Journal ArticleDOI
Consistent age-dependent declines in human semen quality: A systematic review and meta-analysis
TL;DR: It is suggested that greater focus on collection of DNA fragmentation and progressive motility in a clinical setting may lead to better patient outcomes during fertility treatments of aging couples, even though sperm concentration did not decline with increasing male age.
Journal ArticleDOI
The cytoskeleton in spermatogenesis
TL;DR: This review summarises the organisational and functional aspects of the four major cytoskeletal components during the various spermatogenic phases in mammals and highlights the critical importance of a dynamic and precisely regulated cytoskeleton for male fertility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Haploid male germ cells-the Grand Central Station of protein transport.
Christiane Pleuger,Christiane Pleuger,Mari S. Lehti,Mari S. Lehti,Jessica E. M. Dunleavy,Daniela Fietz,Moira K O'Bryan +6 more
TL;DR: It is believed that the continuous and spatiotemporally restrained nature of spermiogenesis provides an outstanding model system to identify, and de-code, cytoskeletal elements and transport mechanisms of relevance to multiple tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Katanin-like 2 (KATNAL2) functions in multiple aspects of haploid male germ cell development in the mouse
Jessica E. M. Dunleavy,Hidenobu Okuda,Anne E O'Connor,D. Jo Merriner,Liza O'Donnell,Duangporn Jamsai,Martin Bergmann,Moira K O'Bryan +7 more
TL;DR: Critical roles for the poorly characterised katanin protein KATNAL2 in multiple aspects of spermatogenesis are defined: the initiation of sperm tail growth from the basal body, sperm head shaping via the manchette, acrosome attachment, and ultimately sperm release.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence that fertility trades off with early offspring fitness as males age
Sheri L. Johnson,Sylvia Zellhuber-McMillan,Joanne Gillum,Jessica E. M. Dunleavy,Jonathan P. Evans,Shinichi Nakagawa,Shinichi Nakagawa,Neil J. Gemmell +7 more
TL;DR: Using in vitro fertilization, it is shown that offspring from older males exhibit superior early survival compared to those from their youngest counterparts, suggesting that the high offspring fitness observed for the subset of males that survive to an old age may represent compensating benefits for declining fertility with age.
