초록

"Spontaneous" hardening of the zona pellucida of mouse oocytes during in vitro culture is most likely due to cortical granules exocytosis. Thus the purpose of the present study was to determine whether the exocytosis factor is involved in spontaneous zona pellucida hardening during in vitro culture of the mouse. The results obtained form these experiments were summarized as follows; 1. When a protein synthesis inhibitor(100${\mu}g$/ml puromycin) was added to the culture medium, it did not prevent spontaneous ZPH of mouse oocyte during in vitro culture. 2. Calmodulin antagonists (trifluoperazine and chlorpromazine) and calcium channel blocker (verapamil) had no inhibitory effect in spontaneous ZPH. 3. A microtubule assembly inhibitor, colcemid had some inhibitory effect on spontaneous ZPH. 4. Treatment with a microfillament formation blocker(cytochalasin-B) at 1${\mu}g$/ml concentration, resulted in the excellent inhibitory effect on spontaneous ZPH. However cytochalasin-B did not inhibit ethanol-induced ZPH.
