Bovine in vitro embryo production: the effects of fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF10).

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

In an attempt to improve in vitro embryo production, we investigated the effect of fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF10) during in vitro maturation on the developmental capacity of bovine oocytes.

Material and methods

Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) were aspirated from follicles of 3-8 mm diameter. After selection, the COCs were matured in medium with or without 0.5 ng/mL of FGF10. The effect of FGF10 during in vitro maturation (IVM) on nuclear maturation kinetics and expansion of the cumulus cells was investigated. Oocyte competence was assessed by the production and development speed of embryos and the relative expression of genes associated with embryo quality.

Results

FGF10 delayed the resumption of meiosis from 8 h onwards, but did not affect the percentage of oocytes reaching metaphase II, nor did it increase cumulus expansion at 22 h of maturation. We found no difference between treatments regarding embryo production, developmental speed, and gene expression.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the presence of FGF10 during IVM had no effect on embryo production, developmental speed, and gene expression.

Project description:ObjectiveColorectal cancer (CRC) imposes great health burdens worldwide. Growth factors contribute to cell growth, differentiation, angiogenesis and, most importantly, tumour formation in many types of cancers. Natural antisense transcripts (NATs) are inclusively predicted to play a major role in cancer progression. The present study aims to evaluate the relationship of fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF10) and novel long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) antisense FGF10 (FGF10AS) expression with clinicopathologic features in CRC progression to designate a biomarker for CRC early detection.Materials and methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted on 100 CRC tumour and parallel adjacent normal tissues. We added 30 normal cases to enhance accuracy of the test. The expression levels of FGF10 and FGF10AS were evaluated by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The findings were validated by measuring expression levels in the HT29 and SW480 cell lines. Immunohistochemistry analysis was performed systematically to evaluate FGF10 protein expression. The Mann-Whitney U test with Cox regression analysis were applied. P<0.05 were designated as significant.ResultsA significant increase in expression was observed in FGF10 (P<0.001) along with a significant decrease in FGF10AS (P<0.02) in the tumour tissues in comparison with the adjacent normal tissues. Upregulation of FGF10 and downregulation of FGF10AS expression were strongly correlated with the Tumour, Node, Metastasis (TNM) stage (P<0.007 and P<0.004), vascular invasion (P<0.03 and P<0.01), lymph invasion (P<0.02 and P<0.04), and differentiation (P<0.01 and P<0.02), respectively. Moreover, the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for the prognostic value of FGF10 was about 0.84 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.771-0.912). Linear regression analysis confirmed a negative correlation between FGF10 expression and its antisense transcript (r=-0.02).ConclusionThe relationship between the expression levels of FGF10 and FGF10AS in tumour tissues and adjacent normal tissues indicated that sense and antisense FGF RNAs could be remarkable prognostic biomarkers for achieving effective and primitive treatment.
