Teacher:Given a passage classify if the passage has a definite objective/aim/goal or not. Output '1' if the passage has a defininte objective/aim/goal and output '0' if the passage does not have a definite objective/aim/goal.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: To ascertain whether different hormonal treatment protocols could affect metaphase II (MII) spindle morphology, meiotic spindle organization was detected in prepubertal mouse oocytes matured under conditions allowing spontaneous, FSH- or epidermal growth factor (EGF)-dependent meiotic maturation.', 'Oocyte-cumulus complexes (OCCs) were matured either spontaneously (control; n=270) or in the presence of hypoxanthine (Hx) plus FSH (n=400) or EGF (n=370). Spindles were detected by immunofluorescence analysis. In vivo ovulated (IVO) oocytes were processed similarly.', 'IVO oocytes displayed spindles underlying the oolemma and with focused poles marked by spots of gamma-tubulin, whereas the majority (89%) of control oocytes had barrel-shaped spindles, positioned away from the oolemma, and with gamma-tubulin distributed along microtubules. Similar configuration/localization was found in 85% of the oocytes matured in vitro in the presence of Hx and FSH. In the presence of Hx-EGF, 35% of the oocytes showed spindles with an IVO-like configuration, although gamma-tubulin was homogeneously distributed throughout microtubules. Independently of spindle shape, 52% of EGF-stimulated oocytes had spindles positioned near the oolemma, in comparison to just 24% of FSH-treated and 13% of control oocytes.
