Progesterone-induced meiosis in Xenopus laevis oocytes: a role for cAMP at the "maturation-promoting factor" level.

Abstract:

:Cholera toxin inhibition of progesterone-induced meiosis of Xenopus laevis oocytes in vitro has been correlated with increased cAMP levels. Inhibition of germinal vesicle breakdown (Gvbd) and cAMP increase occurred after a lag period of 2 hr, when cholera toxin was injected, or 4--5 hr, when applied externally. The ability of the maturation-promoting factor (Mpf) to provoke Gvbd when injected into recipient oocytes was found to be dependent upon whether the oocytes had been exposed to cholera toxin alone or to toxin and progesterone. With the former, cAMP levels were elevated and Mpf activity was abolished, whereas with the latter, the increase in cAMP was less pronounced and Mpf activity was observed. Injection of cAMP or its 8-thio derivatives shortly before the appearance of progesterone-induced Mpf abolished Gvbd. If injected earlier or later, no inhibition was observed. In contrast, cholera toxin inhibited maturation even when added several hours before progesterone, suggesting a sustained accumulation of cAMP. No Gvbd occurred when 8-thio-methyl-cAMP was injected together with Mpf. These data suggest that cAMP is involved in the control of the formation/amplification and/or activity of Mpf-a result which may be of general significance in cell division mechanisms.
