%, 14,0%, 46,2%, 13,8% and 7,7% respectively (p>0,05). Overall results of LAZT and Non- LAZT in women ≥ 38 years with ZP ≥ 15µm Pregnancy rate, implantation rate, miscarriage rate, LB rate and twins pregnancy rate are: 30,2%, 21,5%, 21,7%, 26,3% and 13,0% respectively in patients belonging to No-LAZT in patients with 38-39 years and ZP ≥ 15µm. Pregnancy rate, implantation rate, miscarriage rate, LB rate and twins pregnancy rate are: 50,8%, 38,8%, 20,0%, 50,8% and 20,0% respectively in patients belonging to LAZT with 38-39 years and ZP ≥ 15µm.There are results statistically significant in pregnancy, implantation and LB rate. Pregnancy rate, implantation rate, miscarriage rate, LB rate and twins pregnancy rate are: 40,0%, 23,8%, 40,0%, 28,0% and 0% respectively in patients belonging to No-LAZT with ≥ 40 years and ZP ≥ 15µm. Pregnancy rate, implantation rate, miscarriage rate, LB rate and twins pregnancy rate are: 23,1%, 15,6%, 55,5%, 12,8% and 11,1% respectively in patients belonging to LAZT with ≥ 40 years and ZP ≥ 15µm. No statistically significant differences in this group. Conclusions: In patients from 38 to 39 years old: The pregnancy and implantation rates obtained are significantly higher (p <0.05) when the LAZT is done in fresh oocytes which are ≥15μm ZPS, when it is compared with patients that have not been applied LAZT their pre-embryos before transfer. The abortion rate is not affected when the LAZT is applied to pre-embryos before embryo transfer. LB obtained rate is significantly higher (p <0.05) when the LAZT is performed in fresh oocytes which are ZPs ≥ 15 μm as compared to patients where it has not been applied LAZT their pre-embryos prior to transfer. No statistically significant differences in twin pregnancy rates are obtained from subgroups of this age group.

Full textDurante la maduración ovocitaria el ovocito experimenta cambios a nivel nuclear, citoplasmático y de sus cubiertas, encontrándose en esta última la zona pelúcida (ZP), cubierta extracelular que cumple importantes funciones en el reconocimiento gamético durante la fecundación. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar mediante microscopía electrónica de barrido (MEB) los cambios a nivel ultraestructural en la ZP durante la maduración ovocitaria in vitro, comparando la ZP de ovocitos inmaduros y aquellos madurados en cultivo. También se evaluó el estado morfológico de la ZP de ovocitos de perra durante el proceso de maduración in vitro, a través de dos tiempos de cultivo (72 y 96 horas). Paralelamente, se evaluó el diámetro de los ovocitos con su ZP, en estado inmaduro y sometidos a maduración en cultivo. De ovarios de perras sanas sometidas a ovariohisterectomía se obtuvo un total de 500 ovocitos a través de cortes finos, en un total de 15 réplicas experimentales. Se seleccionaron los ovocitos, de mayor tamaño (diámetro), con su citoplasma homogéneo y completamente rodeados por al menos tres capas de células del cúmulo. Los ovocitos seleccionados en cada réplica fueron divididos en dos grupos: un grupo se incubó para maduración in vitro en medio TCM 199 suplementado y el otro grupo se procesó inmediatamente en estado de ovocitos inmaduros. La fijación de los ovocitos inmaduros y madurados in vitro se realizó posterior a la extracción de las células del cúmulo. Para ello, fueron lavados en buffer Cacodilato 50 mM por 15 minutos y luego fijados en glutaraldehído 2,5% por un mínimo de 24 h. Posteriormente se realizó una postfijación con Tetroxido de Osmio al 2%, luego los ovocitos fueron colocados en cámaras de cobre cerradas para ser deshidratados mediante concentraciones crecientes de acetona (30%, 50%, 70%, 90% y 100%). La deshidratación de los ovocitos se completó mediante secado de punto crítico del CO2. Luego fueron 5 montados en porta-especímen para ser sombreados con oro-paladio. Las muestras se analizaron bajo el MEB marca “LEO” modelo 1420 VP. La medición del trabeculado de la zona pelúcida y del tamaño ovocitario se llevó a cabo mediante el programa “AutoCad 2006” a un total de 93 ovocitos a partir de las fotografías tomadas en el MEB. Del total de ovocitos analizados 30 pertenecían a estado inmaduro, 31 a 72 horas de maduración y 32 a 96 horas de maduración. Los resultados se evaluaron por el análisis de varianza de un factor o clasificación simple y la prueba de Tukey para determinar la significancia de las diferencias P≤ 0,05. Se encontraron diferencias significativas (P≤ 0,05) entre ovocitos inmaduros y madurados in vitro, tanto a 72 como a 96 h. En ovocitos antes de la maduración en cultivo se observó que los agujeros de la ZP eran compactos y de poco tamaño, en cambio en los ovocitos ya madurados in vitro, los agujeros de la ZP presentaron un tamaño mayor. Comparando los dos tiempos de maduración in vitro empleados en este trabajo, se observó mayor tamaño de agujeros en el trabeculado de la ZP de ovocitos madurados por 72 h en comparación a aquellos madurados por 96 h. En el tamaño ovocitario no se encontró un aumento significativo entre los ovocitos madurados in vitro respecto a los inmaduros. Tanto en los ovocitos inmaduros como en los madurados en sistema de cultivo se observó en un alto porcentaje, aproximadamente un 81% de un total de 500 ovocitos, cierto grado de daño morfológico en la ZP, encontrando una mayor proporción de daño en los ovocitos que se sometieron a un sistema de maduración in vitro. De los resultados se puede concluir que durante la maduración ovocitaria in vitro hay cambios estructurales a nivel de la ZP en ovocitos caninos, los que podrían influir en la capacidad de unión y penetración del espermatozoide a través de la ZP durante la interacción de los gametos

