Abstract The Malabar red snapper (Lutjanus malabaricus) is a high‐value tropical marine species receiving growing attention for aquaculture development in Singapore and Southeast Asia. At present, seed production relies primarily on uncontrolled mass spawning in sea cages, a practice that lacks consistency, biosecurity and control of genetic ...

Developmental regulation of expression of the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) multigene family during mouse spermatogenesis [PDF]
Expression of the Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) genes during various stages of spermatogenesis was studied by using a combination of Northern blot analyses and in situ hybridization techniques.

Non-random chromosome positioning in mammalian sperm nuclei, with migration of the sex chromosomes during late spermatogenesis [PDF]
Chromosomes are highly organized and compartmentalized in cell nuclei. The analysis of their position is a powerful way to monitor genome organization in different cell types and states.

Maternal Chrono‐Nutrition and Placental DNA Methylation: The BiSC Study
This is the first study to examine how the timing of a mother's meals during pregnancy relates to changes in placental DNA methylation, an epigenetic mark. We found that the timing of the last daily meal was most important. Some epigenetic changes were linked to genes involved in placental function and development, and the long‐term health consequences

Intracellular compounds from Lactobacillus plantarum were added to a goat sperm cryopreservation extender. A concentration of 20 µL/mL improved post‐thaw sperm quality, whereas higher concentrations (80–100 µL/mL) had detrimental effects. ABSTRACT Background Cryopreservation of sperm is a key strategy for preserving and transmitting the genetic traits ...

Melav2, an elav-like gene, is essential for spermatid differentiation in the flatworm Macrostomum lignano [PDF]
BackgroundFailure of sperm differentiation is one of the major causes of male sterility. During spermiogenesis, spermatids undergo a complex metamorphosis, including chromatin condensation and cell elongation.

Iron testes: sperm mitochondria as a context for dissecting iron metabolism [PDF]
A recent paper in BMC Developmental Biology reports that a mitochondrial iron importer is required for Drosophila male fertility and normal mitochondrial shaping in spermatids.

Luteinizing hormone receptor knockout mouse: What has it taught us?
Abstract Luteinizing hormone (LH), along with its agonist choriongonadotropin (hCG) in humans, is the key hormone responsible for the tropic regulation of the gonadal function. LH and hCG act through their cognate receptor, the luteinizing hormone/choriongonadotropin receptor (LHCGR; more appropriately LHR in rodents lacking CG), located in the testis ...

Differential expression and sex chromosome association of CHD3/4 and CHD5 during spermatogenesis [PDF]
ATP-dependent nucleosome remodelers of the CHD family play important roles in chromatin regulation during development and differentiation. The ubiquitously expressed CHD3 and CHD4 proteins are essential for stem cell function and serve to orchestrate ...
