Cholesterol-loaded cyclodextrin improves motility and survival of cryopreserved zebrafish (Danio rerio) sperm
We studied the impact of modulating cholesterol levels in zebrafish sperm plasma membranes using cholesterol-loaded methyl-β-cyclodextrin (CLC) and unloaded methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MβC). Zebrafish sperm were treated with these substances before cryopreservation, and post-thaw sperm motility and in vitro fertilization (IVF) rates were compared between treated and untreated samples. Our findings indicate that adding cholesterol to sperm membranes increases post-thaw motility, motile cell count, and motile cell survival within a 0.5–4.0 mg per 1.2 × 108 cell concentration range. Conversely, depleting cholesterol using MβC at 1.0 and 2.0 mg per 1.2 × 108 cells reduced these parameters. On average, all CLC-treated sperm samples produced a 15 % higher IVF rate compared to untreated sperm. Including CLC in the extender before cryopreservation is beneficial for post-thaw sperm quantity and quality in zebrafish.
