LSM family member 14 (LSM14) belongs to the RNA-associated protein (RAP) family that is widely expressed in different species, and whose functions include associating and storing mRNAs. In the present study, we found that LSM14b was essential for oocyte meiotic maturation. Lack of LSM14b caused oocyte meiotic arrest at metaphase, and misalignment of chromosomes, as well as abnormal spindle asse...
in teleosts the insulin-like growth factor-i, a member of igf system, play an important role in the control of growth and reproduction including metabolism, cell division, oogenesis, final oocyte maturation and secretory activity. this system is controlled by several hormones and metabolic status. serum igf-i, thyroxine (t4) and cortisol levels were studied in two female brood stocks (caught fr...
Variations in the amount of different RNA species were investigated during in vitro maturation of bovine oocytes. Total RNA content was estimated to be 2 ng before meiosis, and after meiosis resumption, no decrease was observed. Ribosomal RNA did not appear to be degraded either, whereas poly(A) RNA was reduced by half after meiosis resumption, from 53 pg to 25 pg per oocyte. Real-time polymera...
We describe a 28 year old male with a pseudodicentric Y chromosome who suffered from azoospermia attributed to maturation arrest of the primary spermatocyte, as diagnosed by testicular biopsy. Chromosome analysis, using G, Q and C banding techniques, revealed an abnormal karyotype of 45,X[7]/46,X,psu dic (Y)(pter-->q11.2::q11.2-->pter)[33]. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) DNA analysis did not d...
BACKGROUND Male infertility caused by a maturation arrest of spermatogenesis is a condition with an abrupt stop in spermatogenesis, mostly at the level of primary spermatocytes. The etiology remains largely unknown. METHODS We focused on patients with a complete arrest at the spermatocyte level (n = 9) and used array comparative genomic hybridization to screen for deletions or duplications th...
Growth factors of the gp130 family promote oligodendrocyte differentiation, and viability, and myelination, but their mechanisms of action are incompletely understood. Here, we show that these effects are coordinated, in part, by the transcriptional activator Krüppel-like factor-6 (Klf6). Klf6 is rapidly induced in oligodendrocyte progenitors (OLP) by gp130 factors, and promotes differentiation...
Background: Epigenetic modifications are involved in different cellular processes through regulating chromatin dynamics. histone methylation is an important modification that can be dynamically regulated by histone methyltransferase and histone demethylase enzymes. JMJD1A (also known as JHDM2A and KDM3A) is a histone demethylase specific for H3K9me2/me1. JMJD1A is a key epigenetic regulator tha...
Previous work has demonstrated that the Xenopus protooncogene mosxe can induce the maturation of prophase-arrested Xenopus oocytes. Recently, we showed that mosxe can transform murine NIH3T3 fibroblasts, although it exhibited only 1-2% of the transforming activity of the v-mos oncogene. In this study we have investigated the ability of the v-mos protein to substitute for the mosxe protein in st...
ZFP36L2 protein destabilizes AU-rich element-containing transcripts and has been implicated in female fertility. In the C57BL/6NTac mouse, a mutation in Zfp36l2 that results in the decreased expression of a form of ZFP36L2 in which the 29 N-terminal amino acid residues have been deleted, ΔN-ZFP36L2, leads to fertilized eggs that arrest at the two-cell stage. Interestingly, homozygous ΔN-Zfp36l2...
Long-term exposure to low temperatures during adult maturation might decrease fertility after cold recovery as a consequence of carry-over effects on reproductive tissues. This pattern should be more pronounced in tropical than in temperate species as protective mechanisms against chilling injuries are expected to be more effective in the latter. We initially determined the lower thermal thresh...
