Cryopreservation of male and female gonial cells by vitrification in the critically endangered cyprinid honmoroko <Emphasis Type="Italic">Gnathopogon caerulescens</Emphasis>

We investigated the feasibility of cryopreservation of spermatogonia and oogonia in the critically endangered cyprinid honmoroko Gnathopogon caerulescens using slow-cooling (freezing) and rapid-cooling (vitrification) methods. Initially, we examined the testicular cell toxicities and glass-forming properties of the five cryoprotectants: ethylene glycol (EG), glycerol (GC), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), propylene glycol (PG), and 1,3-butylene glycol (BG), and we determined cryoprotectant concentrations that are suitable for freezing and vitrification solutions, respectively. Subsequently, we prepared the freezing solutions of EG, GC, DMSO, PG, and BG at 3, 2, 3, 2, and 2 M and vitrification solutions at 7, 6, 5, 5, and 4 M, respectively. Following the cryopreservation of the testicular cells mainly containing early-stage spermatogenic cells (e.g., spermatogonia and primary spermatocytes), cells were cultured for 7 days and immunochemically stained against germ cell marker protein Vasa. Areas occupied by Vasa-positive cells indicated that vitrification led to better survival of germ cells than the freezing method, and the best result was obtained with 5 M PG, about 50% recovery of germ cells following vitrification. In the case of ovarian cells containing oogonia and stage I, II, and IIIa oocytes, vitrification with 5 M DMSO resulted the best survival of oogonia, with equivalent cell numbers to those cultured without vitrification. The present data suggest that male and female gonial cells of the endangered species G. caerulescens can be efficiently cryopreserved using suitable cryoprotectants for spermatogonia and oogonia, respectively.     

Development of cryopreservation for maintaining yellow catfish Pelteobagrus fulvidraco sperm

Yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco) is a candidate freshwater fish for aquaculture in China with its high consumer demand. The aim of this study was to examine the possibility of storage of the sperm of yellow catfish by cryopreservation in liquid nitrogen. Experiments were designed to investigate the effects of the different combinations of three extenders (Ringer extender, Kurokura-1 extender and D-15 extender) and three cryoprotectants (DMSO, Glycerol and Methanol) on the cryopreservation of yellow catfish sperm. Post-thaw sperm motility, fertilization and hatching rate were detected to evaluate the reliability of sperm cryopreservation. The results demonstrated that Ringer extender and 10% methanol was the best combination for protecting the sperm during freezing in liquid nitrogen by a three-step method and thawing in a water bath at 37 °C for 60 s. In this combination for cryopreservation, sperm maintained the highest post-thaw motility (65 ± 5%), fertilization (90.47 ± 3.67%) and hatching rate (88 ± 4%). And more interestingly, the fertilization and hatching rate were similar to those of fresh sperm (97.55 ± 2.74% and 92 ± 5%). Successful sperm cryopreservation techniques for yellow catfish have been developed for hatchery purpose.     

史氏鲟精子超低温冷冻保存研究

An Efficient Methodology for Cryopreservation of Spermatozoa of Red Seabream, Pagrus major, with 2-mL Cryovials

The aim of this study was to optimize the cryopreservation protocols for the sperm of red seabream, Pagrus major. The 2‐mL cryovials and programmable freezer were employed for cryopreservation. Six extenders, six cryoprotectants in various concentrations ranging from 6 to 20% (v/v), four cooling rates, and three thawing temperatures were evaluated by postthaw sperm motility and fertility. The ratio of sperm to egg for postthaw sperm fertilization trials was experimentally standardized and was optimal at 500:1. The best motility of postthaw sperm (79.4 ± 4.7% to 88.6 ± 8.0%), fertilization rates (89.6 ± 2.9 to 95.6 ± 1.9%), and hatching rates (85.3 ± 5.1% to 91.4 ± 4.3%) were achieved when Cortland extender, dimethyl sulfoxide (15, 18, and 20%) or ethylene glycol (9, 12%) as cryoprotectants, 20 C/min as the cooling rate, and 40 C as the thawing temperature were employed. Moreover, the results on embryonic development were not significantly different between cryopreserved sperm and fresh sperm during incubation process. In conclusion, these methods of cryopreservation of red seabream sperm are suitable for routine aquaculture application and preservation of genetic resources.     

