The Expression and Localization of ZO-1, Claudin 1, and Claudin 4 in the Pig Epididymis

open access: yesJournal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2019
Tight junctions are constituents of the blood–epididymis barrier that play roles in regulating the unidirectional transcellular transport of ions, water, and solutes to maintain optimal conditions for sperm maturation and storage. Claudin 1 (Cldn1) and 4

Knockout of the polysialyltransferases ST8SiaII and ST8SiaIV leads to a dilatation of rete testis during postnatal development

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Polysialic acid (polySia) is a carbohydrate polymer that modulates several cellular processes, such as migration, proliferation and differentiation processes. In the brain, its essential impact during postnatal development is well known. However, in most

Recent advances in the study of the structure and function of the epididymis

open access: yesExploration of Immunology
Testicular sperm maturation is critical for establishing male fertility. Spermatozoa undergo remodeling of sperm proteins and changes in lipid and ribonucleic acid composition during transport in the epididymal ducts, which play an important role in ...

Immunolocalization of aromatase P450 in the epididymis of Podarcis sicula and Rattus rattus

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Histochemistry, 2020
The goal of this study was to evaluate P450 aromatase localization in the epididymis of two different vertebrates: the lizard Podarcis sicula, a seasonal breeder, and Rattus rattus, a continuous breeder.

Canine and Feline Epididymal Semen—A Plentiful Source of Gametes

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Canine and feline epididymal semen provide an additional source of gametes to preserve the genetics of valuable breeding dogs and tomcats, especially for those that fail to ejaculate, need castration as a therapy or die unexpectedly.

Regulation of epithelial function, differentiation, and remodeling in the epididymis

open access: yesAsian Journal of Andrology, 2016
The epididymis is a single convoluted tubule lined by a pseudostratified epithelium. Specialized epididymal epithelial cells, the so-called principal, basal, narrow, and clear cells, establish a unique luminal environment for the maturation and storage ...

Epididymal Leiomyoadenomatoid Tumour: A Rare Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesJournal of Urological Surgery, 2021
Adenomatoid tumours are benign neoplasms of mesothelial origin that most often occur in the epididymis in men and the uterus or fallopian tubes in women.

Liquid biopsy‐based diagnostic evaluation of hypermethylated CpG sites for ovarian cancer diagnosis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This schematic outlines the workflow from biomarker identification to duplex MethyLight assay validation for epithelial ovarian cancer diagnosis using cfDNA‐based liquid biopsy. Initial screening of hypermethylated CpG candidates (cg02957270, cg10061138 cg00480298, COL2A1) was performed in tissue using ARMS‐PCR, COBRA, qPCR and image analysis. Selected

Insulin 3-like hormone and its role in epididymo-testicular descent

open access: yesInternational Brazilian Journal of Urology, 2007
PURPOSE: The role of insulin 3-like (Insl3) hormone signaling in the testicular descent process has been demonstrated. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate epididymal development in Insl3-deficient mice.
