“…Histone deacetylation also contributes to transcriptional silencing and formation of the surrounded nucleolus nuclear state in oocytes (De La Fuente, Viveiros, Burns, et al, 2004; De La Fuente, Viveiros, Wiggleworth, & Eppig, 2004; Lee, Wildt, & Comizzoli, 2015). Inadequate histone deacetylation is associated with increased aneuploidy, aberrant oocyte meiosis (Huang et al, 2012; Ma & Schultz, 2013, 2016), and with reduced oocyte quality accompanying aging (van den Berg et al, 2011). Histone deacetylases also regulate the activities of other proteins, and inhibition of this process can also disrupt spindle formation in mitotic and meiotic cells (Chuang, Pan, Hawke, Lin, & Yu‐Lee, 2013; Gabrielli & Brown, 2012; X. Li et al, 2017; Shin et al, 2003).…”
