Effect of presence of corpora lutea on cumulus expansion of in vitro matured bovine oocytes selected by trypan blue and brilliant cresyl blue tests
Trypan Blue (TB) and Brilliant Cresyl Blue (BCB) are used to select and determine viability and competence of oocytes, however, the effects of corpora lutea on cumulus expansion during in vitro maturation are still undetermined. Cumulus-oocytes complexes (COCs) from ovaries with ipsilateral (ICL), contralateral (CCL) and without corpora lutea in either ovary (OCL) were selected by visual examination, TB and BCB staining, and matured in vitro to evaluate cumulus expansion. The overall percentage of visually selected COCs was similar in ICL, CCL and OCL (P > 0.05). Proportions of live and mature COCs were similar in all groups (P > 0.05). The overall percentage of BCB+ COCs was 70.1%. BCB+ ICL COCs had less cumulus expansion (60.5%) than BCB+ CCL and OCL COCs (75.7 and 71.4%, respectively; P < 0.01). BCB− ICL COCs had less cumulus expansion (20.0%) than BCB− CCL and OCL (39.7 and 46.1%; P < 0.01). BCB+ CCL and OCL COCs showed the highest cumulus expansion index (P < 0.01). Presence of corpus luteum in the ovary affects negatively cumulus cells expansion. TB and BCB staining facilitate the selection of oocytes with higher degrees of cumulus expansion

New Algorithms Improving PML Risk Stratification in MS Patients Treated With Natalizumab
none60siOverview: We assessed the role of age and disease activity as new factors contributing to establish the risk of progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy in multiple sclerosis patients treated with natalizumab in 36 University Hospitals in Europe. We performed the study in 1,307 multiple sclerosis patients (70.8% anti-John Cunninghan virus positive antibodies) treated with natalizumab for a median time of 3.28 years. Epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory variables were collected. Lipid-specific IgM oligoclonal band status was available in 277 patients. Factors associated with progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy onset were explored by uni- and multivariate logistic regression. Results: Thirty-five patients developed progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy. The multivariate analysis identified anti-John Cunninghan virus antibody indices and relapse rate as the best predictors for the onset of this serious opportunistic infection in the whole cohort. They allowed to stratify progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy risk before natalizumab initiation in individual patients [area under the curve (AUC) = 0.85]. The risk ranged from <1/3,300 in patients with anti-John Cunninghan virus antibody indices <0.9 and relapse rate >0.5, to 1/50 in the opposite case. In patients with lipid-specific IgM oligoclonal bands assessment, age at natalizumab onset, anti-John Cunninghan virus antibody indices, and lipid-specific IgM oligoclonal band status predicted progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy risk (AUC = 0.92). The absence of lipid-specific IgM oligoclonal bands was the best individual predictor (OR = 40.94). The individual risk ranged from <1/10,000 in patients younger than 45 years at natalizumab initiation, who showed anti John Cunningham virus antibody indices <0.9 and lipid-specific IgM oligoclonal bands to 1/33 in the opposite case. Conclusions: In a perspective of personalized medicine, disease activity, anti-lipid specific IgM oligoclonal bands, anti Jonh Cunninghan virus antibody levels, and age can help tailor natalizumab therapy in multiple sclerosis patients, as predictors of progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy.mixedToboso, Inmaculada; Tejeda-Velarde, Amalia; Alvarez-Lafuente, Roberto; Arroyo, Rafael; Hegen, Harald; Deisenhammer, Florian; Sainz de la Maza, Susana; Alvarez-Cermeño, José C; Izquierdo, Guillermo; Paramo, Dolores; Oliva, Pedro; Casanova, Bonaventura; Agüera-Morales, Eduardo; Franciotta, Diego; Gastaldi, Matteo; Fernández, Oscar; Urbaneja, Patricia; Garcia-Dominguez, José M; Romero, Fernando; Laroni, Alice; Uccelli, Antonio; Perez-Sempere, Angel; Saiz, Albert; Blanco, Yolanda; Galimberti, Daniela; Scarpini, Elio; Espejo, Carmen; Montalban, Xavier; Rasche, Ludwig; Paul, Friedemann; González, Inés; Álvarez, Elena; Ramo, Cristina; Caminero, Ana B; Aladro, Yolanda; Calles, Carmen; Eguía, Pablo; Belenguer-Benavides, Antonio; Ramió-Torrentà, Lluis; Quintana, Ester; Martínez-Rodríguez, José E; Oterino, Agustín; López de Silanes, Carlos; Casanova, Luis I; Landete, Lamberto; Frederiksen, Jette; Bsteh, Gabriel; Mulero, Patricia; Comabella, Manuel; Hernández, Miguel A; Espiño, Mercedes; Prieto, José M; Pérez, Domingo; Otano, María; Padilla, Francisco; García-Merino, Juan A; Navarro, Laura; Muriel, Alfonso; Frossard, Lucienne Costa; Villar, Luisa MToboso, Inmaculada; Tejeda-Velarde, Amalia; Alvarez-Lafuente, Roberto; Arroyo, Rafael; Hegen, Harald; Deisenhammer, Florian; Sainz de la Maza, Susana; Alvarez-Cermeño, José C; Izquierdo, Guillermo; Paramo, Dolores; Oliva, Pedro; Casanova, Bonaventura; Agüera-Morales, Eduardo; Franciotta, Diego; Gastaldi, Matteo; Fernández, Oscar; Urbaneja, Patricia; Garcia-Dominguez, José M; Romero, Fernando; Laroni, Alice; Uccelli, Antonio; Perez-Sempere, Angel; Saiz, Albert; Blanco, Yolanda; Galimberti, Daniela; Scarpini, Elio; Espejo, Carmen; Montalban, Xavier; Rasche, Ludwig; Paul, Friedemann; González, Inés; Álvarez, Elena; Ramo, Cristina; Caminero, Ana B; Aladro, Yolanda; Calles, Carmen; Eguía, Pablo; Belenguer-Benavides, Antonio; Ramió-Torrentà, Lluis; Quintana, Ester; Martínez-Rodríguez, José E; Oterino, Agustín; López de Silanes, Carlos; Casanova, Luis I; Landete, Lamberto; Frederiksen, Jette; Bsteh, Gabriel; Mulero, Patricia; Comabella, Manuel; Hernández, Miguel A; Espiño, Mercedes; Prieto, José M; Pérez, Domingo; Otano, María; Padilla, Francisco; García-Merino, Juan A; Navarro, Laura; Muriel, Alfonso; Frossard, Lucienne Costa; Villar, Luisa
