A combined treatment with progesterone, anti-inhibin serum, and equine chorionic gonadotropin improves number of ovulated oocytes in young C57BL/6J mice

Superovulation procedures are routinely and widely used in mouse reproductive technology. Previous studies have shown that a large number of oocytes can be obtained from adult mice (> 10 weeks old) using a combined treatment with progesterone (P4) and anti-inhibin serum (AIS). However, these effe...

Previous studies have shown that a large number of oocytes can be obtained from adult mice (> 10 weeks old) using a combined treatment with progesterone (P4) and anti-inhibin serum (AIS). However, these effects have not been fully investigated in young (4 weeks) C57BL/6J mice. Here, we found that a modified superovulation protocol (combined treatment with P4, AIS, eCG (equine chorionic gonadotropin), and hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin); P4D2-Ae-h) improved the number of oocytes compared to the control (eCG and hCG) (39.7 vs. 21.3 oocytes/mouse). After in vitro fertilization, pronuclear formation rates were 69.3% (P4D2-Ae-h group) and 66.2% (control group). After embryo transfer, 46.4% (116/250) of the embryos in the P4D2-Ae-h group successfully developed to term, which was comparable to the control group (42.9%; 123/287 embryos). In conclusion, our protocol (P4D2-Ae-h) was effective for superovulation in young C57BL/6J mice.
