The Interplay Between Trace Elements, Morphometry, and Semen Quality in Bucks During the Breeding Season

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Semen, blood serum and morphometric data were collected from Honamli and Hair bucks. Semen samples were evaluated spermatologically and separated for seminal plasma collection, while blood samples obtained on the first and last collection days were processed for serum and stored at –20°C. ABSTRACT Background Breed‐related differences in spermatological

Mito‐TEMPO Improves Post‐Thaw Quality and Fertilizing Capacity of Rooster Semen Cryopreserved in Beltsville Extender

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study reported the effect of Mito‐TEMPO on rooster semen quality cryopreserved in Beltsville extender. Semen diluted in extenders containing 10 or 100 µM of Mito‐TEMPO presented higher motility, average path velocity as well as membrane/acrosome integrity, mitochondrial activity, and fertility rate; and lower lipid peroxidation, apoptosis rate ...

Testicular SIRT1 Loss Reveals an Aging‐Like Proteomic Landscape and Precipitates Reproductive Deterioration

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 6, Page 1579-1589, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Advanced paternal age is associated with reduced male fertility and testicular dysfunction. Among the molecular regulators involved in aging, SIRT1, a NAD+‐dependent deacetylase, plays a pivotal role in maintaining oxidative balance and cellular homeostasis.

PFOA exposure decreases acrosome reaction and increases DNA oxidative damage by impairing the sperm head shaping in mice

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is a reproductive toxicant, but its effects on sperm head shaping and acrosome reaction remain unknown. Adult male Bal b/c mice were given 0, 2 or 10 mg/kg/day of PFOA for 6 weeks by gavage. Elevated sperm head malformations

Testis‐Enriched F‐Box Protein FBXO39 Is Important for Spermiogenesis and Male Fertility in Mice

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 6, Page 1636-1646, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The SCF (Skp–Cullin–F‐box) complex is a major class of E3 ubiquitin ligases. F‐box proteins constitute the SCF complex and play a critical role in recognizing substrates for ubiquitination. In mice, several F‐box proteins, including FBXO36 and FBXO39, are predominantly expressed in testes.

Induction of Acrosome Reaction by Calcium Ionophore A23187 in Sperm Separated by Two-layer Percoll Gradient Method

open access: yesSiriraj Medical Journal, 2003
The aim of this study was to compare thepercentages of sperm with an acrosome reaction between those with and without calcium ionophore A23187 induction after two-layer Percoll gradient separation.

Improvement of Mouse Spermatozoa Freezing at −80°C With Ascorbic Acid 2‐Glucoside at Thawing Phase

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 6, Page 1647-1655, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Sperm cryopreservation is the most common method to maintain a great number of mutant mouse lines. However, the use of liquid nitrogen (LN2) for freezing presents considerable problems in terms of cost, safety, and accessibility. For this reason, the storage of semen samples at ‐80° in ultra‐freezers has been increasingly used in ...

In Vitro Sperm–Epididymosomes Interaction Immediately Before Fertilization Changes Sperm Fertility Potential

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 6, Page 1757-1770, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Sperm acquire fertility ability during epididymal maturation mainly in the epididymal caput and corpus, and once matured, are stored in the epididymal cauda. During storage, interactions with cauda epididymosomes (epEVs) may influence sperm fertility potential; however, the role of such interactions on sperm fertility remains ...

Fish Sperm Subpopulations Detection, Separation, and Application: Current State and Trends

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
Modern advances in sperm biology highlight the necessity of recognising intra‐ejaculate heterogeneity as a central concept for advancing both the fundamental understanding of fertilisation processes and the development of artificial reproduction techniques in fishes. ABSTRACT Sperm subpopulations represent a fundamental manifestation of intra‐ejaculate

Industrial Hydrocarbons Exposure Deteriorates Sperm Integrity and Reproductive Function

open access: yesJournal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Occupational exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) or metal fumes in the workplace may be detrimental to male fertility. The present study compared sperm concentration, total motility, strict morphology and oxidative stress and SDF levels between 81 men, controls (n = 17) and workers from plastic industry workers (n = 18), steel ...
