Sexual selection in a transparent worm : insights from fluorescent sperm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Sexual selection is a potent source of selection underlying the evolution of sexual dimorphism, reproductive strategies and mating systems. Although sexual selection was initially thought to occur exclusively at the pre-copulatory stage (e.g., contests ...

Re-sperm collection with a short abstinence time: a strategy for successful cryopreservation in cryptozoospermia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Men's Health
Background: Recent studies suggest that short-term abstinence may improve semen parameters; however, its impact on cryptozoospermia remains underexplored.

“Seminal testosterone”, rising viewpoint of local spermatogenesis in nonobstructive azoospermia: One center long-term bidirectional cohort study

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
ObjectiveReproductive hormones are a traditional good method to evaluate spermatogenesis but might not accurately represent local spermatogenesis. To find a more accurate method, seminal reproductive hormones were studied.MethodsA bidirectional cohort ...

Cryopreservation of single-sperm from semen and testicular samples: a 5-year monocentric experience in hundreds of patients

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology
For patients with severe oligozoospermia, cryopreservation of single human spermatozoa highlights its advantages. Previous research has focused on the development of micro-drop single sperm freezing methods with non-biological carriers over the past 20 ...

Sperm competition and sperm length in shorebirds [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We investigated how sperm morphology varies across 16 species of shorebirds in the Scolopacidae, Charadriidae, and Jacanidae. Sperm were significantly longer in nonmonogamous than in socially monogamous species.

Purification and preparation of Marchantia polymorpha Auxin Response Factor 2 for phase separation studies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe detailed protocols for the purification and preparation of Marchantia polymorpha Auxin Response Factor 2 (MpARF2). This protein is fused to an MBP solubility tag and an mNG fluorescent tag and is purified from Escherichia coli. The presented procedures make it possible to study MpARF2 assemblies, which could arise from phase separation ...

Comparison of outcomes between pulsatile gonadotropin releasing hormone and combined gonadotropin therapy of spermatogenesis in patients with congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology
Background To evaluate whether there was a difference in outcome between pulsatile gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) therapy and human chorionic gonadotropin/human menopausal gonadotropin (hCG/HMG) therapy for induction of spermatogenesis in post ...

Semen parameters are seriously affected in acephalic spermatozoa syndrome

open access: yesBasic and Clinical Andrology, 2022
Résumé Contexte Des études antérieures ont rapporté que certains patients qui avaient des spermatozoïdes sans tête présentaient une mauvaise qualité du sperme, mais il n’y a eu aucune analyse systématique publiée sur la qualité du sperme chez les ...
