REPRODUCTION
• What type of cell division takes place?
• MEIOSIS + MITOSIS

OOGENESIS
• Production and maturing of ovum. • The differentiation of the ovum • “CREATION OF HAPLOID EGG CELLS USING
MEIOSIS”

7TH WEEK REMAINING PRIMARY OOCYTES HAVE ENTERED PROPHASE OF MEIOSIS I – DIPLOTENE STAGE (RESTING PHASE)
• Oogonia divide rapidly from the second to the seventh month of gestation to form roughly 7 million germ cells. After the seventh month number of germ cells drops precipitously.
AT BIRTH 2 MILLION PRIMARY OOCYTES BEGINNING OF PUBERTY 400,000 TILL 50 YEARS (MENOPAUSE) 500 ONLY OVULATED

BIOCHEMICAL CHANGES DURING OOGENESIS
• NUCLEUS• CYTOPLASM• RNA• YOLK – PROTEINS• HORMONES- GONADOTROPIN HORMONES ,
OVARIAN HORMONES
12
BIOCHEMICAL CHANGES
• Gametes formed by oogenesis contains all the materials needed to initiate and maintain metabolism and development.1. Form haploid nucleus,2. All the organelles involved in fertilization have to be constructed,3. All the mRNAs & proteins have to positioned properly in the
oocyte,4. All the membrane proteins involved in coordinating the
interactions with sperm have to be synthesized and in place,5. The accumulated material in the oocyte cytoplasm includes energy
sources and energy –producing organelles(yolk & mitochondria)6. The enzymes and precursors for DNA, RNA and protein synthesis,7. Stored messenger RNAs,8. Structural proteins,9. Morphogenetic regulatory factors that control early embryogenesis

• Oogenesis vary among species to species.• E.g. Sea urchin & Frogs - routinely produces
hundreds or thousands of eggs at a time.• Humans and most mammals - only a few eggs are
produced during the lifetime of an individual.Most of the biochemical changes takes place in the growth
phase
15
1) MULTIPLICATION PHASE
MITOSIS MITOSIS• PGCs OOGONIA 1⁰ OOCYTE
• No conspicious changes have been traced upto the formation of primary oocyte.
16
2)GROWTH PHASE
1. Oocyte increases in size
• Nutrients & other materials synthesized, then these substances accumulate in the cytoplasm.Young oocyte of frog - 50µ in diameterMature oocyte of frog- 20-40 times larger.Hen’s oocyte- 200 times larger.Mouse oocyte- 43 times larger.
17
2. Period of growth: Frog 3 years oogenesis – first 2 years size increase
gradually then 3rd year accumulation of yolk increases its size.
Human – 12 or 13 years
3. Stages of growth phase:i. Previtellogenesis (cytoplasmic & nuclear
materials grow- no yolk synthesis)ii. Vitellogenesis (synthesis of yolk )

19
CHANGES DURING PREVITELLOGENESIS
• Nuclear sap produced in a large amount – nucleus increases its size = Germinal vesicle.
20
• Homologous chromosomes pair together.• Active mRNA synthesis – GENE TRANSCRIPTION IN AMPHIBIAN OOCYTES:• During the diplotene stage, certain
chromosomes stretch out large loops of DNA, causing the chromosome to resemble a lamp brush. These lamp brush chromosomes can be revealed as the sites of RNA synthesis by in situ hybridization.
21
• Oocyte chromosomes can be incubated with a radioactive RNA probe, and autoradiography used to visualize the precise location where the gene is being transcribed.
Figure shows diplotene chromosome I of the newt Triturus cristatus after incubation with radioactive histone mRNA.It is obvious that a histone gene (or set of histone genes) is located on one of these loops of the Lampbrush chromosome (Old et al. 1977).
22
23
VITELLOGENESIS
• Liver produce inactive/precursor vitellogenin• Transported through blood to ovary enzymes protein kinase
convert it into active vitellogenin- mitochondria
24
• The growing diplotene oocyte is actively transcribing the genes for zona pellucida proteins ZP1, ZP2, and ZP3.
25
MATURATION PHASE
• The diploid primary oocyte reduced into haploid & form ovum.
• 1st meiotic division – 1 polar body having small amount of cytoplasm
- larger cytoplasm having cell is known as secondary oocyte.2nd meiotic division – produce 3 polar bodies and a single ovum
26
• The time of maturation varies in different species.
• It may occur after / before fertilization or at the time of fertilization.
• Sea urchin – before• Vertebrates – after• Acidian – at time of fertilization

HORMONAL CHANGES DURING OOGENESIS

33
FSH promotes the growth & development of oocyteLH triggers ovulation FSH, LH promote meiotic maturation division of oocyte
and stimulate follicle cells to synthesis vitellogenin.
34
• During the process of oogenesis, oocytes of many animal species undergo meiotic arrest prior to the completion of chromosomal reduction and it is in this state that they undergo tremendous growth. The length of time that oocytes remain in this arrested state and the nature of the stimulus which reinitiates meiosis are species dependent

36
SIGNIFICANCE OF OOGENESIS
• WITHOUT OOGENESIS THERE IS NO FERTILIZATION, REPRODUCTION, LIFE…..
