- W2060266942 abstract "Fertilization results in cortical granule exocytosis, which is thought to be involved in modifications of the zona pellucida that constitute the zona pellucida block to polyspermy. A previous report demonstrated that a decrease in the number of Lens culinaris agglutinin-staining granules, which are likely to be cortical granules, occurred during in vivo mouse oocyte maturation with arrest at metaphase II, as well as the formation of a cortical granule-free domain in the area of the metaphase II spindle (Ducibella et al., 1988a, Ducibella et al., 1988b, Dev. Biol. 130, 184–197). We extend these observations by reporting here that germinal vesicle-intact oocytes matured in vitro to metaphase II in either the absence or the presence of serum develop a cortical granule-free domain and have reduced numbers of cortical granules when compared to germinal vesicle-intact oocytes; these changes are similar to those of oocytes matured in vivo. The reduction in the number of cortical granules requires germinal vesicle breakdown, since it is prevented by dibutyryl cAMP, which inhibits germinal vesicle breakdown in vitro. The ability of oocytes to respond to the calcium ionophore A23187 with a reduction in the number of cortical granules is also associated with meiotic maturation and develops between 7 and 12 hr after initiation of maturation. The maturation-associated reduction in the number of cortical granules is likely to represent cortical granule exocytosis, since this reduction is accompanied by the formation of a cortical granule-free domain and a conversion of ZP2 to ZP2f when the oocytes are matured in vitro in serum-free medium; this zona pellucida modification occurs following fertilization and is thought to be due to cortical granule exocytosis. In contrast, the loss of cortical granules and development of the cortical granule-free domain of oocytes matured in vitro in the presence of serum is not accompanied by the modification of ZP2. The inhibitory effect of serum on the ZP2 modification may afford in vivo a physiological mechanism to prevent a precocious modification of the zona pellucida that could result in a premature block to polyspermy and hence inhibit fertilization." @default.
