- W1966897725 abstract "Cytochalasin B (CB) (2 × 10−6 M) prevents the incorporation of sperm into the eggs of Lytechinus pictus and Strongylocentrotus purpuratus as judged by light and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). At lower concentrations of CB (2 × 10−7 M), sperm are successfully incorporated into the egg, but their migration in the area of the egg cortex is impaired. The site of action of CB on the sperm may be on the initial rotation of the sperm nucleus in the cortex; the subsequent migration is not affected by CB. Although sperm incorporation is prevented at the higher CB concentrations, the eggs become activated—as judged by cortical reaction, increased protein synthesis and increased respiration. These findings raise the concept that egg activation by sperm could result from some pre-fusion event and hence that sperm-egg fusion would not be a prerequisite for the triggering of development. An alternative hypothesis is that fusion occurs between the acrosome process membrane and egg membrane, but since CB has destroyed the integrity of the cortex actin, the fusion bridge is so weak that it cannot be maintained without some contractile or cytoskeletal support by the cortex. The sperm may activate the CB-treated egg in the same manner as pricking with a microelectrode sometimes does." @default.
