Andrology Embryology Review Course Manual On Transportation System

  • Male have two testicles which are components of both the reproductive and the ndocrine system. Therefore, the two main functions of the testicles are: producing sperm (approximately 1 million per hour) and male sex hormones (e.g. testosterone).
  • The process of the formation of spermatogenic stem cells into mature spermatozoa cells is called spermatogenesis. The main event during this process is the reduction of the genome of the spermatogenic stem cell; developing haploid cells from diploid cells. Next to that, other structural changes will take place, forming spermatogonia into mature spermatids which have the right shape and equipments to fertilize an oocyte. Spermatogenesis is a process that takes place in the testis, which can be divided over three phases, proliferation phase, meiosis and differentiation phase (spermiogenesis). In the beginning, germ cells are located in the epithelium which surrounds the seminiferous tubuli in the testis.
  • Meiosis organizes cell division and results in the formation of gametes required for sexual reproduction. There are two cell divisions, namely meiosis I and meiosis II. Firstly the prophase of meiosis is entered by preleptotene primary spermatocytes, spermatocytes that just underwent their last DNA replication. These preleptotene spermatocytes move to the adluminal compartment of the seminiferous tubuli, where the following steps of meiosis occur, respectively DNA condensation and alignment of the homolog chromosomes. During this conformation homologous recombination is possible, which results in genetic alterations of the genome. Subsequently segregation of the two sister chromatids arrange and two haploid spermatocytes are formed. During meiosis II division of the two haploid spermatocytes will complete the second phase of spermatogenesis by arranging four haploid cells.
  • This final process occurs in the passage from the testis via the epididymal duct to the distal end of the epididymis.
    The structural alterations include formation of the acrosome (an organelle containing enzymes which are required for fertilization),elongation of the nucleus, formation of a long tail including an axoneme (relevant in the motility of the tail) and the removal of majority of the cytoplasm.
    At the end a mature spermatozoon is developed and stored in the epididymis, waiting on the moment it will release the male body to fulfill its reproductive function by fertilizing an oocyte.
    Considering this long process of germ cell maturation, the probability of developing any defects during this process is present and can cause infertility.
  • Hormonal regulation of spermatogenesis is organized as control circuit with a negative feed-back mechanism involving hypothalamus, pituitary, and testis.
    Specific neurons of the hypothalamus synthesize gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) which induces the production of two hormones within the pituitary, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). While high pulse rate of GnRH release (1 impulse per 1 hour) results in the production of LH,
    low pulse rate of GnRH release (1 impulse per 2 hours) results in the production of FSH. Within the testis, LH causes synthesis of testosterone by intertubular Leydig cells which negatively influences hormone release in hypothalamus and pituitary. By contrast, FSH acts on intratubular Sertoli cells. It induces the production of androgen-binding protein (ABP) by means of which testosterone can pass the Sertoli-Sertoli junctional complexes, as well as the production of activin and inhibin by Sertoli cells which both influences hormone release in hypothalamus and pituitary.
  • Spermatozoa are transported into the epididymis via the head (caput), progress to the body (corpus) and finally reach the tail (cauda), where they are stored. During their passage, spermatozoa undergo maturation to acquire motility necessary for fertilizing an egg. Note that final maturation is completed within the female reproductive tract (capacitation).
    Sperm maturation involves morphological and biochemical changes in the sperm surface in response to the epididymal secretions of enzymes, proteins and glycoproteins, which are essential in the process of fertilization.
    In the process of sperm maturation, molecules are secreted into the luminal fluid by different regions of the epididymis. These molecules interact sequentially with the surface of the spermatozoa or the acrosome, and alter their molecular function. In this process, some proteins bind to the sperm and presumably affect sperm function directly. Some proteins will later bind to the zona pellucida or the plasma membrane of the oocyte. Other proteins remain in the lumen throughout the length of the tubule.
  • Seminiferous tubules converge to form the rete testis, which in turn gives rise to the efferent ducts (ductuli efferentes).
    These tubules converge to form a single highly coiled duct, the epididymis (from the Greek meaning “on or adjacent to the testis”), which is extremely long (6 m in humans).
    The duct of the epididymis has stereocilia that:
    Absorb testicular fluid
    Pass nutrients to the sperm
    Nonmotile sperm enter, pass through its tubes and become motile (propelled by peristalsis)
    Upon ejaculation the epididymis contracts, expelling sperm into the ductus deferens
  • “Testicular sperm” need to undergo more maturation steps before they are ready to fertilize
    Transported from the testes to the epididymis, where they mature, and acquire the ability to swim
    Then moved to the vas deferens, for storage
    At ejaculation, the sperm are transported out of the vas and mix with accessory gland secretions:
    prostatic fluid (pH slightly acidic to neutral; contains citric acid and zinc)
    seminal vesicle fluid (pH strongly alkaline; contains fructose)
