Swapping mitochondrial DNA in mammalian oocytes

Technique has the potential to prevent transmission of human mutated mitochondrial DNA from mother to baby. (figure reference[1])

Working with rhesus macaque monkeys, Tachibana et al.[2]:

  • a - removed the nuclear material plus a cellular membrane (a karyoplast) from a mature oocyte, leaving behind its mitochondria. The nuclear material in the karyoplast consists of condensed chromosomes attached to thread-like spindle fibres (the spindle–chromosomal complex).
  • b - transferred the karyoplast to an oocyte whose nucleus had been removed (a cytoplast).
  • c - fused the karyoplast with the cytoplast and then fertilized the reconstructed oocyte.
  • d - developing blastocyst was implanted in a surrogate mother.
  • e - mother gave birth to a healthy baby.
