Going beyond conventional parameters to unveil sperm quality in fish: the use of fibre optic technology to assess mitochondrial respiratory performance

open access: yesBiology Open, 2020
Sperm fertilisation success depends on both intrinsic quality and the interactions with the surrounding reproductive fluids. In several fish species, these interactions have a variable effect on sperm performance.

EBV induced loss of sperm quality

open access: yesTürk Üroloji Dergisi/Turkish Journal of Urology, 2021
To analyze the presence of Epstein-Barr-virus (EBV) in sperm samples from patients diagnosed with some impairment of the fertility parameters evaluated using seminogram and to observe if there is any difference with the normozoospermic samples. We hypothesize that an EBV infection is responsible for the upregulation of the miRNA 199-3p, which binds to ...

Association between ambient temperature and semen quality: A longitudinal study of 10 802 men in China

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2020
Semen quality is a vital determinant for male fertility. The process of spermatogenesis is highly sensitive to fluctuations in temperature. However, the impact of ambient temperature on semen quality remains unclear. We aimed to quantitatively assess the

Factors affecting sperm quality before and after mating of calopterygid damselflies. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Damselflies (Odonata: Zygoptera) have a more complex sperm transfer system than other internally ejaculating insects. Males translocate sperm from the internal reproductive organs to the specific sperm vesicles, a small cavity on the body surface, and ...
