Morphokinetics of embryos developed from oocytes matured in vitro.

Abstract：

PURPOSE:In in vitro maturation (IVM) cycles primed with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), both immature and mature oocytes are retrieved from antral follicles sized 8-12 mm. Using time-lapse microscopy, we compared the morphokinetic behavior of embryos developed from oocytes matured in vivo and in vitro, testing the hypothesis that IVM affects preimplantation development. Furthermore, we extended the morphokinetic analysis of these embryos by a comparison with embryos obtained in stimulated assisted reproduction technology (ART) cycles. METHODS:In IVM cycles primed with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)/hCG, prior to sperm microinjection, oocytes surrounded by an expanded cumulus at retrieval and presumably mature (EC-MII) were incubated for 6 h, while immature oocytes enclosed in a compact cumulus (CC) were matured in vitro for 30 h. The morphokinetics of embryos selected for transfer or cryopreservation, derived from EC-MII and CC oocytes, were comparatively and retrospectively analyzed in terms of cleavage times (t2, t3, t4, t5, and t8) and intervals (cc2, cc3, s2, s3). For further comparison, the morphokinetics of embryos selected for transfer or cryopreservation (ICSI) or giving rise to ongoing pregnancies (model) in stimulated ART cycles was also assessed. RESULTS:The morphokinetic behavior of EC-MII and CC embryos was entirely comparable, as suggested by the absence of statistical differences in the averages of all cleavage times and intervals. Almost all cleavage and interval times were also similar between EC-MII, CC, ICSI, and model groups, with the exception of t4 and s2, which were delayed and longer, respectively, in embryos generated in IVM cycles (EC-MII and CC). CONCLUSIONS:These findings do not support the hypothesis that maturation in vitro affects embryo morphokinetics, while they suggest only marginal differences in the morphokinetics of embryos developed from oocytes matured in vivo and in vitro in IVM cycles and embryos developed from mature oocytes recovered in stimulated cycles.
