COMPARATIVE EFFECT OF CRYOPROTECTANTS ON RABBIT EMBRYOS CYTOSKELETON.
Author(s) : VINCENT C.
Type of article: Article
Summary
THE COMPARATIVE EFFECTOF 1-2-PROPANEDIOL AND DMSO ON ONE CELL RABBIT EMBRYO SURVIVAL AFTER FREEZING AND THAWING WAS STUDIED. THE ACTION OF THESE SOLVENTS ON ACTIN DEPOLYMERIZATION WAS EXAMINED BOTH IN EMBRYOS AND IN VITRO. THE HIGH SURVIVAL RATE OBTAINED WITH PROPANEDIOL (72%) AS COMPARED TO DMSO (44%) CAN BE PARTLY ASCRIBED TO ITS DEPOLYMERIZING EFFECT ON MICROFILAMENTS. THE RESULTS SUGGEST THAT MAINTAINING THE ACTIN-LINKED CYTOSKELETON INTEGRITY MAY NOT BE BENEFICIAL TO CRYOPRESERVATION.
