S100A4+ macrophages facilitate zika virus invasion and persistence in the seminiferous tubules via interferon-gamma mediation. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2020 Testicular invasion and persistence are features of Zika virus (ZIKV), but their mechanisms are still unknown. Here, we showed that S100A4+ macrophages, a myeloid macrophage subpopulation with susceptibility to ZIKV infection, facilitated ZIKV invasion ...

Comprehensive analysis of long non-coding RNA and mRNA expression patterns during seminiferous tubules maturation in Guanzhong dairy goats [PDF]
BMC GenomicsBackground Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play crucial roles in testicular development and spermatogenesis. The seminiferous tubule, the exclusive site of spermatogenesis, houses all types of male germ cells, regulated by both lncRNAs and mRNAs. However,

#337 : Six Characters of Seminiferous Tubules Appearances During Micro-Tese Related with Different Sperm Retrieval Rate [PDF]
Fertility & Reproduction, 2023 Background and Aims: For non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) patients, micro-TESE is considered to have higher sperm retrieval rate (SRR) than traditional surgery.

Alterations in the ultrasound appearance of seminiferous tubules after gonadotropin treatment in patients with azoospermia because of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism [PDF]
F&S ReportsObjective: To demonstrate the relationship between ultrasound (US) changes in seminiferous tubules during gonadotropin replacement therapy and spermatogenic progression in patients with azoospermia because of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH).

Morphometric studies on rat seminiferous tubules [PDF]
American Journal of Anatomy, 1982 AbstractThe goal of this morphometric study was to obtain quantitative information on the seminiferous tubules of Sprague‐Dawley rats, including changes seen at various stages of the cycle of the seminiferous epithelium. Tissue from perfusion‐fixed testes was embedded in Epon‐Araldite; and sections were subjected to morphometric measurements at the ...

Structure of the Seminiferous Tubules [PDF]
, 2018 The testis is made up of the seminiferous tubules, where the spermatozoa develop, and interstitial cells (Leydig cells), where testosterone is produced. The seminiferous tubules are long U-shaped tubules which form their U-turn at the periphery of the testis as both distal ends drain toward the central superior and posterior regions of the testis into ...
