| Research Abstract |
Histone Deacetylases (HDACs) are known to play important roles during preimplantation development. However, the roles of acetylation of non-histone proteins mouse embryos still remains poorly understood. In this study, we have focused on acetylation of alpha-tubulin and HDACs in terms of oocyte quality during one-cell stage. First, we found that treatment with NAM, nicotinamide, an inhibitor for Class III HDACs inhibited cellular fragmentation and spindle elongation after postovulatory in vitro aging. Also, the alpha-tubulin increased acetylation during aging, suggesting not only histone but non-histone protein acetylation also increases with oocyte aging. Further, once an oocyte has been activated, histone and nonhistone proteins are hyperacetylated partly due to a reduction of HDAC activity. TSA treatment of zygotes enhances their acetylation. Thus, we provide the evidence that protein acetylation play important roles for oocyte quality which affect subsequent embryonic development.
