To develop an in vitro strategy to support the growth of early-stage follicles and produce mature oocytes competent for fertilization. Whole ovaries from 8-day-old mice were cultured for 4 days, then secondary follicles were isolated and cultured for 12 days in a 3-dimensional (3-D) alginate or fibrin-alginate hydrogel matrix. University-affiliated laboratory. Mice None Histologic evaluation of follicle development, steroid hormone production, and rates of oocyte maturation, oocyte fertilization, and embryo formation. Culture of 8-day-old mouse ovaries for 4 days resulted in transition of the follicle population from primordial and primary follicles to secondary follicles, similar to that seen in a 12-day-old ovary. Isolated secondary follicles cultured for 12 days showed larger increases in oocyte diameter and more frequent antrum formation and theca cell differentiation in the FA-hydrogel matrix compared with the alginate matrix (P<0.05). Steroid hormone secretion patterns were consistent with the changes in follicle morphology and cell differentiation observed in the cultured follicles. Compared with oocytes from alginate follicle cultures, a greater number of oocytes retrieved from the FA-based follicle cultures progressed to metaphase I (MI), reached metaphase II (MII) and could be fertilized and cleaved to two-cell embryos (P<0.05). The organ culture plus FA-hydrogel follicle culture strategy produced a very high rate of oocyte progression to MII (88 ± 8.7%) and formation of 2-cell embryos (54 ± 4%). A strategy combining whole ovary culture of early-stage follicles and subsequent FA hydrogel in vitro follicle culture produced a high percentage of oocytes competent for fertilization and may provide new options for fertility preservation in women and prepubertal girls facing fertility-threatening diseases or treatments.
