Cytoplasmic droplet acting as a mitochondrial modulator during sperm maturation in dogs
(2017-06-01)
Motility acquisition during sperm maturation and passage through the epididymis is closely related to mitochondrial function and appears to occur in parallel with cytoplasmic droplet (CD) migration. However, such mechanism ...
Glutamate-induced obesity leads to decreased sperm reserves and acceleration of transit time in the epididymis of adult male rats
(BMC, 2012-12-05)
Abstract
Background
Given the established fact that obesity interferes with male reproductive functions, the present study aimed to evaluate sperm production in the testis ...
Aquaporin 9 (AQP9) localization in the adult dog testis excurrent ducts by immunohistochemistry
(Wiley-lissHobokenEUA, 2007)
EVALUATION OF THE FREEZABILITY OF THE BOVINE EPIDIDYMIS TAIL SPERM WITH THE ADDITION OF ANTIOXIDANTS
(Cryo Letters, 2021-03-01)
BACKGROUND: The cryopreservation and recovery of epididymis tail sperm is an important biotechnology dependent on the composition of the freezing medium. OBJETIVE: To evaluate the effect of melatonin, added to commercial ...
Glutamate-induced obesity leads to decreased sperm reserves and acceleration of transit time in the epididymis of adult male rats
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTDLONDON, 2012)
Background: Given the established fact that obesity interferes with male reproductive functions, the present study aimed to evaluate sperm production in the testis and storage in the epididymis in a glutamate-induced model ...
Testosterone influences the expression and distribution of the cation-dependent mannose-6-phosphate receptor in rat epididymis. Implications in the distribution of enzymes
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2013-01-07)
The mammalian epididymis plays a role in sperm maturation through its secretory activity. Among the proteins secreted by the epithelium, there are significant amounts of acid hydrolases. In most cell types, the normal ...
Mating plugs and male sperm storage in Bothrops cotiara (Serpentes, Viperidae)
(2017-01-01)
We describe two new aspects of male reproduction in the pit viper Bothrops cotiara: the formation of mating plugs and epididymal sperm storage. Based on histological analyses of specimens (four males and three females), ...
Mating plugs and male sperm storage in Bothrops cotiara (Serpentes, Viperidae)
(British Herpetol Soc, 2017-01-01)
We describe two new aspects of male reproduction in the pit viper Bothrops cotiara: the formation of mating plugs and epididymal sperm storage. Based on histological analyses of specimens (four males and three females), ...
Spermatic and testicular damages in rats exposed to ethanol: Influence of lipid peroxidation but not testosterone
(Elsevier B.V., 2015-04-01)
Chronic consumption of ethanol causes morphological and physiological changes in the reproductive system of mammals. Vitamin C has an antioxidant role in organisms by neutralizing the ROS (reactive oxygen species) produced ...
Changes in lysosomal enzymes and mannose-6-phosphate receptors related to sexual maturation in bull epididymis
(Csiro Publishing, 2015-04)
One of the most striking features of the mammalian epididymis is the secretion of lysosomal enzymes (LE). These LE may play a role in sperm maturation. In the present study we investigated the activity and distribution ...
