11069114 Yes Yes Thus, a compensation mechanism exists in mouse oocytes and formation of the first polar body can be achieved in two ways: either after migration of the spindle to the cortex in wild-type oocytes, or after elongation, without migration, of the first meiotic spindle in mos-/- oocytes.
10857582 Yes Yes From these results, we propose that the spindle-associated pMAPKs play an important role in the events occurring during the meiosis I/meiosis II transition, such as chromosome separation, spindle elongation and cleavage furrow formation in pig oocytes.
10775165 Yes Yes We postulate that in the centrosome-free meiotic spindle, NuMA aggregates the spindle microtubules at the midzone during anaphase and telophase and that the polarity of meiotic spindle microtubules might become inverted during spindle elongation.
