Ultrastructure of early spermatocyte development in H. membranacea.
(A) TEM image of a spermatocyte in prophase of meiosis I. The nucleus (N) exhibits condensed chromatin (Chr) with synaptonemal complexes. Other organelles like the Golgi apparatus (G), the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria (M) are positioned in

Are sperm capacitation and apoptosis the opposite ends of a continuum driven by oxidative stress?
This chapter explores the possibility that capacitation and apoptosis are linked processes joined by their common dependence on the continued generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Primary spermatocyte cysts following dicentric chromosome induction.
Phase contrast views of a normal testis and yw/DcY(H1); hsFLP2B/+ testis five days after heat shock. The apical portion of a normal testis (A) is filled with cysts, with primary spermatocyte cysts occupying most of the volume.

Sperm DNA fragmentation, recurrent implantation failure and recurrent miscarriage
Evidence is increasing that the integrity of sperm DNA may also be related to implantation failure and recurrent miscarriage (RM). To investigate this, the sperm DNA fragmentation in partners of 35 women with recurrent implantation failure (RIF ...

Human sperm chromatin epigenetic potential: genomics, proteomics, and male infertility
The classical idea about the function of the mammalian sperm chromatin is that it serves to transmit a highly protected and transcriptionally inactive paternal genome, largely condensed by protamines, to the next generation.

New insights into the regulation of cholesterol efflux from the sperm membrane
Cholesterol is an essential component of the mammalian plasma membrane because it promotes membrane stability without comprising membrane fluidity. Given this important cellular role, cholesterol levels are tightly controlled at multiple levels.

Progression through M I in Cap-D3EY00456/ Df spermatocyte.
Cap-D3EY00456/ Df spermatocytes expressing Cenp-A/Cid-EGFP and His2Av-mRFP were analyzed by time-lapse imaging at 45 sec intervals. Progression through M I, as observed in the spermatocyte presented in Fig 4F, is shown in a maximum intensity projection ...

The spermatocytic seminoma: views on pathogenesis [PDF]
The spermatocytic seminoma has clinical and histological characteristics which differ from those of other germ cell tumours of the testis. Classical seminomas and teratomas are believed to originate from intratubular carcinoma‐in‐situ (CIS), which is almost invariably found adjacent to these neoplasms. In addition, DNA analysis of these tumours and the

PSMA8‐Containing 20S Proteasome Regulates Spermiogenesis and Male Fertility
PSMA8 assembles s20S proteasome that degrades specific substrates in elongating spermatids. Degradation of s20S‐substrates activates translation of FXR1‐target mRNAs, which are essential for mitochondrial sheath formation and sperm morphogenesis.
