Sperm Activation: Time and Tide Wait for No Sperm
Studies of the reproductive biology of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans are providing valuable insights into the evolution and diversity of reproductive strategies [1,2]. The successful production of progeny in any species also highlights many fundamental problems in cell biology. Research on the amoeboid sperm of nematodes addresses a number of issues of broad biological significance, inclu...
متن کاملTime and Tide Wait for No Diagram
Time plays an important role in some application domains, and can be quite difficult to deal with in diagrams. This is not only true for temporal uncertainty, but also for periodic events. We compare nine different representations that include a notion of time or that are mainly used for temporal information: Time Lines/LifeLines, AsbruView, Ganttand PERT-Charts, Shinkansen timetables, Temporal...
متن کاملRelative testis size and sperm morphometry across mammals: no evidence for an association between sperm competition and sperm length.
Understanding why there is extensive variation in sperm form and function across taxa has been a challenge because sperm are specialized cells operating at a microscopic level in a complex environment. This comparative study collates published data to determine whether the evolution of sperm morphometry (sperm total length and separate component dimensions) is associated with sperm competition ...
متن کاملI-9: Activation and Selection of Sperm for IVF and ICSI
Background: During spermatogenesis the sperm nucleus exchange histones against cystein rich protamines, which stabilize the sperm chromatin and protects the DNA against damages. At ejaculation the age of the patient, handling routines, processing of the semen sample and the storage of the final sperm suspension might damage the DNA. Sperm chromatin stability and DNA damages are evaluated with d...
متن کاملPosthumous sperm retrieval: analysis of time interval to harvest sperm.
BACKGROUND Current recommendations regarding posthumous sperm retrieval (PSR) are based on a small number of cases. Our purpose was to determine the time interval from death to a successful procedure. METHODS Seventeen consecutive PSR procedures in 14 deceased and 3 neurologically brain-dead patients at two male infertility centres [Sheba Medical Center (SMC), Tel-Hashomer, Israel and Univers...
