reproductive system
• males show a ~5-fold reduction in cauda epididymal sperm number relative to control males
• males show a ~3-fold increase in morphologically abnormal cauda epididymidal sperm relative to control males
• 63% of sperm show midpiece curling
• 29% of sperm have bent tails, with flagella bent or folded at the annulus
• 2% of sperm have multiple tails
• 6% of sperm show head malformations
• males show a 3-fold increase in spermatocyte apoptosis, as determined by co-staining with cleaved cPARP1 (a marker for apoptosis) and SYCP3 (a spermatocyte marker)
• adult testes are ~30% smaller than control testes
• however, testis histology shows complete spermatogenesis with supporting cells and multiple generations of germ cells
• adult testis weight is significantly lower than in control males
• however, adult body weight is normal
• when adult males are bred with wild-type females for 4 months, average litter size is significantly lower than in control males
• however, total number of litters is normal
• sperm lysates exhibit significantly reduced PPP1CC (protein phosphatase 1 catalytic subunit gamma, aka PP1) activity relative to lysates from control sperm
• specific sperm motility parameters, including % progressive motility, path velocity (VAP), curvilinear velocity (VCL) and relative motility index (RMI = % motility x straight line velocity (VSL)/100), are all significantly increased relative to controls
• however, % total motility and other parameters including lateral amplitude (ALH), beat frequency (BCF), straightness (STR), and linearity (LIN) are not significantly altered
• sperm progressive motility is increased by 25% relative to that in control males
