Integrated metabolomic and microbiota analysis of semen: seasonal and morphological associations [PDF]
Asian Journal of AndrologyRecent studies have begun to investigate the metabolic and microbiota profiles in semen, yet their association with abnormal sperm morphology, particularly in teratozoospermia, remains insufficiently characterized.

Genetics of teratozoospermia: Back to the head [PDF]
Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2020 Spermatozoa are polarized cells with a head and a flagellum joined by the connecting piece. Head integrity is critical for normal sperm function, and head defects consistently lead to male infertility. Abnormalities of the sperm head are among the most severe and characteristic sperm defects.

Aneuploidy in spermatozoa of infertile men with teratozoospermia [PDF]
International Journal of Andrology, 2001 Recent studies have shown that aneuploidy in spermatozoa of infertile men with poor semen quality is increased. The purpose of this study was to determine whether poor sperm morphology is associated with the incidence of spermatozoa with numerical chromosome abnormalities.

ACTN4 Mediates SEPT14 Mutation-Induced Sperm Head Defects
Biomedicines, 2020 Septins (SEPTs) are highly conserved GTP-binding proteins and the fourth component of the cytoskeleton. Polymerized SEPTs participate in the modulation of various cellular processes, such as cytokinesis, cell polarity, and membrane dynamics, through ...

The Effect of Teratozoospermia on Sex Chromosomes in Human Embryos
The Application of Clinical Genetics, 2021 The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of abnormal semen morphology on the frequency of sex chromosomal abnormalities in embryos obtained by ICSI, which represents the first to be studied in Egyptian population.Forty-two couples suffering from male infertility due to teratozoospermia were divided into two groups: patients with severe and ...