Resumo: Nas últimas décadas, alguns parâmetros laboratoriais têm sido propostos para identificar o potencial de saúde oocitária em Reprodução Assistida: 1. Maturidade nuclear e citoplasmática (pesquisa); 2. Dismorfismo (anomalias intracitoplasmáticas); 3. Fertilizaçao. Habitualmente, esses parâmetros (exceto a maturação citoplasmática) são avaliados pelo simples emprego de sistemas de microscopia de luz convencional. Nos últimos oito anos, foram relatados diversos estudos em oócitos humanos sobre a birrefringência da zona pelúcida (BF-ZP), a espessura da ZP, e a visualização do fuso meiótico (FM). Entretanto, ainda é discutível o poder desses novos parâmetros na seleção de óvulos com o pontecial de originar embriões com taxas de implantação elevadas, além disso, seu sistema de visualização e quantificação é complexo e dispendioso. O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar uma possível correlação entre esses parâmetros tradicionais com a BF-ZP, espessura da ZP e o FM. Dessa forma, um total de 73 pacientes que participaram do programa de injeção intracitoplasmática de espermatozóide (ICSI) no Centro de Reprodução Humana "Prof Franco Júnior" tiveram seus óvulos avaliados quanto a maturação nuclear (n=83), maturação citoplasmática (n=29), dismorfismo (n=280) e fertilização (n=216) sendo os resultados correlacionados com a imagem do FM (presença ou ausência), a intensidade da BF-ZP (positiva ou negativa) e a espessura da ZP. Os dados finais revelaram uma fraca correlação entre a maturação, o dismorfismo e a fertilização oocitária com a imagem do FM, a intensidade da BF-ZP, e a espessura da ZP. Entretanto, esses parâmetros poderiam ser responsáveis por identificar pontos biológicos diferentes do potencial de qualidade oocitária. Assim sendo, seria uma medida coerente, a utilização desses parâmetros, em forma conjunta, através de um escore de qualidade oocitária.
Abstract: During the last decades, three laboratorial parameters have been proposed to identify the potential of the oocyte quality in ART: 1- Nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation; 2-Dysmorphims (intracytoplasmic abnormalities); 3 - Fertilization. These parameters (except the cytoplasmic maturation) are assessed by a simple system of conventional light microscopy. In the last eight years, numerous studies about zona pellucida birefringence (BF-ZP), zona pellucida thickness and meiotic spindle visualization have been reported. However, it is still controversial the power of these parameters in selecting oocyte with potential to develop into implantation-competent embryos. Furthermore, the microscopy system is complex and expensive. The present study aims to evaluate whether there is any correlation between the classical parameters with BF-ZP, ZP thickness and spindle image. A total of 73 patients who participated in an ICSI program had their oocytes evaluated such nuclear maturation (n=83), cytoplasmic maturation (n=29), dysmorphism (n=280) and fertilization (n=216) being its results correlated to the spindle image (presence or absence), BF-ZP intensity (positive or negative) and ZP thickness. The final results showed a low correlation between maturation, dysmorphism and fertilization compared to spindle image and ZP characteristics (BF-ZP, ZP thickness). However, these factors can be responsible to identify specific biological differ from the oocyte potential. Concluding, the use of these factors in association, as a score (oocyte quality score), could be the correct evaluation.

