Two forms of oocytes termed SN (surrounded nucleolus) and NSN (nonsurrounded nucleolus) differing for the spatial distribution of nuclear and nucleolar-associated chromatin have been described within the antral compartment of the ovary of a number of mammals. The biological significance of these two kind of oocytes is as yet not completely clear. In previous studies we have shown that prior to ovulation, mouse SN oocytes isolated from the antral compartment, matured and fertilized in vitro have a far better meiotic and developmental competence than NSN oocytes. Immediately after ovulation SN and NSN oocytes remaining in the antral compartment do not develop beyond the 2-cell stage. To further examine the correlation between chromatin distribution and meiotic competence of mouse antral oocytes, in the present study we have analyzed chromosome segregation at the first meiotic division in antral (SN and NSN) and in ovulated oocytes. SN and NSN oocytes were isolated before (48 h post PMSG injection) or after (15 h post–hCG injection) ovulation from ovaries of females of increasing age, they were cultured in vitro to metaphase II, and their aneuploidy rate was examined. Comparison of data obtained before and after ovulation highlights two main points: 1. Following ovulation a statistically significant increase of aneuploidy is observed in antral oocytes in most age groups and it is attributable to SN oocytes. 2. The aneuploidy rate of ovulated oocytes does not increase during female aging. We have found a correlation between chromatin distribution, hormonal status, and the incidence of aneuploidy during the oocyte first meiotic division. Mol. Reprod.

In mammals, the nucleolus of full‐grown oocyte is essential for embryonic development but not for oocyte maturation. In our study, the role of the growing oocyte nucleolus in oocyte maturation was examined by nucleolus removal and/or transfer into previously enucleolated, growing (around 100 µm in diameter) or full‐grown (120 µm) pig oocytes. In the first experiment, the nucleoli were aspirated from growing oocytes whose nucleoli had been compacted by actinomycin D treatment, and the enucleolated oocytes were matured in vitro. Most of non‐treated or actinomycin D‐treated oocytes did not undergo germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD; 13% and 12%, respectively). However, the GVBD rate of enucleolated, growing oocytes significantly increased to 46%. The low GVBD rate of enucleolated, growing oocytes was restored again by the re‐injection of nucleoli from growing oocytes (23%), but not when nucleoli from full‐grown oocytes were re‐injected into enucleolated, growing oocytes (49%). When enucleolated, full‐grown oocytes were injected with nucleoli from growing or full‐grown oocytes, the nucleolus in the germinal vesicle was reassembled (73% and 60%, respectively). After maturation, the enucleolated, full‐grown oocytes injected with nucleoli from full‐grown oocytes matured to metaphase II (56%), whereas injection with growing‐oocyte nucleoli reduced this maturation to 21%. These results suggest that the growing‐oocyte nucleolus is involved in the oocyte's meiotic arrest, and that the full‐grown oocyte nucleolus has lost the ability. Mol. Reprod.

The mammalian germinal vesicle–stage (GV) oocytes are divided into two major types, NSN (non-surrounded nucleolus) and SN (surrounded nucleolus), and at least one intermediate type, pSN (partly surrounded nucleolus), based on large-scale chromatin configuration. In mice, the SN oocytes are considered to be the most meiotically competent, which explains active study of their phenotypic characteristics necessary for improvement of human reproductive technologies. One of such characteristics is the position of the GV (nucleus) relative to the center of the oocyte. However, the current data on this issue are contradictory and even completely absent for pSN oocytes. In this work, we have studied the GV position in 187 mouse GV oocytes belonging to NSN, SN, and pSN types using different approaches known from the literature. Our results suggest that (1) the most abundant in all examined types of oocytes are central GVs (43–66%) and the least abundant are peripheral GVs (12–39%); the pSN oocytes are closer to SN oocytes rather than to NSN oocytes according to the GV position; (3) the position of the nucleus in mouse GV oocytes is an ambiguous marker of large-scale chromatin configuration and, correspondingly, maturation competence of the oocyte; (4) the diversity of the GV position in NSN, SN, and pSN oocytes most likely reflects the ability of GVs to migrate; and (5) assessment of the GV position according to three variants (central, peripheral, and intermediate) is more informative as compared with two variants (central and peripheral). 相似文献

The synthesis and intracellular distribution of actin were studied in isolated dictyate and metaphase II mouse oocytes by (1) sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of newly synthetized oocyte protein and (2) cytochemical F-actin labeling by fluorescent phalloidin. Unpermeabilized, fully grown oocytes bound phalloidin intensely at the level of the zona pellucida (ZP), such ZP-associated actin representing a significant portion of total actin found in these cells. In contrast, phalloidin binding to ZP was very low in growing oocytes and was undetectable in ovulated, metaphase II eggs. When ZP-associated actin of fully grown oocytes was removed by prolongedly exposing oocytes to α-chymotrypsin, the amount of newly synthesized actin displayed by cumulus-enclosed oocytes was reduced to a level comparable to that shown by oocytes isolated from granulosa cells. We demonstrate that ZP-associated actin belongs to granulosa cell processes that remain within the ZP as a consequence of oocyte isolation procedures. We conclude that actin synthesis of mouse oocytes is not regulated by granulosa cells. 相似文献
