Mouse Oocyte Cortical Granules

The cortical granules were absent in the cortex close to where the chromosomes were located during the MI and MII stages in the control group. Note MI and MII images are of different oocytes.

  • Z-stack showed the presence of different scanned layers.
  • An arrowhead shows the cortical granule-free domain.
  • Green - cortical granules.
  • Blue - chromatin.
  • Bar = 20 µm.
