摘要
This work investigated the effect of zinc oxide nanoparticles functionalized with curcumin (ZnO(np) + CUR) supplementation during the in vitro embryo culture (IVC) on the bovine in vitro embryo production, and the cellular antioxidant response. The cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) were matured, fertilized and then the presumptive zygotes were cultured in the medium in the absence (0 & mu;M-control) or presence of different concentrations of ZnO(np) + CUR (3, 6 or 12 & mu;M). After IVC, the embryos were destined either to assay intracellular ROS levels and mitochondrial membrane potential. The results demonstrated that only the addition of 12 & mu;M ZnO(np) + CUR during IVC decreased intracellular ROS production and the rate of blastocyst production when compared to the control (p < .05). In conclusion, ZnO(np) + CUR addition during the IVC impaired in concentration-dependent-manner bovine in vitro embryo production.
