ABSTRACT Background Selecting high‐quality spermatozoa with optimal nuclear integrity is a crucial step in assisted reproductive technologies (ART). While density gradient centrifugation (DGC) is widely used, the associated centrifugation steps may induce cell stress, potentially damaging sperm DNA.

ZAN, IZUMO1, and TMEM95 Protein Domains Identify the Physiological Status of the Sperm
ABSTRACT Background Infertility is a growing concern, which has led to an increase in the use of assisted reproductive techniques, involving in vitro sperm capacitation. Nonetheless, the optimal capacitation time remains a matter of debate, and it is unknown whether it has an impact on the localization of key membrane proteins.

ABSTRACT Background A large number of children have been born using testicular sperm from men with Klinefelter syndrome (KS), whereas reports of children conceived using ejaculated sperm are rare. Objective To review all published cases of children conceived using ejaculated sperm from men with KS, assess their health and karyotype, and evaluate ...

ABSTRACT Background Male accessory gland inflammation (MAGI) comprises a heterogeneous group of inflammatory conditions that may differentially affect the seminal microenvironment and sperm function. However, whether transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)‐defined MAGI phenotypes correspond to distinct biological profiles remains insufficiently characterized ...

ABSTRACT Background Direct comparison of robot‐assisted peritoneal flap (PF) to penile inversion (PI) vaginoplasty for gender affirming surgery is absent. Objectives We sought to compare these two techniques to aid patient decision‐making. Materials and Methods A retrospective case–control study of patients who underwent primary PI (N = 40) or PF (N ...

Associations Between Sperm DNA Fragmentation and Lifestyle Factors
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
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.

Regulation of Mammalian Sperm Motility
Archives of Andrology, 1989The physiological regulation of sperm motility has become more amendable to investigation since the demonstration that cAMP and calcium play a role in modulating the functioning of the flagellar axoneme. Although the external triggering mechanisms that initiate motility and capacitation are still unknown, evidence supports a modification of the calcium

Pathophysiology of sperm motility
Frontiers in Bioscience, 2006Mammalian spermatozoa acquire the ability to swim during their transit from the testis to the oviduct under the control of several external and intracellular factors. These factors play also a pivotal role in regulating acquisition of hyperactivated motility and during the process of chemotaxis. This review summarizes the involvement of such factors in
