ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the effect of dynein inhibitor on mouse oocyte in vitro maturation and its cyclin B1 transcription level.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Immature mouse oocytes were cultured in vitro with a known dynein ATPase activity inhibitor-sodium orthovanadate (SOV) to detect the changes of maturation rate, and semi-quantitative RT-PCR and single cell RT-PCR were performed to detect the changes of cyclin B1 mRNA level.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In dose-dependent experiments, the maturation rates of oocytes were significantly different between 5 micromol/L SOV and control groups (P < 0.05), and decreased with SOV increasing doses. However, the elevation of cyclin B1 mRNA level of immatured oocytes cultured for 12 h depended on SOV concentrations ranging from 50 to 500 micromol/L. In incontinuity exposed SOV experiments, the maturation rates of oocytes markedly reduced after the first incubation with 400 micromol/L SOV at least for 1 h and were first cultured in SOV-free medium for 4 h or 8 h before exposure to SOV (P < 0.05). In time-course experiment, the opposite changes of cyclin B1 mRNA level in oocytes between SOV and control groups were observed.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Dynein inhibitor might delay oocytes meiosis process, and cause ectopic expression of cyclin B1 in oocytes. Most Oocytes incubated with SOV blocked at germinal vesicles (GV) stage or M I to anaphase transition due to dynein dysfunction and ectopic transcription level of cyclin B1.</p>
