Acrylamide effects on histone methylation in mouse oocytes.

(A,B) Immunofluorescent staining for H3K9me2 and H3K9me3 in mouse oocytes. H3K9me2 and H3K9me3 levels were significantly lower in the acrylamide-treated group. Mouse number = 6; n = oocyte number, n(H3K9me2) = 25; n(H3K9me3) = 23, error bar = SEM (C,D) Immunofluorescent staining for H3K4me2 and H3K27me3 in mouse oocytes. Fluorescence intensity levels of H3K4me2 and H3K27me3 were significantly reduced in the acrylamide-treated group. Mouse number = 6; n = oocyte number, n(H3K4me2) = 25; n(H3K27me3) = 21, error bar = SEM *p < 0.05. Bar = 20 μm.
