An orchestrated intron retention program in meiosis controls timely usage of transcripts during germ cell differentiation [PDF]
Global transcriptome reprogramming during sper-matogenesis ensures timely expression of factors in each phase of male germ cell differentiation. Sper-matocytes and spermatids require particularly exten-sive reprogramming of gene expression to switch from

In this experimental prospective study, we aimed to analyze the effect of transient scrotal hyperthermia on the male reproductive organs, from the perspective of sperm parameters, semen plasma biochemical markers, and oxidative stress, to evaluate ...

Sequential Loading of Cohesin Subunits during the First Meiotic Prophase of Grasshoppers [PDF]
A previous version of this article appeared as an Early Online Release on January 2, 2007 (doi:10.1371/journal.pgen.0030028.eor).The cohesin complexes play a key role in chromosome segregation during both mitosis and meiosis.

The paternal genome and the health of the assisted reproductive technology child
As a number of children born by assisted reproductive technology (ART) are increasing each year across the developed world, the health of such offspring is a matter of public concern.

Errors in chromosome segregation during oogenesis and early embryogenesis [PDF]
Errors in chromosome segregation occurring during human oogenesis and early embryogenesis are very common. Meiotic chromosome development during oogenesis is subdivided into three distinct phases.

Redox regulation of mammalian sperm capacitation
Capacitation is a series of morphological and metabolic changes necessary for the spermatozoon to achieve fertilizing ability. One of the earlier happenings during mammalian sperm capacitation is the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that will ...

Meiotic silencing and fragmentation of the male germline restricted chromosome in zebra finch [PDF]
During male meiotic prophase in mammals, X and Y are in a largely unsynapsed configuration, which is thought to trigger meiotic sex chromosome inactivation (MSCI). In avian species, females are ZW, and males ZZ.

Behavioral mechanisms of mammalian sperm guidance
In mammals, sperm guidance in the oviduct appears essential for successful sperm arrival at the oocyte. Hitherto, three different potential sperm guidance mechanisms have been recognized: thermotaxis, rheotaxis, and chemotaxis, each of them using ...

A surge of late-occurring meiotic double-strand breaks rescues synapsis abnormalities in spermatocytes of mice with hypomorphic expression of SPO11 [PDF]
Meiosis is the biological process that, after a cycle of DNA replication, halves the cellular chromosome complement, leading to the formation of haploid gametes.
