6 PREFACE With a few notable exceptions, mammalian preimplantation embryos grown in vitro are likely to exhibit sub-optimal or retarded development. This may be manifested in different ways, depending on the species and on the stage(s) of embryonic development that are being examined. For example, bovine embryos often experience difficulty in cleaving under in vitro conditions, and usually cease development at about the 8-cell stage (Wright and Bondioli, 1981). The block to development is stage-dependent; embryos cultured for 24 hr from the I-cell stage are much more capable of developing into viable blastocysts after transfer to oviducts than embryos cultured for 24 hr from the 4-cell stage prior to transfer (Eyestone et oz., 1985). Similar problems with in vitro embryo development are encountered in other species. Pig embryos can be grown up to the 4-cell stage in vitro but usually no further (Davis and Day, 1978). In the golden hamster, in the rat and in many outbred strains of mice, development of zygotes in vitro is blocked at the 2-cell stage (Yanagimachi and Chang, 1964; Whittingham, 1975). Even with some inbred mouse strains, embryo development is reduced if very early cleavage stages are used as the starting point for in vitro culture (Spielmann et oz., 1980). A common finding is that embryos grown in vitro have reduced cell counts (Harlow and Quinn, 1982; Kane, 1985) and their viability is reduced (Bowman and McLaren, 1970; Papaioannou and Ebert, 1986) compared to equivalent developmental stages recovered from mated animals. All of these difficulties show that we have a great deal to learn about culture conditions suitable for sustaining normal growth of preimplantation embryos. Resolution of these technical problems should be a high priority for investigators who are interested in analyzing mechanisms of embryo development in different species. Knowledge of culture requirements for embryos of various species will tell us much about their metabolism and the regulation of development, just as in the pioneering work of Biggers et oz. (1971), Brinster (1971), Whitten (1957, 1971) and others using mouse embryos. Because of these pioneering efforts, mouse embryos have become firmly established as the models for the study of early (preimplantation) development. The notable advances in our understanding of the regulation of development that have derived from studies on mouse embryos, some of which vii
7 viii PREFACE are presented in this book, stand as elegant testimony to the validity of this approach. An enormous amount of information has been obtained on the cellular, molecular and genetic aspects of early embryonic development in the mouse. Yet the heavy emphasis placed on the study of the inbred mouse has fostered neglect of other important species. Cleavage stage embryos from some of these species, such as the domesticated animals, may be of considerable commercial interest, while others, such as non-human primate embryos, have great theoretical and practical interest because of their similarity to human embryos. Thus, there is an urgent need for comparative data on preimplantation embryogenesis using a wide variety of animal species. It is rather ironic that human embryos, derived from in vitro fertilized (IVF) eggs, appear to be very easy to grow in vitro, even to the blastocyst stage. This would seem to undermine one major justification for studies with animal embryos, namely that information gained from such studies may help to increase understanding of human embryogenesis. However, the situation concerning experimental embryology in humans is quite complex. In many parts of the world, invasive experimentation on human preimplantation embryos, or even culture of embryos to the blastocyst stage, is proscribed for a variety of ethical and medico-legal reasons. Since the primary objective of human IVF is to transfer embryos, usually at the 4- to 8-cell stage, back to the infertile patient, "hard" information concerning (e.g.) optimal culture conditions for human embryos is difficult to obtain; factorially-designed experiments can hardly be done under these conditions. Moreover, about 90% of all IVF human embryos fail to develop to term following transfer, and we do not know what proportion of these failures is due to abnormalities of early embryo development in vitro. It is quite common for IVF primate embryos to undergo apparently normal cleavage in vitro, only to cease development before the morula stage (Bavister et ai., 1983a; Boatman et al., 1987). Early cessation of embryo development also seems to be common in vivo (Enders et ai., 1982). In view of all these considerations, a strong case can be made for the necessity of studies using animal embryos in order to obtain information that is potentially useful for understanding human reproductive problems. The present situation is that we know a great deal about regulation of embryo development in the mouse and very little in other species. This difference could soon be eliminated if techniques (e.g., culture media) devised for mouse embryos were applicable to other mammalian species, and if information obtained on (e.g.) the nutritional requirements for mouse embryos were found to be representative of mammals in general. Unfortunately, neither of these situations appears to be true. From the limited amount of data available, it appears that pre implantation embryos of several mammals are much more demanding in their requirements for growth in vitro than are mouse embryos, and perhaps are also more sensitive to the trauma associated with collection and culture. For example, mouse embryos have been grown from the 2-cell stage to blastocysts in the absence of protein (Cholewa and Whitten, 1970) and do not require any amino acid source for development in vitro up to the late zonal blastocyst stage. In contrast, rhesus monkey embryos (at least from the 8-cell stage) need a complex culture medium with protein supplement (Morgan et al., 1984), while growth of rabbit and hamster embryos is very dependent on exogenous amino acids (Kane and Foote, 1970; Bavister et al., 1983b).
