Epididymo-orchitis is an inflammation of the testicles and epididymis that can compromise male fertility by causing spermatogenic dysfunction, disruption of the blood-testis barrier, and reduced sperm motility. Animal models have shown that bacterial and viral infections trigger exacerbated inflammatory responses, characterized by increased pro-inflammatory cytokines and leukocyte infiltr…
The k18-hACE2 transgenic mice that express human ACE2, an essential protein for the infection of host cell by SARS-CoV-2, has been used to investigate the impact of the viral infection. The epididymis, an essential organ for male fertility, is responsible for spermatozoa maturation and protection of these cells against pathogens. The epithelial and stromal cells exert immunological respon…
COVID-19, a disease induced by SARS-CoV-2 virus, is a serious respiratory disease responsible for the pandemic declared by the World Health Organization in 2020. A transgenic mice (K18-hACE2) expressing the human ACE2, an essential protein that mediates viral entry into host cells, was created as a model of study to investigate the impact of COVID-19 in the organism. The epididymal cells …
Epididymis is a coiled long tube essential for male reproduction and fertility. The cells of the pseudostratified columnar epithelium produce a special luminal fluid that maintain, nourish and stimulates the maturation of spermatozoa. The clear cells are responsive to luminal microenvironment stimuli and, by the accumulation of V-ATPase in the apical membrane, these cells secrete protons,…
The global pandemic COVID-19, caused by SARS-CoV-2, lead to millions of deaths worldwide, and studies have shown that men were more susceptible to infection. The epididymis is an essential organ for male fertility since the specialized luminal environment provides sperm motility and fertilizing capacity. Clear cells, one of the most abundant cells in the epididymis, regulate the luminal f…
