Characterization of Lipizzan Horse Population From Lipica Stud Using Molecular and Pedigree Data

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT In this study, we analysed genetic diversity, population structure and inbreeding in the Lipica Stud Farm population by integrating pedigree records, microsatellite (STR) and genome‐wide SNP data generated using the GGP Equine 70K BeadChip. The dataset comprised 233 horses from the Lipica Stud Farm, which served as the reference population for

Cryptorchidism: Novel genetic insights into CCDC149 mutations

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1155-1163, July 2026.
Abstract Background Cryptorchidism, characterized by the failure of one or both testes to descend into the scrotum, is a common congenital condition that can lead to infertility and increased risk of testicular cancer. CCDC149, a coiled‐coil domain‐containing protein, has been implicated in various developmental processes, but its role in the male ...

Cilia in Nervous System Development, Function, and Disease

MedComm – Future Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Cilia are evolutionarily conserved organelles that function as essential sensory and motility platforms in the nervous system. This review outlines key cilia‐dependent signaling pathways and their roles in neural development and function. Furthermore, it highlights how ciliary dysfunction can lead to a variety of neurological disorders, known as ...

A century of theories of balancing selection

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 804-825, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Traits that affect organismal fitness are often highly genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature – after all – ‘selects’ the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short.

Comparative Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Atlas Reveals the Genetic Regulation of Reproductive Traits

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 17, 23 March 2026.
A cross‐species single‐cell transcriptomic atlas of reproductive and central nervous system tissues from sheep and humans reveals conserved cellular programs and regulatory networks that regulated fertility. Integration with GWAS for sheep lifetime average litter size identifies UNC5–SLIT–BMP signaling as a core pathway coordinating neuroendocrine ...

Modified cytoskeletal and extracellular matrix composition in the canine testis after long‐acting gonadotropin‐releasing hormone agonist deslorelin treatment

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 718-735, March 2026.
Abstract Background Long‐acting gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists are commonly used for fertility control in male dogs. Their effect on testicular histomorphology has not been clarified. Objectives To elucidate the mechanisms underlying androgen withdrawal in response to long‐acting GnRH agonist deslorelin 4.7 mg treatment on testicular ...

A vast stem‐progenitor cell pool, richly vascular system, and hybrid ossification drive the daily centimeter‐scale elongation of bony antlers

iMeta, Volume 4, Issue 6, December 2025.
Bone growth and regeneration remain major clinical challenges. Deer antlers, the fastest‐growing mammalian bone, regenerate via endochondral ossification and elongate up to 2 cm per day, far surpassing the ~2 cm annual growth of human growth plates. Here, we systematically mapped the cellular landscape of the antler growth center (AGC) using single ...

The role of RXFP2 in mediating androgen-induced inguinoscrotal testis descent in LH receptor knockout mice [PDF]

Reproduction, 2010
Abstract LH receptor knockout (LhrKO) male mice exhibit a bilateral cryptorchidism resulting from a developmental defect in the gubernaculum during the inguinoscrotal phase of testis descent, which is corrected by testosterone replacement therapy (TRT).
