Improvement of Mouse Spermatozoa Freezing at ‐80°C With Ascorbic Acid 2‐Glucoside at Thawing Phase

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sperm cryopreservation is the most common method to maintain a great number of mutant mouse lines. However, the use of liquid nitrogen (LN2) for freezing presents considerable problems in terms of cost, safety, and accessibility. For this reason, the storage of semen samples at ‐80° in ultra‐freezers has been increasingly used in ...

Sperm Head–Tail Coupling Apparatus Diversity and Common Themes Among Species

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A stable connection between the sperm head (containing the nucleus and acrosome) and tail (containing the axoneme, mitochondrial sheath, and periaxonemal structures) is critical for fertility. This connection is mediated by a series of nuclear, cytoplasmic, and centriole components that make up the head–tail coupling apparatus (HTCA)

First Insights on Photoreceptor Organ Ultrastructure in Marine Chaetonotida (Gastrotricha): Species of Xenotrichula and Draculiciteria (Xenotrichulidae)

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine gastrotrichs inhabit sediments with limited available light, yet evidence suggests that photoreceptor organs are present throughout the phylum Gastrotricha. Here, we confirm this proposition with ultrastructural descriptions of photoreceptive organs in two species of Xenotrichulidae (Order Chaetonotida) that lack pigmented ocelli ...

Anatomy and Histology of the Midgut of Atopozelus opsimus (Heteroptera: Reduviidae)

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atopozelus opsimus Elkins, 1954 (Heteroptera: Reduviidae) preys on forest and agricultural pests but also feeds on extrafloral nectar; however, its alimentary canal is poorly understood. The aim was to describe the anatomy and histology of the A. opsimus midgut. The alimentary canal of female and male A.
