Cdk1 inactivation induces post-anaphase-onset spindle migration and membrane protrusion required for extreme asymmetry in mouse oocytes

Nature Communications, 2018
Female meiotic divisions are asymmetric with the formation of large oocytes and small polar bodies, thought to result from cortical spindle placement before anaphase.

Oocyte maturation [PDF]

Human Reproduction, 1998
Primary oocytes recovered from small and growing follicles of > or = 3 mm in the ovaries of untreated women, can be matured in vitro, will fertilize and develop in vitro, and when transferred to the patient, develop to term. However, the implantation rate of cleaved embryos has been disappointingly low and when embryos are allowed to develop beyond the

Effects of endocrine-disrupting chemical exposure on zebrafish ovarian follicles [PDF]

, 2017
The process of oocyte maturation involves both nuclear and cytoplasmic events that are essential for the production of viable eggs and subsequent fertilization in sexually reproducing animals.

The influence of timing of oocytes retrieval and embryo transfer on the IVF-ET outcomes in patients having bilateral salpingectomy due to bilateral hydrosalpinx

Frontiers in Surgery, 2023
ObjectiveThe objective of the study was to investigate whether the sequence of oocyte retrieval and salpingectomy for hydrosalpinx affects pregnancy outcomes of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) patients.Study DesignThere were 1,610 ...

Biosynthesis and expression of zona pellucida glycoproteins in mammals [PDF]

, 2001
The zona pellucida (ZP) is an extracellular matrix surrounding the oocyte and the early embryo that exerts several important functions during fertilization and early embryonic development.

On cyclins, oocytes, and eggs [PDF]

Molecular Reproduction and Development, 1997
Oocyte and egg are suitable model systems for studying cell division since meiotic maturation resembles a G2/M transition and early embryonic divisions are precisely timed and occur without zygotic transcription. The analysis of oocytes and eggs from different species provides the opportunity to understand the roles of proteins that the critical to the

The oocyte spindle midzone pauses Cdk1 inactivation during fertilization to enable male pronuclear formation and embryo development

Cell Reports, 2022
Summary: Inactivation of cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1), controlled by cyclin B1 proteolysis, orders events during mitotic exit. Here, we used a FRET biosensor to study Cdk1 activity while simultaneously monitoring anaphase II and pronuclear (PN ...

The Role of Oocyte Organelles in Determining Developmental Competence

Biology, 2017
The ability of an oocyte to undergo successful cytoplasmic and nuclear maturation, fertilization and embryo development is referred to as the oocyte’s quality or developmental competence.
