Stage-dependent changes in culture medium osmolality promote porcine oocyte maturation in vitro by Lixiang Liu, Lixiang Liu, Yu Tang, Yu Tang, Jing Shao, Jing Shao, Bingfeng Fan, Bingfeng Fan, Yifeng Yang, Yifeng Yang, Ying Zhang, Ying Zhang, Xiangyuan Zhao, Xiangyuan Zhao, Hailong Xue, Hailong Xue, Huimin Sun, Huimin Sun, Xulin Zhang, Xulin Zhang, Yushi Zhang, Yushi Zhang, Baozeng Xu, Baozeng Xu

“…In the presence of 1 mM glycine, we adjusted the osmolality of the culture medium from low to high (290 mOsM for the first 22 h and 320 mOsM thereafter) by adding raffinose, which cannot be used by animal cells, in a culture stage-dependent manner.ResultsStage-dependent adjustment of simplified medium PZM-3 osmolarity (290 mOsM for the first 22 h and 320 mOsM thereafter) in the presence of 1 mM glycine significantly improved the quality of porcine oocyte maturation in vitro, manifested by the oocyte maturation rate, functional mitochondrial distribution and activity, the transcript levels of glycolysis genes in granulosa cells, and subsequent embryonic developmental ability and ROS levels.ConclusionOur study demonstrates that optimizing cell volume regulation can further enhance the developmental potential of oocytes cultured in vitro.…”
