Cell specific loss of polarity-inducing ability by later stage mouse preimplantation embryos.

Abstract:

:The individual blastomeres of the preimplantation mouse embryo become polarized during the 8-cell stage. Microvilli become restricted to the free surface of the embryo and this region of the membrane shows increased labeling with FITC-Con A and trinitrobenzenesulfonate (TNBS). Previous studies have shown that this polarity develops in response to asymmetric cell-cell contact with stage specific induction competent blastomeres. In the present study, the ability of later stage embryos to induce 8-cell polarization has been investigated. Newly-formed, nonpolar 8-cell stage blastomeres (1/8 cells) were isolated, then aggregated with morulae, inner cell clusters (from morulae), blastocysts, or inner cell masses (ICM) and cultured for 8 hr. Aggregates were then assayed for polarity. The results show a hierarchy of inducing ability, with the ICM and IC cluster possessing greater activity than the morula and polar trophectoderm of the early blastocyst, while the mural trophectoderm shows very little inducing activity. Furthermore, the inducing ability of the polar trophectoderm decreases with complete expansion and hatching of the blastocyst. These results indicate that the ability to induce 8-cell blastomere polarization is retained by the embryo beyond the 8-cell stage and that this ability is lost with further differentiation.