Full textThe mammalian oocyte is surrounded by a matrix called the zona pellucida (ZP). This envelope participates in processes such as acrosome reaction induction, sperm binding, and may be involved in speciation. Recent studies have shown that the ZP matrix of oocytes in several species is composed of four glycoproteins, designated ZP1, ZP2, ZP3 and ZP4, rather than the three described in mouse, pig and cow. In cat (Felis catus), this matrix is composed of at least three glycoproteins called ZP2, ZP3 and ZP4. However, the presence of a fourth protein in several mammals, meaning that a reevaluation of cat ZP is needed. Additionally, in this thesis, investigations were carried out to unveil a fourth glycoprotein in the rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculis) ZP. The objectives of this research was to analyse of the protein composition of cat ZP by means of proteomic analysis and rabbit ZP1 was amplified by reverse transcribed polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Using ZP from ovaries and oocytes of cat, several peptides corresponding to four proteins were detected, yielding a coverage of 33.17%, 71.50%, 50.23% and 49.64% for ZP1, ZP2, ZP3 and ZP4, respectively. Moreover, the expression of four genes was confirmed by molecular analysis. Using total RNA isolated from cat ovaries, the complementary deoxyribonucleic acids (cDNAs) encoding cat ZPs were partially amplified by RT-PCR. In the rabbit the ZP1 cDNA contains an open reading frame of 1825 nucleotides encoding a polypeptide of 608 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence of rabbit ZP1 showed high identity with other species: 70% identity with human and horse ZP1, and 67% identity with mouse and rat ZP1. At the proteomic level, peptides corresponding to the four proteins were detected by mass spectrometry. In addition, a molecular phylogenetic analysis of ZP1 showed that pseudogenization of this gene has occurred at least four times during the evolution of mammals. The data presented in this thesis provide evidence, for the first time, that the rabbit and cat ZP is composed of four glycoproteins.

ZP2 acts as a secondary sperm receptor that is necessary for the maintenance of sperm binding to the egg, its proteolytical modification after fertilization permits the block to polyspermy ZP2 participates also in the organization, development, maturation of the oocyte beacuse it keeps consistently the matrix and the interaction between peripherical cells with the germ cell. We isolated and analized in silico a partial coding secquence of the glycoprotein of type 2 (aZP2) in alpacas, we determined that this protein is express exclusively in the ovaries. Also this amalized partial secquence is conserved, constituting a monophyletic group between Cetarteodactyla. This thesis work provides basic knowledge on the glycoprotein a ZP2 in alpacas, a protein implicitly involved in fertilization, to know it benefits the improvement of existing reproductive biotechnology techniques such as the follicular-oocyte maturation, cryopreservation of gametes and embryos in vitro fertilization and injection of intracytoplasmic sperm, techniques that are trying to be implemented with many difficulties in camelids.

Full textLa adecuada interacción de los gametos depende de la capacidad que tengan los espermatozoides de experimentar la capacitación y reacción acrosómica, procesos esenciales para la fecundación del ovocito y que pueden verse afectados por el proceso de refrigeración espermática. En este trabajo se estudió el efecto del tiempo de capacitación en espermatozoides refrigerados de perro, a través de la capacidad de unión y penetración a la zona pelúcida de ovocitos de perra madurados in vitro. El semen se obtuvo de la estimulación digital a 5 perros adultos. Un total de 9 eyaculados provenientes de los mismos perros, fueron procesados como muestras frescas o refrigeradas. Posterior a la evaluación seminal, el plasma seminal fue retirado por centrifugación. Los espermatozoides frescos se resuspendieron inmediatamente en Fert Talp y los espermatozoides a refrigerar se resuspendieron en diluyente en base a TRIS - yema de huevo - ácido cítrico - fructuosa y se conservaron a 4ºC por 24 horas, para luego ser mantenidos a 37°C por 10 minutos y posteriormente centrifugados para retirar el diluyente. Luego, los espermatozoides frescos (control) y refrigerados, fueron incubados en Fert Talp para capacitación in vitro, a temperatura ambiente (20°C) durante 0 a 3 horas y, posterior a cada tiempo de incubación, co-incubados con ovocitos madurados in vitro. Posterior a la co-incubación, los ovocitos inseminados fueron lavados y luego procesados separadamente para ser examinados bajo microscopia electrónica de barrido (MEB) y microscopia de epifluorescencia. Para MEB, se evaluaron un total de 318 ovocitos (174 y 134 ovocitos para espermatozoides frescos y refrigerados, respectivamente). El análisis de MEB consideró un ovocito con espermatozoides unidos cuando fueron encontrados uno o más espermatozoides adheridos a la zona pelúcida ovocitaria (ZP), y un ovocito con espermatozoides penetrados cuando se encontraron uno o más espermatozoides atravesando la ZP. Para la microscopia de epifluorescencia se evaluaron un total de 466 ovocitos (219 y 247 ovocitos para espermatozoides frescos y refrigerados, respectivamente), considerando un ovocito con espermatozoides unidos cuando se encontraron uno o más espermatozoides adheridos a la ZP y ovocito con epermatozoides penetrados cuando fueron encontrados uno o más espermatozoides atravesando la ZP, en el espacio perivitelino o dentro del citoplasma ovular. Los resultados se analizaron mediante un procedimiento de Regresión Logística Binomial (Statistical Analysis System, SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA). Tanto en MEB como en microscopia de epifluorescencia, los resultados de fecundación in vitro con espermatozoides frescos y refrigerados, no mostraron diferencias significativas en la unión ni en la penetración espermática (p≥0,05), a través de los diferentes tiempos de capacitación. Asimismo, al comparar entre ambos tipos de espermatozoides, la unión y penetración en los diferentes tiempos de capacitación, no se evidenciaron diferencias significativas entre ellos (p≥0,05). En conclusión, los espermatozoides frescos y refrigerados caninos, capacitados in vitro durante 0 a 3 horas, no difieren en su capacidad para unirse y penetrar la ZP de ovocitos de perra madurados in vitro

