Symmetry breaking and polarity establishment during mouse oocyte maturation.
Mammalian oocyte meiosis encompasses two rounds of asymmetric divisions to generate a totipotent haploid egg and, as by-products, two small polar bodies. Two intracellular events, asymmetric spindle positioning and cortical polarization, are critical to such asymmetric divisions. Actin but not microtubule cytoskeleton has been known to be directly involved in both events. Recent work has reveal...
متن کاملPolarity and asymmetry during mouse oogenesis and oocyte maturation.
Cell polarity and asymmetry play a fundamental role in embryo development. The unequal segregation of determinants, cues, and activities is the major event in the differentiation of cell fate and function in all multicellular organisms. In oocytes, polarity and asymmetry in the distribution of different molecules are prerequisites for the progression and proper outcome of embryonic development....
متن کاملSpace Asymmetry Directs Preferential Sperm Entry in the Absence of Polarity in the Mouse Oocyte
Knowledge about the mechanism that establishes embryonic polarity is fundamental in understanding mammalian development. In re-addressing several controversial claims, we recently proposed a model in which mouse embryonic polarity is not specified until the blastocyst stage. Before fertilization, the fully differentiated oocyte has been characterized as "polarized," and we indeed observed that ...
متن کاملOocyte Enucleation Phase in Mouse Cloning
Mouse oocytes were placed in Hepes-T6 containing 7.5 μg/ml cytochalasin B and 5μg/ml Hoechst prior to enucleation, and enucleation was performed on oocytes using the manipulator. The oocyte held in place by gentle suction of a holding pipette (oocyte diameter approx.70 μm). The metaphase spindle (arrow) is aspirated into an enucleation pipette (1).
متن کاملphylogeography and genetic diversity of the lesser mouse- eared bat (myotis blythii) in iran
in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...