Preliminary studies on the cryopreservation of gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) embryos

Vitrification could provide a promising tool for the cryopreservation of fish embryos. In order to achieve successful cryopreservation, several parameters should be taken into account in the design of a vitrification protocol. In the present study some relevant factors were investigated (permeable and non-permeable cryoprotectant toxicity, toxicity of vitrificant solutions, adequate container for embryo loading and temperature of thawing) using two gilthead seabream embryonic development stages (tail bud and tail-bud-free). Permeabilized embryos were incubated in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), methanol (MeOH), ethylene glycol (EG) and 1,2-propanediol (PROH) in concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 6 M for 10 and 30 min and in 5%, 10% and 15% polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), 10%, 15% and 20% sucrose or 0.1%, 1% and 2% X1000® for 2 min. After treatment, embryos were washed and incubated in seawater until hatched. The toxicity of permeable cryoprotectants increased with concentration and exposure time. EG was best tolerated by the embryos. Exposure to non-permeable cryoprotectants did not affect the hatching rate except at F stage. Six vitrificant solutions (DMSO—V1, V2 and V3 and EG—V1, V2 and V3) were tested using a stepwise incorporation protocol. The DMSO-based solutions contained 5 M DMSO + 2 M MeOH + 1 M EG plus 5% PVP, 10% sucrose or 2% X1000® and the EG-based solutions contained 5 M EG + 2 M MeOH + 1 M DMSO plus 5% PVP or 10% sucrose. Before loading the embryos into 0.5 ml straws or 1 ml macrotubes, toxicity tests were effected with these solutions. Our results demonstrated that DMSO-based solutions were better tolerated by seabream embryos than EG-based solutions. After thawing (water bath, 0 or 25 °C), embryos were evaluated by stereoscopic microscopy and the percentage of embryos with intact morphology was registered. The highest percentage of embryos with intact morphology (28%) was observed in samples frozen in macrotubes and thawed at 25 °C. Several malformations associated with ice crystal formation inside the embryos were detected. None of these embryos achieved hatching. Our results suggest that the absence of a proper incorporation of cryoprotectants prior to vitrification is the main problem that must be overcome. This procedure should be optimized in order to avoid ice crystal formation inside embryo compartments.     

Effect of cryoprotectants, extenders and freezing rates on the fertilization rate of frozen striped catfish, Pangasius hypophthalmus (Sauvage), sperm

The effects of four cryoprotectants (methanol, MeOH; dimethyl sulphoxide, DMSO; dimethyl acetamide, DMA; and ethylene glycol, EG), three extenders (calcium‐free Hanks' balanced salt solution, C‐F HBSS, Hanks' balanced salt solution, HBSS and sodium chloride, NaCl) and two different freezing procedures (one‐ and two‐step) on the cryopreservation of striped catfish (Pangasius hypophthalmus (Sauvage)) sperm were investigated. Sperm were frozen using a controlled‐rate freezer in 250 μL straws and stored for 2 weeks in a liquid nitrogen (LN₂) container. They were then airthawed at room temperature, and fertilization, motility and viability were assessed. The highest fertilization rate of 41% (81% of control) was achieved with the combination of 12% DMSO and 0.9% NaCl using a one‐step freezing procedure (10°C min^?1). Also, DMA resulted in a higher fertilization rate (30% or 51% of the control) than MeOH (18% or 38% of the control) or EG (8% or 12% of the control). In addition, the three extenders used did not affect fertilization rates after cryopreservation with each cryoprotectant. There were no significant differences among the three cryoprotectant concentrations and between the one‐ and two‐step freezing procedures. However, fertilization rates of cryopreserved sperm were significantly lower than the controls (P<0.05). The results of this study indicate that high fertilization rates of striped catfish eggs can be achieved using cryopreserved sperm when frozen at 10°C min^?1 in DMSO or DMA with either 0.9% NaCl or C‐F HBSS.

Cryopreservation of scaly carp (Cyprinus carpio) sperm: effect of different cryoprotectant concentrations on post-thaw motility, fertilization and hatching success of embryos

The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of various cryoprotectants on post-thaw sperm quality and fertilizing capacity of cryopreserved scaly carp (Cyprinus carpio) semen. The present study focused on freezing of scaly carp sperm utilizing a practical and inexpensive protocol for aquaculture. Semen was diluted with Kurokura’s extender composing 3.6 g/l NaCl, 10 g/l KCl, 0.22 g/l CaCl₂, 0.08 g/l MgCl₂ and 0.2 g/l NaHCO₃. The extender contained three different cryoprotectants (DMSO, DMA and egg yolk) at ratios of 5, 10 and 15 %. Semen was placed into 0.25-ml straws and exposed to liquid nitrogen vapor (?120 °C) using an insulated box with an adjustable tray for 10 min and then plunged into liquid nitrogen (?196 °C) tank. The thawing process was performed in a water bath at 40 °C for 10 s. The results indicated that type of cryoprotectants and their concentrations are rather effective in scaly carp sperm cryopreservation on post-thaw sperm quality, while they are very important in order to obtain high fertilization rates. The highest fertilization rate was determined as 96.4 ± 0.15 % with 15 % egg yolk, while the highest hatching rate was determined as 99.3 ± 0.80 with 15 % DMA. In conclusion, the applied cryopreservation method for scaly carp sperm is suitable to fertilize high amounts of eggs.
