CPEB-mediated tight junction assembly was identified in mammary epithelial cell polarity but not known in early embryos. The objective of this study is to determine expression and function of CPEB2 during blastocyst formation in porcine parthenote developing. Transcriptional level of CPEB was identified by qPCR, and protein expression was observed by immunocytochemistry. Double strand RNA(dsRNA) of CPEB2 was injected into zygotes to identify and cultured in vitro to identify the function of CPEB2. The formation of tight junction protein was confirmed by FITC dextran assay. The overall localization of CPEB3 and cell junction related proteins (ZO-1, CAR, Occludin, E-cadherin, ß-catenin) were also confirmed in CPEB2 knock downed embryos. CPEB2 proteins were identified in nucleus until 8-cell stage, but localized in cytoplasm in morula and blastocyst embryos. Knock down of CPEB2 using double strand RNA reduced development to blastocysts and blastocyst size. FITC-dextran assay showed that GFP-dextran positive embryo was increased in the KD (28.3%) than the control (5.7%). ZO-1, CAR, and OCLN, was mislocalized in CPEB2 KD embryos. These results suggest that the formation of tight junction protein by CPEB2 plays a crucial role in embryonic development in mammals.