Full textIn this doctoral thesis, we analyzed the origin and the composition of hamster ZP. In this study we demonstrated that the hamster zona pellucida is formed by four glycoproteins (ZP1, ZP2, ZP3 y ZP4). The results of our study suggested that the expression of this glycoproteins is exclusively restricted to the oocyte. Finally, ZP4 was analyzed by means of a phylogenetic approach in the subfamily Murinae.

Full textUntil the present literature has not achieved a consensus regarding the best maturation stage for oocyte to maintain their reproductive capacity after cryopreservation. The aim of this study was to determine, using an experimental bovine model, in which stage of development (VG stage, immature, or MII stage, post-maturation in vitro) the oocyte is less susceptible to damage during cryopreservation. Immature oocytes (VG) from the ovaries of slaughtered cows were selected for in vitro maturation or vitrification and divided into three groups. The first group (CONTROL) consisted of immature oocytes, matured in vitro without vitrification; the second group (CRYO-IVM) consisted of vitrified immature oocytes thawed and submitted to in vitro maturation; and the third group (IVM-CRYO) consisted of matured in vitro oocytes submitted to vitrification and thawing. The oocytes were evaluated for: nuclear maturation by acetic orcein staining; integrity of the zona pellucida using a polarized microscope; cell viability by the Dead-Live technique; and embryo development (cleavage, production and hatching rate) by in vitro fertilization and parthenogenetic activation. There was no difference in capacity of nuclear maturation between fresh and thawed oocytes (p=0.23). Regarding the zona pellucida (ZP), all oocytes (100%) of all three groups (control, CRYO-IVM and IVMCRYO) presented a positive ZP reading, with no correlation with later embryo evolution. DEAD-LIVE analysis of cell viability revealed reduction of viability in the IVM-CRYO group (27%) compared to control (84%) (p<0.0001) and to the CRYO-IVM group (56%) (p=0.017), with no difference between the last two groups (p=0.055). Analysis of the potential for embryo development by means of in vitro fertilization showed that the control group presented better cleavage and blastocyst formation rates than the CRYO-IVM (p<0.0001 and p<0.0001, respectively) and the IVM-CRYO (p<0.0001 and p=0.0004, respectively) groups. Analyzing the potential for embryo development the control group presented better cleavage by means of in vitro fertilization (80%) and parthenogenetic activation (58%) than the CRYOIVM (28%; p<0,0001; 28%; p=0,0002, respectively) and the IVM-CRYO groups (26%; p<0,0001; 22%, p<0,0001,respectively) Analysis of blastocyst formation rates and hatching after FIV and AT in CRYO-IVM and IVM-CRYO groups were null. Vitrification of bovine oocytes causes great impairment of their reproductive capacity regardless of the stage of maturation at the time of freezing. However the vitrified immature oocytes submitted to IVM maintained their capacity of nuclear maturation, as they achieved MII stage. This study was not able to determine which stage was better in reducing crio damage, as both stages (VG and MII) presented equally impaired by the process.
