Abstract:
:Early cleavage stage human embryos and 8-cell mouse embryos were snap-frozen after a brief exposure to high concentrations of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO; 2 or 3.5 M) and 0.25 M sucrose and thawed in a warm water bath. Eleven of 12 3- to 8-cell human embryos survived freezing and thawing with more than 50% of their original blastomeres intact. However, pregnancy was not initiated when the 11 embryos were transferred to six patients. It was shown that continuation of embryonic development in vitro and in vivo was significantly better when 8-cell mouse embryos were snap-frozen in 3.5 M DMSO than in 2 M DMSO. When frozen in 3.5 M DMSO, 78% of 8-cell embryos survived on thawing, 84% developed to blastocysts in vitro, 63% implanted, and 42% developed to fetuses. Ultrarapid freezing is a quick and inexpensive method for mouse embryo cryobanking, but further studies are required to confirm the viability of frozen human embryos.
