摘要:

取样后胚胎冷冻保存技术是胚胎植入前遗传学检测(preimplantation genetic testing,PGT)的重要组成部分,在胚胎性别控制、基因筛查、基因组选择及辅助生殖领域具有重要应用价值。然而,胚胎取样操作可能导致透明带损伤、细胞数量减少及表观遗传异常等问题,限制了冷冻保存效率。近年来,通过优化取样方法(如极体活检、卵裂球活检及滋养外胚层活检)、改进培养基成分(如添加L-精氨酸、谷胱甘肽等)以及优化冷冻程序(如玻璃化冷冻技术),显著提高了取样后胚胎的冷冻保存效率。此外,非侵入性技术(如胚胎培养液中的游离DNA分析)和表观遗传修饰(如DNA甲基化调控)为减少胚胎损伤提供了新思路。本文综述了取样后胚胎冷冻保存的损伤机制及保护措施,重点探讨了透明带修复、表观遗传调控及冷冻效率提升的最新研究进展。通过总结现有技术的优势与不足,旨在为开发高效、安全的取样后胚胎冷冻保存技术提供理论依据和技术参考,推动其在畜牧业和辅助生殖领域的应用与推广。

Abstract:

Post-sampling embryo cryopreservation technology is a critical component of preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), holding significant application value in embryo sex selection, genetic screening, genomic selection, and assisted reproduction. However, embryonic sampling procedures may lead to zona pellucida damage, reduced cell count, and epigenetic abnormalities, thereby limiting cryopreservation efficiency. Recent advancements, including optimized sampling methods (e.g., polar body biopsy, blastomere biopsy, and trophectoderm biopsy), improved culture medium formulations (e.g., supplementation with L-arginine and glutathione), and refined cryopreservation protocols (e.g., vitrification techniques), have markedly enhanced the cryopreservation efficiency of post-sampling embryos. Furthermore, non-invasive techniques (e.g., analysis of cell-free DNA in embryo culture medium) and epigenetic modifications (e.g., DNA methylation regulation) offer novel approaches to minimize embryonic damage. This review summarizes the mechanisms of cryopreservation-induced damage in post-sampling embryos and protective strategies, with a focus on cutting-edge advancements in zona pellucida repair, epigenetic regulation, and cryopreservation efficiency. By evaluating the strengths and limitations of existing technologies, this review aims to provide theoretical foundations and technical references for developing safe and efficient cryopreservation protocols, thereby promoting their application and adoption in livestock breeding and assisted reproductive technologies.
