Abstract
Meiosis produces haploid gametes for sexual reproduction. Triphenyltin chloride (TPTCL) is a highly bioaccumulated and toxic environmental oestrogen; however, its effect on oocyte meiosis remains unknown. We examined the effect of TPTCL on mouse oocyte meiotic maturation in vitro and in vivo. In vitro, TPTCL inhibited germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) and first polar body extrusion (PBE) in a dose-dependent manner. The spindle microtubules completely disassembled and the chromosomes condensed after oocytes were exposed to 5 or 10 μg mL–1 TPTCL. γ-Tubulin protein was abnormally localised near chromosomes rather than on the spindle poles. In vivo, mice received TPTCL by oral gavage for 10 days. The general condition of the mice deteriorated and the ovary coefficient was reduced (P < 0.05). The number of secondary and mature ovarian follicles was significantly reduced by 10 mg kg–1 TPTCL (P < 0.05). GVBD decreased in a non-significant, dose-dependent manner (P > 0.05). PBE was inhibited with 10 mg kg–1 TPTCL (P < 0.05). The spindles of in vitro and in vivo metaphase II oocytes were disassembled with 10 mg kg–1 TPTCL. These results suggest that TPTCL seriously affects meiotic maturation by disturbing cell-cycle progression, disturbing the microtubule cytoskeleton and inhibiting follicle development in mouse oocytes.
