SEPT12-Microtubule Complexes Are Required for Sperm Head and Tail Formation
The septin gene belongs to a highly conserved family of polymerizing GTP-binding cytoskeletal proteins. SEPTs perform cytoskeletal remodeling, cell polarity, mitosis, and vesicle trafficking by interacting with various cytoskeletons. Our previous studies have indicated that SEPTIN12+/+/+/- chimeras with a SEPTIN12 mutant allele were infertile. Spermatozoa from the vas deferens of chimeric mice ...
متن کاملSEPT12–NDC1 Complexes Are Required for Mammalian Spermiogenesis
Male factor infertility accounts for approximately 50 percent of infertile couples. The male factor-related causes of intracytoplasmic sperm injection failure include the absence of sperm, immotile sperm, immature sperm, abnormally structured sperm, and sperm with nuclear damage. Our knockout and knock-in mice models demonstrated that SEPTIN12 (SEPT12) is vital for the formation of sperm morpho...
متن کاملO-10: Formation and Molecular Composition of The Sperm Head to Tail Coupling Apparatus
Background According to a worldwide survey in 2010 infertility affects 48.5 million of couples. In roughly half of the cases infertility is provoked by the male mate. Thus, a significant percentage of young men are infertile but the underlying causes are mostly unknown. Male fertility and reproduction success critically depends on proper formation of the mature sperm. Transmission of the geneti...
متن کاملPolyamines are required for microtubule formation during gastric mucosal healing.
Polyamines are essential for the repair of gastric and duodenal erosions. Concentrated NaCl (3.4 M) given intragastrically damages the oxyntic gland mucosa and increases the activity of gastric mucosal ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), the first rate-limiting enzyme in polyamine synthesis. The nature of the process of restitution of damaged mucosa is not well known, except that cell migration and ...
متن کاملSEPT12/SPAG4/LAMINB1 Complexes Are Required for Maintaining the Integrity of the Nuclear Envelope in Postmeiotic Male Germ Cells
Male infertility affects approximately 50% of all infertile couples. The male-related causes of intracytoplasmic sperm injection failure include the absence of sperm, immotile or immature sperm, and sperm with structural defects such as those caused by premature chromosomal condensation and DNA damage. Our previous studies based on a knockout mice model indicated that SEPT12 proteins are critic...
