Centrosome Reduction During Gametogenesis and Its Significance1

Manandhar, Gaurishankar, Schatten, Heide, Sutovsky, Peter·2005·Biology of Reproduction

Abstract

Animal spermatids and primary oocytes initially have typical centrosomes comprising pairs of centrioles and pericentriolar fibrous centrosomal proteins. These somatic cell-like centrosomes are partially or completely degenerated during gametogenesis. Centrosome reduction during spermiogenesis comprises attenuation of microtubule nucleation function, loss of pericentriolar material, and centriole degeneration. Centrosome reduction during oogenesis is due to complete degeneration of centrioles, which leads to dispersal of the pericentriolar centrosomal proteins, loss of replicating capacity of the spindle poles, and switching to acentrosomal mode of spindle organization. Oocyte centrosome reduction plays an important role in preventing parthenogenetic embryogenesis and balancing centrosome number in the embryonic cells.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
