Winston et al. ([1995] J. Cell Sci., 108:143-151) have shown recently that short (6 min) exposure of spindle intact oocytes from Swiss mice to 8% ethanol induced activation of most oocytes, while disruption of the spindles in these oocytes by nocodazole, before and during ethanol exposure, completely inhibited oocyte activation. We compared the activation rates (ARs) of nocodazole-treated and intact oocytes...
