...The existence of a regulative state of pluripotency throughout early development can be considered an innovation of mammalian evolution (Cañon et al., 2011; O’Farrell, 2015)....

...But during the early cell cycles, chromatin is relatively decompacted, repressive marks are absent, and all sequences replicate at the same time (Shermoen et al. 2010; Li et al. 2014; Yuan et al. 2014)....

...In Drosophila, it is difficult to see by light microscopy without specialized tags, and while obvious by electron microscopy, it is rather transient in comparison to its persistence in autonomously growing oocytes (Cox and Spradling 2003)....

...These features of the early cell cycle are seen in diverse settings—the rapidly dividing teleoblasts of annelid embryos, the syncytial mitotic cycles of Drosophila, the early divisions of sea urchin, and those of Xenopus....

...There are numerous examples of huge cells: the Drosophila salivary gland cells, the cells of Ascaris (a nematode that has a volume a billion-fold bigger than C. elegans but the same cellular anatomy), the giant cells of Aplasia, and ciliates of extraordinary size....

...Forexample, in Drosophila, a precursorcell called acystocyte divides four times to create an interconnected “cyst” of 16 cells that develops into an egg chamber in which 15 of the cells become highly polyploidy, and one cell, which will grow into the oocyte, arrests in meiotic prophase....

...…of autonomous oocyte growth in sampled species of various other animal phyla, including chordates, echinoderms, mollusks, and cnidarians, and a group of more primitive animals, such as jellyfish (Smiley 1990; Eckelbarger and Larson 1992; Eckelbarger and Young 1997; Marlow and Mullins 2008)....

...This interpretation is consistent with findings of autonomous oocyte growth in sampled species of various other animal phyla, including chordates, echinoderms, mollusks, and cnidarians, and a group of more primitive animals, such as jellyfish (Smiley 1990; Eckelbarger and Larson 1992; Eckelbarger and Young 1997; Marlow and Mullins 2008)....

...These pluripotency factors are expressed in normal embryonic cells, and sustain pluripotency as the ICM cells of the blastocyst grow and proliferate before gastrulation (Marandel et al. 2012; Le Bin et al. 2014; Sun et al. 2014)....
