Multimodal Cross‐Attentive Graph‐Based Framework for Predicting In Vivo Endocrine Disruptors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multimodal cross‐attentive graph neural network integrates molecular graphs with androgen and estrogen adverse outcome pathway (AOP)–anchored in vitro assay signals to predict in vivo endocrine disruption. By fusing information on Tier‐1 AOP logits with chemical structures, the framework achieves high accuracy and provides assay‐traceable ...

Busulfan administration replicated the characteristics of the epididymal initial segment observed in mice lacking testis-epididymis lumicrine signaling

The Journal of Reproduction and Development
The physiological functions of the mammalian epididymis are typically regulated by the testes. In addition to sex steroids secreted by testicular Leydig cells, which act on the epididymis in an endocrine manner, there is a non-sex-steroidal signaling ...

Canine and Feline Epididymal Semen—A Plentiful Source of Gametes

Animals, 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.

Sertoli Cell‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Orchestrate Cadmium‐Induced Testicular Inflammation and Fibrosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Environmental cadmium exposure disrupts testicular homeostasis through a novel intercellular communication axis. Stressed Sertoli cells release extracellular vesicles carrying damage‐associated molecular patterns and mitochondrial fragments, which activate macrophages via TLR4/NF‐κB signaling.

Epididymal Leiomyoadenomatoid Tumour: A Rare Case Report and Literature Review

Journal 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.

Biomarker‐Agnostic Detection of Ovarian Cancer from Blood Plasma Using a Machine Learning‐Driven Electronic Nose

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces a biomarker‐agnostic diagnostic strategy for ovarian cancer, utilizing a machine learning‐enhanced electronic nose to analyze volatile organic compound signatures from blood plasma. By overcoming the dependence on specific biomarkers, this approach enables accurate detection, staging, and cancer type differentiation, offering a ...

The significance of single-cell transcriptome analysis in epididymis research

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
As a crucial component of the male reproductive system, the epididymis plays multiple roles, including sperm storage and secretion of nutritive fluids for sperm development and maturation.

Morphological changes of cauda epididymis, sperm infiltration into cauda epididymis, sperm storage and sperm disappearance of cauda epididymis in Rhinolophus ferrumequinum korai (Chiroptera: Rhinolophidae)

The European Zoological Journal, 2018
In this study to investigate the male reproductive cycle of Rhinolophus ferrumequinum korai, we focused on monthly morphological changes of cauda epididymis, sperm infiltration into cauda epididymis, sperm storage and sperm destruction.

Primary extranodal marginal zone lymphoma - Epididymis

Indian Journal of Urology, 2011
An elderly male presented with painful swelling in the right side of scrotum. He was treated with antibiotics for epididymoorchitis without any response. Ultrasound examination revealed a hypoechoic vascular mass in the tail of the epididymis.

A contribution to the anatomy of two rare cetacean species: The hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The anatomical description of the hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica) remains largely unexplored, due to limited specimen availability and preservation challenges. This study employed digital imaging techniques, conventional histology, and computed tomography to provide visualization of
