eLife, 2021 The male germ cells must adopt the correct morphology at each differentiation stage for proper spermatogenesis. The spermatogonia regulates its differentiation state by its own migration. The male germ cells differentiate and mature with the formation of

Unique properties of Drosophila spermatocyte primary cilia
Biology Open, 2013 Summary The primary cilium is an essential organelle required for animal development and adult homeostasis that is found on most animal cells. The primary cilium contains a microtubule-based axoneme cytoskeleton that typically grows from the mother ...

A Caenorhabditis elegans protein with a PRDM9-like SET domain localizes to chromatin-associated foci and promotes spermatocyte gene expression, sperm production and fertility. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2018 To better understand the tissue-specific regulation of chromatin state in cell-fate determination and animal development, we defined the tissue-specific expression of all 36 C.

Prokineticin 2 overexpression induces spermatocyte apoptosis in varicocele in rats
Asian Journal of Andrology, 2019 Varicocele is one of the most important causes of male infertility, as this condition leads to a decline in sperm quality. It is generally believed that the presence of varicocele induces an increase in reactive oxygen species levels, leading to ...

An optimised STAPUT method for the purification of mouse spermatocyte and spermatid populations [PDF]
Molecular human reproduction, 2019 The purification of individual male germ cell populations is integral for molecular and biochemical characterisation of specific spermatogenic phases. Although a number of more contemporary techniques have been developed, velocity sedimentation using the

Development, Growth and Differentiation, 2021 Drosophila spermatocytes grow up to 25 times their original volume before the onset of male meiosis. Several insulin‐like peptides and their cognate receptors (InR) are essential for the cell growth process in Drosophila.

Basic & Clinical Pharmacology & Toxicology, 2020 Methotrexate (MTX) is widely used to treat cancers and systemic autoimmune diseases. However, it is severely toxic to healthy cells, especially those of the reproductive system, and therefore poses a great risk to patient fertility.

Silica nanoparticles induce unfolded protein reaction mediated apoptosis in spermatocyte cells.
Toxicological Research, 2020 With increasing air pollution, silica nanoparticles (SiNPs), as a main inorganic member of PM2.5, have gained increasing attention to its reproductive toxicity.

The Drosophila Citrate Lyase Is Required for Cell Division during Spermatogenesis [PDF]
, 2020 The Drosophila melanogaster DmATPCL gene encodes for the human ATP Citrate Lyase (ACL) ortholog, a metabolic enzyme that from citrate generates glucose-derived Acetyl-CoA, which fuels central biochemical reactions such as the synthesis of fatty acids ...

Effect of FSH on testicular morphology and spermatogenesis in gonadotrophin-deficient hypogonadal mice lacking androgen receptors [PDF]
, 2010 Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and androgen act to stimulate and maintain spermatogenesis. FSH acts directly on the Sertoli cells to stimulate germ cell number and acts indirectly to increase androgen production by the Leydig cells.