8 PREFACE Ix Information is urgently needed that will allow us to bridge the gulf of knowledge between embryos of the mouse and those of other mammals, not only in terms of our ability to culture these embryos successfully, but also in reaching a consensus about the similarities and differences between species. Then advances made using mouse embryos could rapidly be tested in other species, and embryos of the latter group could also be investigated for their own particular developmental characteristics. The production of this book represents one effort to build such a bridge. Each contributing author is in the forefront of his or her particular area of embryogenesis research. Subjects of the chapters were chosen to represent a range of topics, in terms of species and of analytical approach. It will be obvious, for reasons already mentioned, that research described using mouse embryos is, in general, at a more advanced stage than studies using other species. Authors were requested to provide technical details of their research as well as the embryological data obtained using these methods; this dual emphasis should help other investigators to confirm or extend the work and to facilitate start-up for those who are beginning to study embryo development in vitro. Mechanisms involved in the fertilization process have not received attention in this book, partly because this would have excessively broadened the scope of the work, and partly because several books dealing specifically with fertilization have been published in the last few years. For similar reasons, I have largely avoided inclusion of IVF techniques, although there is presently considerable interest in IVF and the consequences for embryogenesis. Readers interested in the topics of fertilization and IVF are referred to works by Mastroianni and Biggers (1981), Beier and Lindner (1983), Hartmann (1983), Trounson and Wood (1984) and Seppala and Edwards (1985). By focusing on developmental events following fertilization and up to periimplantation stages, the contributing authors have brought a wide variety of interests and techniques to bear on a single topic: the mechanisms regulating growth of pre implantation embryos in vitro. The contributors have generally described their own most recent work in specialized areas of interest, while presenting this information against a background review of work from other laboratories. The bibliographic lists compiled by each contributor should by themselves be valuable aids to research, since the literature on preimplantation embryogenesis tends to be scattered widely among many different journals, books and symposium proceedings. At the end of the book are two Appendices. In Appendix I, I have attempted to synergize some of the ideas of the contributing authors in order to point out some problem areas and lines of enquiry that should help to accelerate the pace of comparative research using pre implantation embryos. In addition, I have provided some technical notes on embryo culture, focusing on areas cited by the authors as being critically importan4 and also drawing from experiences in my own laboratory. Appendix II lists the names, and the addresses as far as possible, of suppliers of materials and equipment used in embryo culture research. The sole criterion for inclusion of names and items in this list was that the supplier or manufacturer was cited by one or more of the contributing authors. Not only is it convenient to group this information in one place, but it also avoids unnecessary duplication and (I hope) makes the text more readable.
9 x PREFACE A major reason for undertaking this work was to stimulate wider interest in the study of pre implantation embryogenesis. Time will tell if we have succeeded in this goal; however, the authors have all risen to the occasion splendidly in their attempts to meet it, and I thank each of them for their unstinting efforts. I am indebted to Mary Born, Kirk Jensen, John Matzka and their staff at Plenum Press for their advice and practical help with the editorial process; to Amy Magulski for her tireless efforts in helping me to prepare the book for publication; and to Jean Lasecki for her heroic work on the index. I am grateful to the Department of Veterinary Science and to the Regional Primate Research Center, University of Wisconsin-Madison, for support during the preparation of this book. Finally, I would like to dedicate this book to my Ph.D. supervisor, Dr. C. R. "Bunny" Austin, who is emeritus Charles Darwin Professor of Animal Embryology at Cambridge University. I am immensely indebted to him for his help in getting my research career started, and for his advice and generous encouragement of my work. Barry D.
