139 Effect of lycopene supplementation in maturation medium on production of reactive oxygen species and post-vitrification quality of bovine blastocysts

Abstract: Excessive production and accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) may cause embryo damage associated with oxidative stress. Lycopene, a natural antioxidant, can scavenge singlet oxygen and is one of the most effective antioxidants among carotenoids. We evaluated the effects of supplementation of lycopene (antioxidant), menadione (prooxidant), and their combination during invitro oocyte maturation on ROS generation in matured oocytes and the quality of vitrified-warmed embryos. Cumulus–oocyte complexes, co… Show more

“…Supplementation of bovine COCs with 0.2µM lycopene during their IVM at 40.5°C resulted in higher maturation rate than those matured at the same temperature with no lycopene (Sidi et al 2021). Remarkably, maturation rate of heat-stressed lycopene treated oocytes was comparable to those of matured at standard laboratory temperature (38.5°C) (Sidi et al 2021). Similar trends in oocyte maturation rates under elevated temperature have been observed by the present work, suggesting a conserved effect of lycopene on heat-challenged oocytes.…”

“…Protective effect of lycopene on thermally challenged oocytes has been suggested (Kang et al 2021;Sidi et al 2021).
