    This study aims to evaluate the effects of nano-ozone solution (NZS) on canine oocyte nuclear maturation, associated with the alterations of antioxidant and oxidant status and cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1), cyclin B1 gene expressions. Oocytes were cultured in four distinct concentrations of NZS (0.5, 1, 2, and 5 mu g/mL) and parthenogenetically activated. The rates of oocytes arrested at the Germinal Vesicle (GV), Germinal Vesicle Breakdown (GVBD), Metaphase I (MI), and Metaphase II (MII) stages were statistically different among groups (P < 0.05). The oocytes cultured in 1 <mu>g/mL NZS yielded the best oocyte maturation rate at the MI and MII stages; however, the lowest maturation and high degeneration rates were observed in Group E. The measurements of Malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced Glutathione (GSH), Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), and Ferric Reducing/Antioxidant Power assay (FRAP) were performed from IVM culture media. No statistical difference was observed in SOD and MDA results (P > 0.05). GSH levels were statistically significant between Group AGroup E (p = 0.003), Group B-Group E (p = 0.045), and Group E-Group D (p = 0.021). The culture media in Group D and Group E had high FRAP concentrations and significantly differed between groups (P < 0.05). CDK1, and cyclin B1 genes, which are subunits of maturation-promoting factor (MPF), are upregulated in Group B and Group C, while are downregulated in oocytes of Group E. This study showed that low, controlled doses of NZS (1 <mu>g/mL) supplementation could improve the meiotic competence of canine oocytes and lead to positive response in expressions of CDK1 and cyclin B1 on the gene level.
