    Abstract Presents an obituary for James (Jim) Georgoulakis (1948-2017). Georgoulakis was a psychologist, soldier, and scholar. An international consultant, leader, and well-respected advocate, he fought behind the scenes for decades, particularly on issues related to psychology and Medicare. He held several leadership positions with the U.S. Army, including director of the largest outpatient mental health program in the Department of Defense and Director of ambulatory care research for six military facilities. Jim's most substantial contribution to the profession of psychology was representing the American Psychological Association (APA) on the AMA's Relative Update Committee (RUC) for 20 years. Among his many awards, Jim was inducted into the MBA National Business Honor Society and named a distinguished scholar in law school. In 2005, he was honored with an APA Presidential Citation for contributions to psychology. He was laid to rest with full military honors at Fort Sam Houston. (PsycINFO Database Record

    Abstract Egg activation in mammals is triggered by oscillations in egg intracellular calcium (Ca2+) level. Ca2+ oscillation patterns can be modified in vitro by changing the ionic composition of culture media or in vivo by conditions affecting mitochondrial function, such as obesity and inflammation. In mice, disruption of Ca2+ oscillations in vitro impacts embryo development and offspring growth. Here we tested the hypothesis that, even without in vitro manipulation, abnormal Ca2+ signaling following fertilization impacts offspring growth. Plasma membrane Ca2+ ATPases (PMCA) extrude cytosolic Ca2+ to restore Ca2+ homeostasis. To disrupt Ca2+ signaling in vivo, we conditionally deleted PMCA1 (cKO) in oocytes. As anticipated, in vitro fertilized cKO eggs had increased Ca2+ exposure relative to controls. To assess the impact on offspring growth, cKO females were mated to wild type males to generate pups that had high Ca2+ exposure at fertilization. Because these offspring would be heterozygous, we also tested the impact of global PMCA1 heterozygosity on offspring growth. Control heterozygous pups that had normal Ca2+ at fertilization were generated by mating wild type females to heterozygous males; these control offspring weighed significantly less than their wild type siblings. However, heterozygous offspring from cKO eggs (and high Ca2+ exposure) were larger than heterozygous controls at 12 week-of-age and males had altered body composition. Our results show that global PMCA1 haploinsufficiency impacts growth and support that abnormal Ca2+ signaling after fertilization in vivo has a long-term impact on offspring weight. These findings are relevant for environmental and medical conditions affecting Ca2+ handling and for design of culture conditions and procedures for domestic animal and human assisted reproduction.

  5. Article: Superovulation Does Not Alter Calcium Oscillations Following Fertilization.

    Abstract Superovulation is a common approach to maximize the number of eggs available for either clinical assisted reproductive technologies or experimental animal studies. This procedure provides supraphysiological amounts of gonadotropins to promote continued growth and maturation of ovarian follicles that otherwise would undergo atresia. There is evidence in mice, cows, sheep, and humans that superovulation has a detrimental impact on the quality of the resulting ovulated eggs or embryos. Here we tested the hypothesis that eggs derived from superovulation have a reduced capacity to support calcium oscillations, which are a critical factor in the success of embryo development. Eggs were obtained from mice that were either naturally cycling or underwent a standard superovulation protocol. The eggs were either parthenogenetically activated using strontium or fertilized

    Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) is a suitable method for sequence-specific post-transcriptional gene silencing in a number of model systems. The following protocol describes delivery of a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) of choice into fully-grown, germinal vesicle-intact (GV) mouse oocytes by microinjection. Microinjected oocytes can be cultured for up to 2 d or they can be matured to metaphase II. The metaphase II eggs can be fertilized in vitro and cultured up to the blastocyst stage. The efficiency of knockdown by RNAi can be assayed by quantitative reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR (qPCR).

    Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) is a suitable method for sequence-specific post-transcriptional gene silencing in a number of model systems. The following protocol describes delivery of a mammalian double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) expression vector into meiotically incompetent mouse oocytes by microinjection. During mouse oocyte growth, there is a progressive decline in transcriptional activity, such that the fully-grown oocyte is transcriptionally quiescent. For this reason, the microinjection of plasmids should be performed in growing oocytes, obtained from 12- to 13-d-old females. Microinjected oocytes can be cultured for up to 2 d. The efficiency of knockdown by RNAi can be assayed by quantitative reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR (qPCR).
