Ultrastructural evidence of spermatogenesis in the rusty parrotfish, Scarus ferrugineus (Teleostei Scaridae). [PDF]
Journal of Bioscience and Applied Research, 2015 This work analyses the spermatogenesis in the males of Scarus ferrugineus from histological and ultrastructural points of view. This study was carried out during the period of formation of spermatozoa thus being able to determine the pattern of ...

Meiotic Chromosome Synapsis and XY-Body Formation In Vitro
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021 To achieve spermatogenesis in vitro, one of the most challenging processes to mimic is meiosis. Meiotic problems, like incomplete synapsis of the homologous chromosomes, or impaired homologous recombination, can cause failure of crossover formation and ...

SYMPK Is Required for Meiosis and Involved in Alternative Splicing in Male Germ Cells
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 SYMPK is a scaffold protein that supports polyadenylation machinery assembly on nascent transcripts and is also involved in alternative splicing in some mammalian somatic cells. However, the role of SYMPK in germ cells remains unknown.

UBR2 of the N-end rule pathway is required for chromosome stability via histone ubiquitylation in spermatocytes and somatic cells [PDF]
, 2012 The N-end rule pathway is a proteolytic system in which its recognition components (N-recognins) recognize destabilizing N-terminal residues of short-lived proteins as an essential element of specific degrons, called N-degrons.

Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, 2009 Abstract Spermatocytic seminoma is a rare germ cell tumor distinct from classical seminoma, both clinically and pathologically. It affects older men, has not been associated with a history of cryptorchidism, and has no known counterpart in ovary or any other site.

A surge of late-occurring meiotic double-strand breaks rescues synapsis abnormalities in spermatocytes of mice with hypomorphic expression of SPO11 [PDF]
, 2015 Meiosis is the biological process that, after a cycle of DNA replication, halves the cellular chromosome complement, leading to the formation of haploid gametes.
