Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.This study investigated the in vitro effects of green tea extract (GTE) and (+)‐catechin on semen quality parameters of Arabi rams during chilled storage. The results showed that GTE and catechin enhance semen parameters during chilled storage, with optimal effects at specific concentrations.

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.Laparoscopic embryo transfer in Tuj ewes induces less oxidative stress and better preserves thiol–disulphide homeostasis than laparotomy. These findings indicate that minimally invasive approaches better maintain redox balance and antioxidant defence during embryo transfer procedures.

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.Cross‐sectional survey and retrospective data on the oestrus synchronization were collected and analysed. The predominant mating system practiced by dairy farmers was AI (55.6%), and 73.5% of farmers apply controlled mating. The highest response rate and pregnancy rate were 89.5% and 45.2%, respectively, whereas a birth rate of 9.6%–18.5% was obtained.

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1249-1260, July 2026.ABSTRACT Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs) produced by accessory sex glands play a key role in sperm functionality, influencing motility, viability, acrosome integrity, metabolic activity, and capacitation. Most studies on the effects of EVs on spermatozoa have focused on ejaculated spermatozoa, which have already been exposed to their own native

Sperm Sexing in Selected Animals and Humans: Methods, Applications, and Future Prospects
Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1089-1101, July 2026.ABSTRACT Background Sperm sexing is a technique that enables the selection of offspring sex by sorting spermatozoa based on their sex chromosomes. This technology has gained increasing attention due to its potential applications in both animal breeding and human‐assisted reproduction.
