Hardening cannot be prevented by inhibitors of peroxidase or by a tyrosine analogue. Culture in anaerobic conditions is very effective in preventing ZP hardening. If the oocyte is cultured surrounded by its own follicle cells or in contact with cumuli oophori obtained from superovulated females, hardening is much reduced. The results suggest that the “spontaneous” hardening in cultured ovarian oocytes is not due to a cortical reaction, and that a diffusible factor is produced by follicle cells that protect the ZP from hardening.","PeriodicalId":12668,"journal":{"name":"Gamete Research","volume":"9 1","pages":"107-113"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87030065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, aphidicolin did not inhibit the conversion of morula embryos to blastocyst embryos, although aphidicolin-treated blastocysts lost their blastocoel and collapsed into a compact form after prolonged exposure to the drug. Both 8-cell and blastocyst embryos were found to be susceptible to inhibition of DNA synthesis by α-amanitin.","PeriodicalId":12668,"journal":{"name":"Gamete Research","volume":"17 1","pages":"155-160"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78730317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Staining at different pH values reveals that the stain could demonstrate some spermatidspecific nucleoproteins in elongating nuclei and the spermatozoa-specific protamines in elongated nuclei of the boar, the ram, and the stallion. The stained substances enter or leave the nuclei at precise steps in spermiogenesis. They follow several ways inside a special apparatus made rigid with the manchette. The apparatus is composed of the endoplasmic reticulum, continuous with the nuclear envelope, and of the nuclear pockets continuous with the nuclear pores. In the stallion and the boar, cytoplasmic granules, surrounded by a double wall of membranes, fuse with the nuclear envelope at the time the protamines enter the nucleus.","PeriodicalId":12668,"journal":{"name":"Gamete Research","volume":"53 1","pages":"137-152"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78893056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The viability, structural characteristics, and pattern of polypeptides synthesized by the isolated cells were determined. Electron microscopic analysis revealed that the isolated principal cells were intact and retained their polarized morphology. Several light microscopic protocols were employed to evaluate the percentage of epithelial cells in the suspensions. These included (1) the visualization of the pattern of FITC-lectin binding in which the principal cells could be identified by their polarized fluorescence; (2) the visualization of prominent autofluorescent granules in the cell cytoplasm which appeared to be characteristic of only epithelial cells; and (3) immunochemical staining with an antikeratin antibody which was reactive only with cells of epithelial origin. These structural probes indicated that between 80% and 90% of the isolated cells were epithelial in nature. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed a complex pattern of polypeptides synthesized by the epithelial cells; these results are compared to those of earlier studies utilizing minced whole epididymis.","PeriodicalId":12668,"journal":{"name":"Gamete Research","volume":"79 1","pages":"161-178"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91225710","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A Ca2+-deficient environment is unfavorable for long-term survival of spermatozoa. Sperm capacitation may occur in Ca2+-deficient media, but not as efficiently as in normal media. The acrosome reaction definitely requires extracellular Ca2+. Other processes or phenomena that require extracellular Ca2+ are initiation and maintenance of hyperactivated motility of spermatozoa, penetration of acrosome-reacted spermatozoa into the zona pellucida, fusion of the spermatozoa with eggs, and the development of pronuclear eggs into two-cell embryos. Extracellular Ca2+ is apparently unnecessary for the attachment of spermatozoa to the zona and egg surfaces, decondensation of the sperm nucleus, and the development of sperm and egg pronuclei within the egg. These results were compared with data obtained in other species such as the sea urchin, mouse, rat and guinea pig.","PeriodicalId":12668,"journal":{"name":"Gamete Research","volume":"55 1","pages":"323-344"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83814124","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
