Microtubule and microfilament organization in maturing human oocytes

1 Aug 1998

Abstract excerpt

Various stages of immature human oocytes were imaged for microtubule, microfilament and chromatin organization. After germinal vesicle breakdown, a small microtubule aster was observed near the condensed chromatin. The asters appeared to elongate and encompass the condensed chromatin. At metaphase I stage, microtubules were detected in the meiotic spindle. The meiotic spindle in metaphase II was a symmetric,...
