Summary

This document presents lecture notes on gametogenesis and puberty from Ross University, focusing on the processes of oogenesis and spermatogenesis, including mitosis and meiosis. It details the stages and mechanisms involved, and mentions the role of hormones, including AMH and testosterone, in these processes.

Absence of Enter prophase of first meiotic division (primary oocytes) – ✔Testis determining factor most mammals are born ✔AMH ✔Testosterone Physiology MM II Oocyte developmental events Most mammals are born with oogenesis at the beginning of Meiosis I – Primary oocyte Oocytes get arrested until puberty in prophase I (2N & 4C) Physiology MM II Meiosis Prophase Homologous recombination (“Chromosomal crossover”) Not at random points: chiasma (chiasmata) Multiple crossovers occur per homologue pair Introduces variation into sexual reproduction Many genetically different daughter cells are possible. Homologous pairs line up in random orientation For each chromosome, it is random as to whether the maternally or paternally derived chromosome goes to each daughter cell For human, with 23 chromosome pairs, this allows over 8 million variations Add in recombination (“crossover”) and you have a virtually infinite number of genetically distinct gametes Physiology MM II Postnatal oocyte development Primary oocyte (Meiosis I) Duplicates the DNA (Interphase) - Chromosomal complement is 2N & 4C Crossing over (Prophase) Meiosis resumed at the ovulatory surge of LH (Puberty) Meiosis I results in a Secondary oocyte (n & 2C) and a polar body (will degenerate) Polar body Physiology MM II Oocytes Polar body Formed after meiotic divisions Important for reducing the genetic material Embryo development requires the oocyte cytoplasm Polar bodies degenerate Meiosis I – First Polar body Physiology MM II Postnatal oocyte development Secondary oocyte (Meiosis II) The secondary oocyte is the cell that is formed by meiosis I in oogenesis. Thus, it has only one of each pair of homologous chromosomes (after crossing over). However, each chromosome still has two chromatids, making a total of 46 chromatids (2C). The secondary oocyte continues the second stage of meiosis (meiosis II), however, gets arrested at metaphase II; until they meet the sperm in the fallopian tube. n 2C Ovulation occurs during the second Meiotic division Meiosis II is completed at the time of fertilization. Results in an Ovum (n) and a polar body (will degenerate) Physiology MM II Ovulation Release of the oocyte from the follicle Oocyte and cumulus mass moved into infundibulum of uterine tube by fimbria Meiosis continues to second meiotic metaphase (blocked there unless fertilized) Fertilization occurs in ampulla of uterine tube Short window for fertilization (6-12 h) Male fetal life Physiology MM II - Reproduction ✔Testis determining factor Testis development (Sertoli cells) ✔AMH Development of the Leydig cells – Testosterone – Male duct system Fetal life Theriogenology MM Spermatogonium development in fetal life Primary germ cells originate near the yolk sac and migrate to the developing ovary (genital ridge) Differentiate to spermatogonium and multiply by mitosis ✔Testis determining factor Diploid cells (2N). ✔AMH Male mammals are born with spermatogonium that can undergo multiple mitosis ✔Testosterone Spermatogenesis Physiology MM II AMHdungfetal AMH to adult producingin Sertoli cells - a "nurse" cell of the life testicles that is part of a seminiferous seminiferous tubules tubule and helps in the process of Inside the spermatogenesis – produces inhibin and estradiol; Phagocytose residual cytoplasm Spermatogonium - undifferentiated male germ cel (2n) Blood testis barrier (Lamina propria) seminiferous tubules - Prevents autoimmune response to Outside the sperm Leydig cells - primary source of testosterone or androgens in males.
