## Abstract The ovarian hormone 1‐methyladenine (1‐MA) stimulates fully grown starfish oocytes to undergo germinal vesicle breakdown (GVB). __Patiria miniata__ oocytes treated with 10^−6^ M 1‐MA underwent GVB by 45 minutes of treatment. However, in the absence of extracellular Ca^++^ GVB was delaye
## Abstract Fully grown oocytes of starfish __(Asterias forbesi)__ are normally arrested in the dictyate stage of meiosis within the ovary. Reinitiation of meiotic maturation in these oocytes appears to be induced as a result of the interaction of 1‐methyladenine (1‐MA) with the oocyte surface. The
