ASTRA-ZENECA ENDOWED LECTURE
The Spindle Assembly Checkpoint: Preventing Aneuploidy During Mitosis and Meiosis
Conly Rieder, Ph.D.
Introduced by: David L. Keefe, M.D.
Needs Assessment and Description:
How chromosomes attach to and move on the mitotic/meiotic spindle, as well as the control mechanisms that delay anaphase onset under conditions that will produce aneuploidy cells, will be presented. The non-disjunction of a single chromosome during meiosis or early development leads to birth defect syndromes characterized by an extra chromosome. It is now evident that non-disjunction can often be traced to mistakes made during spindle assembly that the cell cannot correct. The goal of this talk is to explain how these mistakes arise, and why they are not corrected in a timely manner.
Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of the presentation, attendees should be able to:
-
Describe the various routes by which aneuploid cells are produced during mitosis and meiosis.
-
Diagram the checkpoint control pathway that works during division to minimize the production of aneuploid cells.
-
Explain where non-disjunction events can occur during gamete production.

Novel Local Factors Regulating the Ovulatory, Luteinizing Follicle During the Menstrual Cycle
Richard L. Stouffer, Ph.D.
Introduced by: Hugh S. Taylor, M.D.
Needs Assessment and Description:
The role of angiogenic factors and other newly-discovered local factors (corticotropin- releasing hormone/urocortin) in maturation and/or ovulation of the dominant follicle, or its conversion into the functional corpus luteum, will be reviewed. There is a need to inform attendees of recent discoveries regarding the complex events resulting in ovulation and luteal development in primates, and their potential role in ovarian dysfunction and fertility treatment.
Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of the presentation, attendees should be able to:
-
Evaluate the evidence supporting important roles for angiogenic (e.g., vascular endothelial growth factor A) and angiolytic (e.g., angiopoietin-2) factors in the health, rupture and luteinization of the dominant follicle, plus their potential actions in ovarian dysfunction.
-
Consider how genomics approaches rapidly contribute to our understanding of ovarian processes, and provide one example (i.e., the corticotropin-releasing hormone/ urocortin-receptor system) of such contribution.
