Genetically haploid spermatids are phenotypically diploid

open access: yes, 1989
Because chromosomal homologues segregate from one another during meiosis, spermatids are genetically different. Post-meiotic gene expression could lead to gametic differences, some of which might lead to preferential transmission of ...

Are spermatid injections of any clinical value? ROSNI and ROSI revisited. Round spermatid nucleus injection and round spermatid injection [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Reproduction, 1998
Tiny numbers of spermatozoa can be extracted from an extensive testis biopsy and be used successfully for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in ∼60% of cases of non-obstructive azoospermia caused by testicular failure (e.g. maturation arrest, Sertoli cell only, cryptorchid atrophy, post-chemotherapy, or even Klinefelter's syndrome).

FNDC3A is required for adhesion between spermatids and Sertoli cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Symplastic spermatids (sys) male mice are sterile due to a recessive mutation that causes defective adhesion between spermatids and Sertoli cells within the seminiferous epithelium.

A potential role for the clathrin adaptor GGA in Drosophila spermatogenesis

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2011
Background GGAs (Golgi-localised, γ-ear containing, ADP ribosylation factor-binding) are a family of clathrin adaptors that sort a number of biologically important transmembrane proteins into clathrin-coated vesicles.

Expression and localization of alpha-tubulin N-acetyltransferase 1 in the reproductive system of male mice

open access: yesThe Journal of Reproduction and Development, 2020
The structure of microtubules is essential for the fertilizing ability of spermatozoa. Acetylation of α-tubulin plays an important role in flagellar elongation and spermatozoa motility.

A postmeiotically bifurcated roadmap of honeybee spermatogenesis marked by phylogenetically restricted genes.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2023
Haploid males of hymenopteran species produce gametes through an abortive meiosis I followed by meiosis II that can either be symmetric or asymmetric in different species.

“Breaking news” from spermatids [PDF]

open access: yesBasic and Clinical Andrology, 2013
Abstract During the haploid phase of spermatogenesis, spermatids undergo a complex remodeling of the paternal genome involving the finely orchestrated replacement of histones by the highly-basic protamines. The associated striking change in DNA topology is characterized by a transient surge of both single- and double-stranded DNA breaks in ...

White guava (Psidium guajava L.) fruit juice ameliorated the number of spermatogenic cells in rats (Rattus Novergicus) exposed to lead acetate

open access: yesOvozoa: Journal of Animal Reproduction
This study aims to determine the effect of oral administration of white guava fruit juice (Psidium guajava L.) on the spermatogenic cells of rats (Rattus norvegicus) exposed orally to lead acetate.

Structural characterization of procentrioles in Drosophila spermatids

open access: yes, 2015
Male gametogenesis in insects is unusual in that the centrioles do not duplicate during the second meiosis and the differentiating spermatids inherit only one centriole.

Immunohistochemical and hybridocytochemical study on ghrelin signalling in the rat seminiferous epithelium.

open access: yesFolia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2010
The results of presented study demonstrate expression of ghrelin, its functional receptor GHSR-1a and their genes in spermatogenic cells of rat testis suggesting their functioning within seminiferous epithelium.
