• I'm talking about genes, DNA, genetic recombination and all that we know about meiosis and mitosis, spermatogenesis and oogenesis, genomics and epigenetics, mitochondrial DNA, ribosomes, mRNA, proteins and the like, none of which I'm particularly knowledgeable about - but surely even what I know about it all would make Darwin's head explode.

  • Canto: Right, but let's not get bogged down in the history of reproductive biology and the birth of genetics here, as it's hard enough for me to comprehend meiosis and mitosis, gametes and zygotes and all the rest, as we understand it all today. (ussromantics.com)
  • Primary spermatocytes are diploid (2N) cells. (iiab.me)
  • Mitosis produces 2 diploid somatic cells that are genetically identical to each other and the original parent cells. (kegrat.online)
  • These cells are reserve spermatogonial stem cells which do not usually undergo active mitosis. (wikipedia.org)
  • These are the spermatogonial stem cells that undergo active mitosis. (wikipedia.org)
  • Although spermatocytes that divide mitotically and meiotically are sensitive to radiation and cancer , spermatogonial stem cells are not. (iiab.me)
  • Each Gb initiates precisely four rounds of transit-amplifying (TA) divisions to make a cyst with 16 interconnecting germ cellular material, which leave the mitotic system in synchrony and invest in spermatocyte differentiation. (ufe-eg.org)
  • An aurora kinase that localizes to the CENTROSOME during MITOSIS and is involved in centrosome regulation and formation of the MITOTIC SPINDLE. (lookformedical.com)
  • The formation of primary spermatocytes (a process known as spermatocytogenesis) begins in humans when a male is sexually matured at puberty , around the age of 10 through 14. (iiab.me)
  • HeLa cells were accumulated in monopolar mitosis using a 12 hr treatment of the kinesin-5 inhibitor S-trityl-l-cysteine and forced into cytokinesis by adding the potent Cdk1 inhibitor purvalanol A for. (cellimagelibrary.org)
  • Wignall found that dynein was crucial in exerting this counterbalancing inward force and limiting spindle sizes, a finding that was consistent with that in mitosis. (jhunewsletter.com)
  • Spermatocytes are a type of male gametocyte in animals. (iiab.me)
  • All male animals produce spermatocytes, even hermaphrodites such as C. elegans , which exist as a male or hermaphrodite. (iiab.me)
  • Paternal sperm DNA damage has negative effects on the integrity of early embryonic development as the percentage of good quality embryos as well as implantation rates was significantly reduced in patients exhibiting high DNA damage [ 27 ] and it appears that the second and third mitoses are the sensitive periods [ 28 ].
