The genetic constitution of multinuclear blastomeres and their derivative daughter blastomeres.
The presence of multinuclear blastomeres (MNB) has been widely reported in in-vitro-cultured embryos. Multinucleation at the first mitotic division and affecting both blastomeres is considered abnormal and such embryos are not transferred. The objective of this study was to use fluorescent in-situ hybridization (FISH) and probes specific for chromosomes X, Y and 18 to examine the genetic consti...
متن کاملMouse singletons and twins developed from isolated diploid blastomeres supported with tetraploid blastomeres.
The aim of this study was to obtain mice, hopefully identical multiplets, from single diploid blastomeres isolated at the 4-cell stage, or from pairs of sister blastomeres isolated at the 8-cell stage. To this end isolated blastomeres were aggregated with one or two tetraploid carrier embryos produced by electrofusion of 2-cell embryos. Diploid embryos were albino and homozygous for the "a" all...
متن کاملMyosin rings and spreading in mouse blastomeres
The relationship between myosin organization and cell spreading in the preimplantation mouse embryo was studied by indirect immunofluorescence in embryos cultured on lectin-coated substrates. Binding of cell surface polysaccharides to substrate-bound concanavalin A and wheat germ agglutinin induced changes in myosin distribution that resembled those which occur during cell-cell contact interact...
متن کاملSpectrin and calmodulin in spreading mouse blastomeres.
The role of spectrin and its association with calmodulin in spreading mouse blastomeres was investigated. Embryonic spectrin binds 125I-calmodulin in a calcium-dependent fashion in the blot overlay technique. Double-labeling experiments show coordinate redistribution of spectrin and calmodulin in blastomeres preparing to undergo active spreading movement. At this stage cortical spectrin stainin...
متن کاملLaser killing of blastomeres in Caenorhabditis elegans.
The Caenorhabditis elegans embryo is particularly amenable to microscopy and embryological studies because of its short developmental time, transparent shell, and nonpigmented cells. Within the embryo, contacts between cells often establish the polarization of neighboring cells. Blastomere isolation and recombination experiments have led to a wealth of understanding of the events in the four-ce...
