摘要: The cytoskeleton of mammal oocytes provides structural support to the plasma membrane and contributes to critical cellular dynamic processes such as nuclear positioning, germinal vesicle breakdown, spindle orientation, chromosome segregation, polar body extrusion, and transmembrane signaling pathways. The ERM family (ezrin, radixin and moesin) well known as membrane-cytoskeletal crosslinkers play a crucial role in organizing plasma membrane domains through their capacity to interact with transmembrane proteins and the underlying cytoskeleton. Recent works mainly focused on the structural analysis of the ERM family members and their binding partners, together with multiple functions in cell mitosis, have significantly advanced our understanding of the importance of membrane-cytoskeletal interactions. In the present study, we documented that p-ERM was expressed and localized at cortical and nucleus during mouse oocyte meiosis. p-ERM and microfilaments were colocalized from GV to MII during mouse oocyte maturation. After being treated with cytochalasin B (CB), the Factin was disassembled. Meanwhile, p-ERM exhibited a diffuse cytoplasmic distribution and no special staining was detected in either the oocyte membrane or condensed chromosomes. p-ERM depletion by trim-away caused the meiotic procedure arrest with a significantly lower polar body extrusion rate. Collectively, these data demonstrate that the subcellular distribution of p-ERM is correlated with microfilaments. Meanwhile, the p-ERM contributes to the first polar extrusion but does not regulate the microfilament assembly.
