食蟹猴-猪异种体细胞核移植(Interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer, iSCNT)研究旨在由iSCNT胚胎建立具有与人类相似遗传背景的胚胎干细胞 (ESCs), 作为医学和基础科学研究的实验材料。文章探讨了两种组蛋白脱乙酰化酶抑制剂(HDACi)-Trichostatin A(TSA)和Valproic acid(VPA)处理浓度、时间与培养液(PZM-3和HECM-10)组合对食蟹猴-猪iSCNT胚胎早期发育的影响。结果表明, 在PZM-3中添加10 nmol/L TSA处理48 h组的囊胚率显著高于对照组(22.78% vs 9.86%, P<0.05)。但是, 不管在PZM-3或是HECM-10中, 添加2~10 mmol/L VPA处理均不能提高iSCNT胚胎早期发育能力。文章证明了TSA处理可以提高食蟹猴-猪iSCNT胚胎早期发育能力。
Long-tailed macaque-pig interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT) is beneficial to yield embryonic stem cells from iSCNT embryos with similar genetic background as human, which can be used as materials for medical and basic research. The primary objective of this study was to investigate the effects of concentrations and treatment duration of two histone deacetylase inhibitors–Trichostatin A (TSA) and Valproic acid (VPA) and two different embryo culture media (PZM-3 and HECM-10) on the in vitro development of iSCNT embryos. The results suggested that when PZM-3 was used as the embryo culture medium, the blastocyst rate of 10 nmol/L TSA treatment for 48 h was significantly higher than the control group (22.78% vs 9.86%, P<0.05). However, neither in PZM-3 nor in HECM-10, 2-10 mmol/L VPA treatment did not increase the in vitro developmental potential of iSCNT embryos. It was concluded that TSA treatment could enhance the in vitro developmental potential of long-tailed macaque-pig iSCNT embryos.
