Spermatogenesis without spermiogenesis in Laudakia caucasia (Reptilia: Agamidae): the role of hibernation [PDF]
During hibernation period from Mid October to Late March, we removed testis of Laudakia caucasia. Based on histological and statistical analyses we obtained two phases in spermatogenesis in this lizard as follows: (a) from October to December, in which ...

Centriole remodeling during spermiogenesis in Drosophila [PDF]
The first cell of an animal (zygote) requires centrosomes that are assembled from paternally inherited centrioles and maternally inherited pericentriolar material (PCM) [1].

Mitochondrial Features and Expressions of MFN2 and DRP1 during Spermiogenesis in Phascolosoma esculenta [PDF]
Mitochondria can fuse or divide, a phenomenon known as mitochondrial dynamics, and their distribution within a cell changes according to the physiological status of the cell.

Tex13a Optimizes Sperm Motility via Its Potential Roles in mRNA Turnover
mRNAs have been found to undergo substantial selective degradation during the late stages of spermiogenesis. However, the mechanisms regulating this biological process are unknown. In this report, we have identified Tex13a, a spermatid-specific gene that

Delta-6 desaturase-null mice (−/−) are unable to synthesize highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs): arachidonic acid (AA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and n6-docosapentaenoic acid (DPAn6).

Spermiogenesis in the rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) [PDF]
In an ultrastructural study on the spermiogenesis of the rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri R.) four spermatogenetic stages were identified. In young round spermatids, the nuclear chromatin was first heterogeneous (euchromatin and heterochromatin ...

Loss of Axdnd1 causes sterility due to impaired spermatid differentiation in mice
Purpose Spermiogenesis, the process of deformation of sperm head morphology and flagella formation, is a phenomenon unique to sperm. Axonemal dynein light chain proteins are localized to sperm flagella and are known to be involved in sperm motility. Here,

MEIG1 is essential for spermiogenesis in mice [PDF]
Spermatogenesis can be divided into three stages: spermatogonial mitosis, meiosis of spermatocytes, and spermiogenesis. During spermiogenesis, spermatids undergo dramatic morphological changes including formation of a flagellum and chromosomal packaging and condensation of the nucleus into the sperm head.

Drosophila PhLP3/CG4511 is Required for Spermiogenesis [PDF]
Phosducin-like protein 3 (PhLP3) has been shown to possess redox activity, and it is believed to function as a co-chaperone in the folding of cytoskeletal proteins.
