Aberrant histone methylation in mouse early preimplantation embryos derived from round spermatid injection
Round spermatid injection (ROSI) is the last resort and recourse for men with nonobstructive azoospermia to become biological fathers of their children. However, the ROSI-derived offspring rate is lower than intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in mice (20% vs. 60%). This low success rate has hindered the spread of ROSI in ART (Assisted Reproductive Technology). However, the cause of the ROSI-zygote-derived low offspring rate is currently unknown. In the previous studies, we reported that H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 exhibited ectopic localizations in male pronuclei (mPN) of ROSI-zygotes, suggesting that the carried over histone to zygotes conveys epigenetic information. In this study, we analyzed other histone modifications to explore unknown abnormalities. H3K36me3 showed an increased methylation state compared to ICSI-derived embryos but not for H3K4me3. Abnormal H3K36me3 was corrected until 2-cell stage embryos, suggesting a long window of reprogramming ability in ROSI-embryos. Treatment with TSA of ROSI-zygotes, which was reported to be capable of correcting ectopic DNA methylation in ROSI-zygotes, caused abnormalities of H3K36me3 in male and female PN (fPN) of the zygotes. In contrast, round spermatid TSA treatment before ROSI, which was reported to improve the preimplantation development of ROSI-zygotes, showed beneficial effects without toxicity in fPN. Therefore, the results suggest that TSA has some negative effects, but overall, it is effective in the correction of epigenetic abnormalities in ROSI-zygotes. When attempting to correct epigenetic abnormalities, attention should be paid to epigenomes not only in male but also in female pronuclei.journal articl

大気中微量シアン化水素の濾紙による捕集について
application/pdfA new method for the collection of trace concentration of hydrogen cyanide in air was studied for the purpose of economizing the sampling time, Hydrogen cyanide was captured reacting with the reagent coated on a filter. Alkali and nickel salts were examined as the coating reagent. The most suitable filter for collection is prepared as follows. The filter ordinarily used for aerosol collection was dipped in an aqueous solution of ammoniacal nickel chloride (or nitrate). Then it was air-dried and stored in a desiccator which had been saturated with ammonia gas just before its use. The collection efficiency depended on the volume of sample air and was more than 95% when the air containing 5~200ppb hydrogen cyanide was led at avelocity of 5 meters per minute. It was hardly affected by variations of temperature and humidity and by the presence of sulfur dioxide or nitrogen dioxide in the concentration of the order of urban atmosphere. The recovery of hydrogen cyanide of ppb order ranged from 90 to 100%, when the sample air was led to the filter at flow rate of 200 liters per minute for 20minutes using high volume air sampler with sampling area of 400 c㎡.departmental bulletin pape
