The aim of this study was to investigate the developmental rate, lipid and mitochondrial distribution and gene expression in oocyte-derived embryos selected on the basis of brilliant cresyl blue (BCB) staining. Lipid content and mitochondrial distribution in Day 8 blastocysts were evaluated by fluorescence intensity, while gene expression was analyzed by real-time PCR. The proportion of blastocysts (30.9%) was greater (P<0.05) in BCB+ than in BCB- oocytes (13%) but not different (P>0.05) from the control group (28.2%). Total cell number was also greater in BCB+ (155.1 +/- 36.2) than in BCB- (116.6 +/- 40.5) and control (127.5 +/- 35.7) blastocysts. Furthermore, the apoptotic cell number was less in BCB+ (3.7 +/- 4.4) than in BCB- blastocysts (8.7 +/- 8.7) but not different from the control group (5.9 +/- 3.9). BCB+ embryos contained more mitochondria compared to BCB- embryos (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in intercellular lipid accumulation in embryos from all groups. Interferon-tau (IFN tau), transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFB1) and secreted seminal-vesicle Ly-6 protein I (SSLP1) gene expression was greater in BCB+ than in BCB- blastocysts. By contrast, BcI2-associated X protein (BAX) and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2/B1 (HNRNPA2B1) gene expression was greater in BCB- than in BCB+ and control embryos. In conclusion, oocyte-derived embryos selected on the basis of BCB staining showed differences in developmental rate, quality, mitochondrial content and target gene expression compared to control embryos.
