KLC3 is involved in sperm tail midpiece formation and sperm function
Developmental Biology, 2012 Kinesin light chain 3 (KLC3) is the only known kinesin light chain expressed in post-meiotic male germ cells. We have reported that in rat spermatids KLC3 associates with outer dense fibers and mitochondrial sheath. KLC3 is able to bind to mitochondria in vitro and in vivo employing the conserved tetratrico-peptide repeat kinesin light chain motif. The

Male scorpionflies assess the amount of rival sperm transferred by females' previous mates [PDF]
, 2007 Engqvist L. Male scorpionflies assess the amount of rival sperm transferred by females' previous mates. Evolution. 2007;61(6):1489-1494.Theory predicts that when sperm compete numerically, selection will favor males who vary the number of sperm they ...

International Journal of Occupational Medicine and Environmental Health, 2018 Some of the recent publications have reported a decline in semen quality in the last few decades. This phenomenon is associated with environmental factors, particularly with exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs).

Health Science Reports, 2021 Background and aims Motility and morphological defects of spermatozoa can cause male infertility. Sperm RNAs are related to sperm quality. They are considered to have clinical values as a biomarker for assessing sperm quality and fertility potential. The

Formation of Detached Tail and Coiled Tail of Sperm in a Beagle Dog
Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2005 The right testis and epididymis were excised from a Beagle dog that ejaculated high percentages of sperm with detached tails and with coiled tails. Cross sections of the organs were stamped on glass slides and histological examination of the organs was performed to find the portion where sperm with the abnormal tails appear. Many sperm with tails whose

Morphometry of Boar Spermatozoa in Semen Stored at 17 °C—The Influence of the Staining Technique
Animals, 2022 The aim of the study was to assess the morphometry of sperm during storage of liquid boar semen at 17 °C. An attempt was also made to evaluate the suitability of three staining methods for assessment of boar sperm morphometry.

Sperm competition and sperm length in shorebirds [PDF]
, 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.
