Stops and starts in mammalian oocytes: recent advances in understanding the regulation of meiotic arrest and oocyte maturation.
Mammalian oocytes grow and undergo meiosis within ovarian follicles. Oocytes are arrested at the first meiotic prophase, held in meiotic arrest by the surrounding follicle cells until a surge of LH from the pituitary stimulates the immature oocyte to resume meiosis. Meiotic arrest depends on a high level of cAMP within the oocyte. This cAMP is generated by the oocyte, through the stimulation of...
متن کاملOn the surface lattice of microtubules: helix starts, protofilament number, seam, and handedness
The tubulin monomers of brain microtubules reassembled in vitro are arranged on a 3-start helix, irrespective of whether the number of protofilaments is 13 or 14. The dimer packing is that of the B-lattice described for flagellar microtubules. This implies that the tubulin core of microtubules contains at least one helical discontinuity. Neither 5-start nor 8-start helices have a physical signi...
متن کاملWaking the health plan giant: Group Health Cooperative stops counting sheep and starts counting key tobacco indicators.
Implementing a comprehensive approach to decreasing tobacco use in a large health plan requires hard work and commitment on the part of many individuals. We found that major organisational change can be accomplished and sustained. Keys to our success included our decision to remove access barriers to our cessation programmes (including cost); obtaining top leadership buy-in; identifying account...
متن کاملEffects of pushing height on trunk posture and trunk muscle activity when a cart suddenly starts or stops moving.
Unexpected sudden (un)loading of the trunk may induce inadequate responses of trunk muscles and uncontrolled trunk motion. These unexpected perturbations may occur in pushing tasks, when the cart suddenly starts moving (unloading) or is blocked by an obstacle (loading). In pushing, handle height affects the user's working posture, which may influence trunk muscle activity and trunk movement in ...

To test this charge, parity, and time-reversal (CPT) symmetry, it is desirable to know the fundamental properties of particles such as the proton to high precision. Schneider et al. used a double ion trap to determine the magnetic moment of a single trapped p...
