HHV-6B binds the sperm acrosome.

open access: yes, 2013
Semen samples were pre-incubated with HHV-6B for one hr followed by incubation with either vehicle or calcium ionophore for 30 min to induce an acrosome reaction (AR).

STUDIES ON THE ACROSOME. II. ACROSOME REACTION IN STARFISH SPERMATOZOA

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1954
1. When the spermatozoa of three starfish species, Asterina pectinifera, Asterias amurensis and Astropecten scoparius, are suspended in a dilute (0.1-1.0%) solution of egg albumin in sea water and mixed with homologous egg-water, three effects can be noted:a. many of the spermatozoa are agglutinated by their heads, forming permanent clusters;b.

Clinical Features and PLCZ1 Gene Variants in Two Cases of Male Infertility: A Case Series and Literature Review

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Our study expands the variant spectrum of PLCZ1, enriches the clinical characteristics of PLCZ1, and provides a solid base for the genetic counseling, diagnosis, and treatment of this condition. ABSTRACT Background Variations in the PLCZ1 gene can lead to male infertility (MIM #617214), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by failure or ...

Annual Variation in Stallion Testicular Measurements and Its Association With Hormonal Profiles and Semen Quality

open access: yesReproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In a stallion breeding‐soundness examination, testicular volume may be estimated either from total scrotal width or by measuring the height, width and length of both testes. This study aimed to determine whether testicular morphometric parameters obtained by ultrasonography fluctuate throughout the year, and whether these variations affect ...

Update of the risk assessment on dioxins and dioxin‐like PCBs in feed and food

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update its 2018 risk assessment on polychlorinated dibenzo‐p‐dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) and dioxin‐like polychlorinated biphenyls (DL‐PCBs) in feed and food, based on the 2022 WHO Toxic Equivalency Factors (WHO2022‐TEFs).

Assembly of spermatid acrosome depends on microtubule organization during mammalian spermiogenesis

open access: yes, 2006
The acrosome is a secretory vesicle attached to the nucleus of the sperm. Our hypothesis is that microtubules participate in the membrane traffic between the Golgi apparatus and acrosome during the first steps of spermatid differentiation.

Quercetin Protects Goat Sperm Motility by Inhibiting Neutrophil Extracellular Traps and Maintaining Plasma Membrane and Acrosome Integrity

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences
Enhancing or protecting sperm motility has always been a pivotal approach to improving the ewe pregnancy rate. Sperm motility is highly susceptible to the immune status of the reproductive tract.

Evaluation of acrosomal status and sperm viability in fresh and cryopreserved specimens by the use of fluorescent peanut agglutinin lectin in conjunction with hypo-osmotic swelling test

open access: yesInternational Brazilian Journal of Urology, 2007
OBJECTIVE: In this study, we evaluated whether the hypo-osmotic swelling test (HOST) can be used as a vital marker in combination with peanut agglutinin (PNA) - labeling in fresh and cryopreserved spermatozoa.
