Background: During mammalian spermatogenesis, the cytoskeleton system plays a significant role in morphological changes. Male infertility such as non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) might be explained by studies of the cytoskeletal system during spermatogenesis.
Methods: The cytoskeleton, scaffold, and actin-binding genes were analyzed by microarray and bioinformatics (771 spermatogenic cellsgenes and 774 Sertoli cell genes).

Proteasome-mediated protein degradation is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis, particularly during spermatogenesis, where extensive cellular transformations, such as spermatid differentiation, require precise protein turnover. A key player in this process is the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS). This study aimed to investigate proteasome enzymatic activity at different stages of the spermatogenic cycle within the seminiferous tubules of mice and explore the regulatory mechanisms that influence its proteolytic function.

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification of RNA is a critical post-transcriptional modification, that dynamically contributes to testicular development and spermatogenesis. Nevertheless, the investigation into the role of m6A in testicular development of sheep remains insufficient. Herein, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the m6A transcriptome landscape in the testes of F1 hybrid Southdown × Hu sheep across M0 (0 months old, newborn), M3 (3 months old, sexually immature), M6 (6 months old, sexually mature), and Y1 (1 years old, adult).

The epididymal fat is required for the maintenance of normal spermatogenesis, and the lipectomy of epididymal fat at different postnatal age results in disrupted expression patterns of several testicular steroidogenic enzymes. The current research examined the effect of epididymal fat lipectomy at different postnatal ages on expression of cytochrome 5α-reductase I, cytochrome P450 aromatase, androgen receptor (AR), and estrogen receptors (ER) α and β in the mouse testis after 2 weeks of the lipectomy. The lipectomy of epididymal fat at 2 months of postnatal age resulted in significant increases of expression levels of cytochrome 5α-reductase I, cytochrome P450 aromatase, AR, and ER α and β.

Background: Spermatogonia are essential for the continual production of sperm and regeneration of the entire spermatogenic lineage after injury. In mammals, spermatogonia are formed in the neonatal testis from prospermatogonia (also termed gonocytes), which are established from primordial germ cells during fetal development. Currently, the molecular regulation of the prospermatogonial to spermatogonia transition is not fully understood.
