Associations Between Sperm DNA Fragmentation and Lifestyle Factors

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) has been proposed as a supplementary biomarker to traditional semen parameters in the evaluation of male infertility. However, its determinants and clinical relevance remain unclear, particularly regarding modifiable lifestyle factors.

Spatiotemporal Expression of ARRDC5 in Mammalian Spermatogenesis

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Spermiogenesis is the final phase of sperm development during which haploid round spermatids transform into specialized spermatozoa and occurs across distinct stages of sperm production in the seminiferous epithelium. Abnormalities in this process lead to malformations and an inability of sperm to fertilize eggs.

Male Mice Heterozygous for Protamine 1 and Protamine 2 Are Infertile, Displaying Sperm Damage and Retention of Protamine 2 Precursors, Transition Proteins, and Histones

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background During spermiogenesis, protamines (PRMs) replace histones to hypercondense and protect sperm DNA. Rodents and primates express two PRMs (PRM1 and PRM2). Alterations of species‐specific PRM ratios are associated with sub‐ or infertility in mice and humans.

Biallelic Truncating Variant in LRGUK Is Associated With Severe Multiple Morphological Abnormalities of the Sperm Flagella and Sperm Nuclear Defects in Humans

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
A homozygous truncating variant in LRGUK results in loss of the LRGUK protein and causes multiple morphological abnormalities of the flagella (MMAF), disrupted axonemal architecture, central pair defects, abnormal chromatin organization, and severe male infertility, establishing LRGUK as a novel human infertility gene.

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.
