Multiple mating is not driven by size and sperm management in black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens)
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.We investigated mating in black soldier fly (BSF), Hermetia illucens (Diptera: Stratiomyidae), an important source of animal feed. The number of spermatozoa stored in the spermathecae of females does not change after one, two and three matings of the male. BSF males and females mate multiple times under controlled conditions. The number of sperm in the

Adverse impact of acute Toxoplasma gondii infection on human spermatozoa
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites injected intraperitoneally crossed the blood‐testes barrier, appearing in testes/epididymis by day 6 post‐infection. In vitro exposure caused increased sperm necrosis/apoptosis and structural damage to heads/tails. Immunofluorescence and SEM revealed tachyzoites attaching to sperm tails, inducing twisting/detachment, and ...

A guide to heat shock factors as multifunctional transcriptional regulators
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.The heat shock factors (HSFs) are evolutionarily conserved transcription factors best known as regulators of molecular chaperone genes in response to heat shock and other protein‐damaging stresses. Vertebrate HSFs, HSF1‐5, HSFX, and HSFY, are implicated in various physiological and pathological processes, including organismal development and cancer ...

The Safety of Nail Products: Health Threats in the Nail Industry
International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The information on nail product safety is currently limited, but has been increasing in recent years. This increasing research has shown that some ingredients in nail products are hazardous and can lead to both dermatologic and systemic diseases. This risk is present for nail product consumers and is increased for nail technicians.
