Maturation of starfish oocytes is induced by 1-methyladenine produced in follicle cells under the influence of a gonad-stimulating hormonal peptide released from the nervous system. Concanavalin A stimulates isolated follicle cells to produce 1-methyladenine, which suggests that it has the same capacity as the peptide hormone to indirectly induce oocyte maturation.
海星卵母细胞的成熟是由在神经系统释放的促性腺激素肽的影响下,卵泡细胞产生的1-甲基腺嘌呤所诱导的。伴刀豆球蛋白A刺激分离的卵泡细胞产生1-甲基腺嘌呤,这表明它具有与肽激素相同的间接诱导卵母细胞成熟的能力。
