The electrofusion method, used extensively in livestock cloning, cannot be used in mice, because it is believed that the mouse oocytes are more susceptible to detrimental effects of electrical stimulus than oocytes from other species. Reports on whether a delayed activation after electrofusion and a premature chromosome condensation (PCC) is essential for efficient cloning are inconclusive. To address these issues, effects of pulsing on activation and MPF activity of nonenucleated oocytes and effects of delayed activation and MG132 treatment on donor nuclear PCC and preimplantation development of embryos cloned by electrofusion or nuclear injection were compared between different cytoplast ages in mice and goats. The results indicated that the use of oocytes collected early after donor stimulation would make it possible to conduct somatic cell nuclear transfer in mice by electrofusion. Whether a delayed activation is essential was dependent upon the age, or rather, the level, of MPF activity of the cytoplasts at the time of electrofusion, as was the requirement for MG132 treatment. The competence for blastocyst formation of cloned embryos was highly correlated with the level of donor nuclear PCC in recipient cytoplasts. The nuclear injection technique was more adaptable to older cytoplast ages, and hence less dependent on drugs for inhibition of MPF inactivation, compared to electrofusion.
