The structure of symplasmic early oocytes and their enveloping sheath cells in the polychaete, Platynereis dumerilii.

Abstract:

:1. Early oocytes of Platynereis dumerilii are found in clusters floating in the coelom. The oocytes of a cluster form a syncytium which is enveloped by several sheath cells. 2. At stage 2, only a single sheath cell per cluster remains, and it penetrates the group of rounded oocytes, enveloping each one of them. At stage 4, this cell contains a reticular basket made up of bundles of filaments and is inferred to be degenerating, from the presence of vacuoles, clumps of pigment-like material, and atypical mitochondria. 3. Synaptonemal complexes are typical of the nuclei of stage 2 oocytes. Oocytes of stage 4 (early vitellogenesis) contain stacks of endoplasmic reticulum in a distinctive arrangement, with interspersed electron-dense masses. Similar masses accumulate in the cytoplasm close to the nucleus and adjacent to the nuclear pores. 4. From the present observations, a physical supporting rather than a nutritive function is attributed to the sheath cell, which ensures cohesion among the oocytes connected with each other throughout the cluster phase by cytoplasmic bridges. This finding is discussed with respect to conclusions drawn from oocyte transplantation experiments.
