In vitro fertilization (IVF) is an artificial reproduction technique used to produce embryos and combined with cryopreservation technologies enables the improvement of genetic selection. Usually, the supplements used in embryo cryopreservation media are from animal sources ( bovine serum albumin-BSA) and might inhibit blastocyst development. This study proposes to substitute BSA supplementation with Steam Alpha CRYO3 20% in the ethylene glycol (EG)- cryopreservation medium. The CRYO3 is a media without animal sources and contains carbohydrates, amino acids, vitamins and HEPES. The objective was to compare the effects of CRYO3 supplementation with those of BSA 0.4%, on the viability and quality of embryos after thawing. Bovine ovaries were maintained at 35oC in PBS containing amikacin sulphate 250 mg, and heparin 100UI/mL for 1h. In vitro, oocytes were maturated for 24h, fertilized for 18-22h with sperm 2x106Cells/mL and then, cultured for 7 Days. A total of 290 Embryos, divided into 176 and 114 Embryos for CRYO3 and control, respectively, were frozen according to IETS guidelines. Thawed embryos were cultured for 24h. Embryo stage and quality were evaluated according to IETS. The number of thawed embryos that have differentiated to the blastocyst stage after 24h of culture, was 90±7 and 161±11 for control and CRYO3, respectively. For quality 1, embryos were 55 and 75% (p=0.001) in control and Cryo3, respectively. Statistic analysis was done with ANOVA one-way. These results show that CRYO3 plays a relevant role in embryos viability during cryopreservation and might be auseful media for cryopreservation of in vitro bovine embryos.

Abstract
Embryo cryopreservation media usually contain animal-derived products, such as bovine serum albumin (BSA). These products present two major disadvantages: an undefined variable composition and a risk of pathogen transmission. We aimed to evaluate the effect of replacing BSA in rabbit embryo rapid cooling “freezing” and warming media with a chemically defined medium with no animal-derived products: STEM ALPHA.Cryo3 (“Cryo3”). A total of 1540 rabbit morulae were divided into three cryopreservation groups (group 1: BSA, group 2: 20% Cryo3 and group 3: 100% Cryo3) and a fresh controls group. After rapid cooling, embryos were cultured (in vitro approach), or transferred into synchronized does (in vivo approach). In the in vitro approach, post-warm survival rates obtained with 100% Cryo3 (94.9 %) were superior to BSA (90.8%) and 20% Cryo3 (85.6 %). The blastocyst formation rate was similar between BSA, 20% Cryo3 and 100% Cryo3 groups (85.1, 77.9 and 83.3 %, respectively), as was the expansion / hatching rate (63.1, 63.4 and 58.0%, respectively) and embryo mitochondrial activity. In the in vivo approach, pregnancy (80.0, 68.0 and 95.2 %, respectively), implantation (40.5, 45.9 and 44.8%, respectively), and live-foetus rates (35.6, 35.5 and 38.1 %, respectively) were similar between the three groups. To conclude, Cryo3 can replace BSA in rabbit embryo rapid cooling “freezing” and warming media.

Animal-derived products are widely used in sperm cryopreservation for their cryoprotective properties. These components, however, tend to be replaced because of sanitary risks. STEMALPHA.CRYO3 (Ref. 5617; Stem Alpha, Saint-Genis-l’Argentiere, France), called ‘‘CRYO3,’’ is a chemically defined preservation medium
currently used for freezing human tissue and adult stem cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a CRYO3-based medium on ram sperm freezing regarding in vitro parameters and in vivo fertility. Semen from nine Charolais rams was collected using an artificial vagina, then split and frozen using two media: a CRYO3- based medium or a control medium containing egg yolk (10%) and milk (45%). Sperm membrane integrity (propidium iodide [PI]/SYBR-14 and calcein AM/ethidium homodimer-1), acrosome integrity (FITC-PNA/PI), and mitochondrial membrane potential ( JC-1) were assessed using flow cytometry, while functional membrane integrity was assessed using a hypo-osmotic swelling test and motility parameters, evaluated by computerassisted sperm analysis. Pregnancy rates, prolificacy, and the average daily weight gain (DWG) of lambs were evaluated after performing 195 laparoscopic inseminations. The control medium showed significantly higher results than CRYO-based medium for all in vitro parameters, except for linearity and straightness (motions parameters). Conversely, field trials showed no significant difference between the control medium and the CRYO3-based medium for pregnancy rates (72.2% and 67.9%, respectively), prolificacy (1.8 and 1.6, respectively), and the DWG (0.34 and 0.35 kg/d, respectively). This preliminary study showed that CRYO3 cannot replace egg yolk and milk in freezing extenders for commercial purposes. However, as laparoscopic inseminations allowed a 67% pregnancy rate, CRYO3-based medium remains an option for international transport or long-term storage of genetic diversity.

Cancer cells transfer invasive properties through collagen-tracks
Frederic Saltel et al. 2023 July 24th, 2023 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-3143192/v1
Abstract
Invasion and migration through the extracellular matrix are prerequisites for metastasis, the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. During tumor development, the extracellular matrix is remodeled, including by overexpressing type I collagen that facilitate cancer dissemination. Most studies have focused on events at the leading edge as cells invade. We describe a new event at the trailing edge, as cells detach from the matrix. We show that small vesicles containing the collagen receptor DDR1 are left behind on collagen fibrils in the migration path. We named these structures attached to the collagen fibers « collagentracks ». The vesicles are similar in size to exosomes but lack the exosome markers, and they also are different to migrasomes. We show that collagen-track formation is stimulated by DDR1 and by factors that promote adhesion, including collagen cross-linking. We report the protein, mRNA and miRNA content of collagen-tracks. They contain adhesion proteins, suggesting that they form when membrane fragments containing adhesions are torn from the cell as it migrates along collagen fibrils. We show that collagen-tracks are deposited by breast cancer cells in 3D matrices in vitro and in vivo. Collagen-tracks are stable and can be taken up by surrounding cells, promoting epithelial to mesenchymal transition, matrix degradation and invasion, finally leading to increased lung metastasis of breast cancer cells. In summary, we have identified and characterized a new vesicle entity directly attached to collagen fibrils that plays a role in cell-cell communication and can transfer invasive properties to surrounding cells. We conclude that cancer-related collagen-tracks are a new player acting locally to drive tumor invasion and metastasis
