ABSTRACT

20

Most mammalian oocytes are arrested at the germinal vesicle (GV) stage by

22

activation of Wee1B. Meiotic resumption is regulated by inactivation of Wee1B and

23

activation of cell division cycle 25B (cdc25B). The aim of this study was to determine

24

whether treatment with Wee1B-targeting small interfering RNA (Wee1B-siRNA) promotes

25

nuclear maturation of canine oocytes from GV stage to metaphase II (MII) stage. In

26

Experiment 1, the percentage of canine oocytes that matured to MII stage was higher (P

Wee1B depletion promotes nuclear maturation of canine oocytes.
