Dynamics of the oocyte cortical cytoskeleton during oogenesis in Rhodnius prolixus.

Abstract:

:The oocyte cortex undergoes dramatic changes during oogenesis in Rhodnius prolixus. Despite numerous studies examining oogenesis in the telotrophic ovariole, none has investigated the ultrastructural details of the oocyte cortex, in particular, the lateral cortical cytoskeleton. Indirect immunofluorescent staining of sections, rhodamine phalloidin staining of whole mounts and scanning and transmission EM of permeabilized and unpermeabilized preparations revealed the dynamic changes of the oocyte cortex from early previtellogenesis through to late vitellogenesis. During early previtellogenesis, oocytes 50-150 mum in length have a smooth oolemma, with no discernible cortical cytoskeleton. During mid to late previtellogenesis (oocytes 150-350 mum in length) a tightly woven network of microfilaments and microtubules forms, excluding mitochondria and Golgi complexes from the lateral cortex. At the onset of vitellogenesis, the follicuiar epithelium becomes patent, and there is an increase in microvilli covering the lateral oocyte surface. The microfilament cores form a discrete pattern that corresponds to the imprint of the follicle cells on the oocyte surface. While the lateral microfilament cytoskeleton becomes more elaborate, the lateral microtubule cytoskeleton diminishes, remaining sparse throughout vitellogenesis. The oocyte cortical cytoskeleton undergoes dramatic changes during oogenesis. These cortical dynamics are intricately related to the cellular and molecular processes that occur during oogenesis.
