Mitochondria in early mammalian development

Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology
Jonathan Van Blerkom

Abstract

The role of mitochondria as central determinants of development competence of oocytes and preimplantation stage embryos is considered in the context of the diverse activities these organelles have in normal cell function. Stage- and cell-cycle-specific mitochondrial translocations and redistributions are described with respect to mechanisms of cytoplasmic remodeling that may establish domains of autonomous regulation of mitochondrial function and activity during early development. The functions of mitochondria as intracellular signaling elements, as regulators of signaling pathways, and oxygen sensors in differentiated cells are suggested to have similar capacities during mammalian oogenesis and early embryogenesis. Questions concerning the numerical size of the oocyte mitochondrial complement, the energy required to support normal preovulatory oogenesis and preimplantation embryogenesis, and the regulation of mitochondrial activity by extrinsic and intrinsic factors are addressed with respect the potential they may have for new investigational approaches to study the origin of the differential developmental competence of human oocytes and preimplantation stage embryos.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis

Calcium & Bioenergetics

Bioenergetic processes, including cellular respiration and photosynthesis, concern the transformation of energy by cells. Here is the latest research on the role of calcium in bioenergetics.
