At first sight, this may indicate a role for the 'elimination chromatin' in the organisation of the second meiotic spindle.
Regulation of meiotic metaphase by a cytoplasmic maturation promoting factor during mouse oocyte maturation.
It is concluded that careful attention to specific energy substrate supplementation and culture volume is important to optimise spontaneous meiotic maturation in vitro.
In conclusion, the results of this study suggest a positive paracrine effect of co-cultured cumulus cells on meiotic maturation.
In conclusion, somatic cell nuclei are unable to go through meiotic division when introduced into oocyte meiotic cytoplasm, partly due to the abnormal kinetochore distribution.
The c-mos proto-oncogene product is a cytostatic factor responsible for meiotic arrest in vertebrates eggs.
The resumption of meiotic maturation can be triggered also after the liberation of the oocytes from their follicles in vitro.
Stage-specific changes in protein phosphorylation accompanying meiotic maturation of mouse oocytes and fertilization of mouse eggs.
