On the contrary, porcine in vitro sperm capacitation and fertilisation media usually contains a standard concentration of25 mmol/L, and one of the main problems presented is the unacceptable high incidence of polyspermy. This work hypothesised that by modifying the HCO3-concentration of the medium, the output of in vitro sperm capacitation and fertilisation could be increased.Results: Once exposed to the capacitation medium, the intracellular pH(pHi) of spermatozoa increased immediately even at low concentrations of HCO3-, but only extracellular concentrations of and above 15 mmol/L increased the substrates protein kinase A phosphorylation(pPKAs). Although with a significant delay, 15 mmol/L of HCO3-stimulated sperm linear motility and increased other late events in capacitation such as tyrosine phosphorylation(Tyr-P) to levels similar to those obtained with 25 mmol/L. This information allowed the establishment of a new in vitro fertilisation(IVF)system based on the optimization of HCO3-concentration to 15 mmol/L, which led to a 25.3% increment of the viable zygotes(8.6% in the standard system vs. 33.9%).Conclusions: Optimising HCO3-concentrations allows for establishing an IVF method that significantly reduced porcine polyspermy and increased the production of viable zygotes. A concentration of 15 mmol/L of HCO3-in the medium is sufficient to trigger the in vitro sperm capacitation and increase the fertilisation efficiency in porcine.展开更多
