Orientation of mitotic spindles during the 8- to 16-cell stage transition in mouse embryos.
BACKGROUND:Asymmetric cell divisions are involved in the divergence of the first two lineages of the pre-implantation mouse embryo. They first take place after cell polarization (during compaction) at the 8-cell stage. It is thought that, in contrast to many species, spindle orientation is random, a...
