Fig. 5. Passage through first mitosis does not restore abnormalities in lamin A/C
labeling and intranuclear anchoring of AKAP95 in NT embryos. (A) Two-cell
stage ICSI and NT embryos were analysed by immunofluorescence using
anti-lamin-A/C mAbs. (B) Two-cell-stage ICSI and NT embryos were extracted
0.1% Triton X-100, 1 mg ml-1 DNAse I, 100 µg m-1
RNase A, 300 mM NaCl prior to immunofluorescence analysis using anti-AKAP95
antibodies. DNA was labeled with propidium iodide. Scale bars, 20 µm. (C)
Relative DNA and AKAP95 immunolabeling intensities in intact (100%) and
extracted two-cell-stage ICSI and NT embryos. n>10 embryos per
treatment.
