Résumé

Spermidine (SPD) is an intermediate compound in the polyamine metabolism which takes critical part in a variety of cellular processes. In particular, it has been reported to exert anti-aging effects, suppress the age-related diseases, and extend lifespan across species. However, whether it has the favorable influence on the quality of postovulatory aged oocytes remains elusive. Immunostaining and fluorescence intensity measurement were used to evaluate the effects of postovulatory aging and SPD supplementation on the oocyte fragmentation, spindle/chromosome structure, actin polymerization, dynamics of cortical granules (CGs) and ovastacin, mitochondrial distribution and function, as well as autophagy levels. In addition, in vitro sperm binding assay and in vitro fertilization (IVF) experiment were applied to assess the impacts of postovulatory aging and SPD supplementation on the sperm binding ability and fertilization capacity of oocytes. Here, we showed that supplementation of SPD during postovulatory aging could relieve the deterioration of porcine oocytes. Specifically, we found that postovulatory aging impaired the oocyte quality by damaging the morphological integrity of oocytes, maintenance of spindle/chromosome structure, and dynamics of actin cytoskeleton. Postovulatory aging also weakened the sperm binding ability and fertilization capacity of oocytes by compromising the distribution pattern of CGs and their content ovastacin. Notably, supplementation of SPD attenuated these defects in postovulatory aged porcine oocytes via strengthening mitochondrial function, eliminating excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), inhibiting apoptosis, and enhancing autophagy levels. Altogether, our findings demonstrate that SPD supplementation is a feasible approach to ameliorate the quality of postovulatory aged oocytes, which can be potentially applied to the human assisted reproductive technology (ART) and in vitro production of animal embryos.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Spermidine (SPD) is an intermediate compound in the polyamine metabolism which takes critical part in a variety of cellular processes. In particular, it has been reported to exert anti-aging effects, suppress the age-related diseases, and extend lifespan across species. However, whether it has the favorable influence on the quality of postovulatory aged oocytes remains elusive.
METHODS METHODS
Immunostaining and fluorescence intensity measurement were used to evaluate the effects of postovulatory aging and SPD supplementation on the oocyte fragmentation, spindle/chromosome structure, actin polymerization, dynamics of cortical granules (CGs) and ovastacin, mitochondrial distribution and function, as well as autophagy levels. In addition, in vitro sperm binding assay and in vitro fertilization (IVF) experiment were applied to assess the impacts of postovulatory aging and SPD supplementation on the sperm binding ability and fertilization capacity of oocytes.
RESULTS RESULTS
Here, we showed that supplementation of SPD during postovulatory aging could relieve the deterioration of porcine oocytes. Specifically, we found that postovulatory aging impaired the oocyte quality by damaging the morphological integrity of oocytes, maintenance of spindle/chromosome structure, and dynamics of actin cytoskeleton. Postovulatory aging also weakened the sperm binding ability and fertilization capacity of oocytes by compromising the distribution pattern of CGs and their content ovastacin. Notably, supplementation of SPD attenuated these defects in postovulatory aged porcine oocytes via strengthening mitochondrial function, eliminating excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), inhibiting apoptosis, and enhancing autophagy levels.
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
Altogether, our findings demonstrate that SPD supplementation is a feasible approach to ameliorate the quality of postovulatory aged oocytes, which can be potentially applied to the human assisted reproductive technology (ART) and in vitro production of animal embryos.
