A Testis‐Specific Aralkylamine N‐Acetyltransferase Regulates Dimorphic Sperm Function and Male Fertility in Moths

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We identify a Lepidoptera‐conserved testis‐specific arylalkylamine N‐acetyltransferase (LTNAT) that governs male moth fertility via a novel mechanism. LTNAT loss disrupts eupyrene sperm mitochondrial derivatives and impairs apyrene sperm motility, offering a safe molecular target for innovative pesticides and genetic pest control.

Ultrastructural evidence for the activation of autophagy and analysis of the protective role of autophagy in goat spermatozoa under liquid storage

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
Liquid storage of semen is a widely used technology for promoting genetic improvement in goat breeding. The short shelf life of spermatozoa greatly limits the application of liquid storage, which urgently needs to explore the underlying regulatory ...

REVIEW: Current Status of Extenders and Cryoprotectants on Fish Spermatozoa Cryopreservation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
An important component of many studies of cryopreservation of fish spermatozoa is the type of extenders and cryoprotectants. The suitability of extenders and cryoprotectants differs from one fish to another.

PSMA8‐Containing 20S Proteasome Regulates Spermiogenesis and Male Fertility

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
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.

Successful ICSI in Mice Using Caput Epididymal Spermatozoa

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019
Spermatozoa undergo their last phase of spermiogenesis, known as maturation, as they pass through the epididymis. A recent report indicates that mouse immature spermatozoa retrieved from the caput epididymis for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI ...

Maintenance of Constant Wave Parameters by Sperm Flagella at Reduced Frequencies of Beat [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
1. Treatment of Ciona spermatozoa with low concentrations of Triton X-100 (less than 0·01 %) causes them to beat at lower than normal frequencies. The wavelength of the flagellar bending waves remains constant over the range from 10 to 40 Hz.

Inhibition and relaxation of sea urchin sperm flagella by vanadate [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
Direct measurements of the stiffness (elastic bending resistance) of demembranated sera urchin sperm flagella were made in the presence of MgATP2- and vanadate.

Sertoli Cell‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Orchestrate Cadmium‐Induced Testicular Inflammation and Fibrosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Environmental cadmium exposure disrupts testicular homeostasis through a novel intercellular communication axis. Stressed Sertoli cells release extracellular vesicles carrying damage‐associated molecular patterns and mitochondrial fragments, which activate macrophages via TLR4/NF‐κB signaling.
