摘要
The immature germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes proceed through metaphase I (MI) division, extrude the first polar body, and become mature metaphase II (MII) oocytes for fertilization which is followed by preimplantation and postimplantation development until birth. Slc25a26 is the gene encoding S-adenosylmethionine carrier (SAMC), a member of the mitochondrial carrier family. Its major function is to catalyze the uptake of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) from cytosol into mitochondria, which is the only known mitochondrial SAM transporter. In the present study, we demonstrated that excessive SLC25A26 accumulation in mouse oocytes mimicked naturally aged oocytes and resulted in lower oocyte quality with decreased maturation rate and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) by impairing mitochondrial function. Increased level of Slc25a26 gene impacted gene expression in mouse oocytes such as mt-Cytb which regulates mitochondrial respiratory chain. Furthermore, increased level of Slc25a26 gene in fertilized oocytes slightly compromised blastocyst formation, and Slc25a26 knockout mice displayed embryonic lethality around 10.5 dpc. Taken together, our results showed that Slc25a26 gene plays a critical role in oocyte maturation and early mouse development.
