Single‐Cell Insights Into Pathogenic Profile of Orchitis and SREBP2‐Associated Cholesterol Dysregulation in Spermatogenic Failure

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A first single‐cell atlas of human orchitis reveals coordinated germ‐cell loss, somatic niche dysfunction, and immune‐metabolic remodeling. Aberrant SREBP2 activation in testicular somatic cells emerges as a central pathogenic node, while Fatostatin‐mediated inhibition of the SREBP pathway improves spermatogenesis, fibrosis, and lipid accumulation in a

The musculature and skeleton of the pelvic fin of the crocodile shark, Pseudocarcharias kamoharai (Matsubara, 1936) (Elasmobranchii: Lamniformes): Morphology and sexual dimorphism

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This work brings new information on the sexual characteristics of the crocodile shark (Pseudocarcharias kamoharai) exploring the pelvic fin musculature, as well as the siphon sac and the musculature and skeleton of the clasper. Our paper is the first to point out clearly the sexual dimorphism related exclusively to the pelvic fin musculature in males ...

Developmental morphology of claspers and clasper‐glands during maturation in Potamotrygon wallacei (Chondrichthyes: Potamotrygoninae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The claspers are the copulatory organs in male elasmobranchs, responsible for directing the semen into the female cloaca (C). However, the microscopic morphology of the claspers remains poorly understood. This study describes the morphology of the claspers and clasper glands (CGs) of cururu stingray (Potamotrygon wallacei) at different ...

Addition of Cryoprotectant DMSO Reduces Damage to Spermatozoa of Yellow Catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco) during Cryopreservation: Ultrastructural Damage, Oxidative Damage and DNA Damage

Animals
Spermatozoa cryopreservation protocols have been established for yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco), but cryopreservation can still cause cellular damage and affect spermatozoa viability and fertility.

Rheotaxis facilitates upstream navigation of mammalian sperm cells [PDF]

, 2014
A major puzzle in biology is how mammalian sperm maintain the correct swimming direction during various phases of the sexual reproduction process. Whilst chemotaxis may dominate near the ovum, it is unclear which cues guide spermatozoa on their long ...

Male reproductive system in stenopodidean shrimps: Unveiling basal reproductive traits in shrimp‐like Pleocyemata (Stenopodidae and Spongicolidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Stenopodidea represents one of the basal lineages within Pleocyemata, yet the male reproductive system (MRS) of this group remains poorly understood, with limited information available regarding its morphology and function. This study provides the first detailed description of the MRS in four stenopodidean shrimp species from two families ...

Morphophysiological dynamics of the proximal post‐testicular ducts in Crotalus durissus Linnaeus, 1758 (Squamata: Viperidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The organization and function of reptilian excurrent ducts remain poorly characterized, particularly in Neotropical snakes. We provide the first integrative morphological, histochemical, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructural analysis of the proximal post‐testicular ducts of Crotalus durissus across reproductive stages.

Hormonal control and signaling of the testis of the bat Molossus molossus during the processes of testicular maturation, regression, and recrudescence

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Molossus molossus, a species of neotropical bat belonging to the Molossidae family, has an annual reproductive cycle that includes two peaks of spermatogenic activity, one in April and another in September, and a period of total testicular regression in December.
