Head rotation in human spermatozoa is essential for different swimming modes and fertilisation, as it links the molecular workings of flagellar beat with sperm motion three-dimensional (3D) space over time. Determining direction head has been hindered by symmetry translucent nature head, fast 3D driven helical beat. Analysis mostly restricted to two-dimensional (2D) single focal plane image analysis, which enables tracking centre position but not rotation. Despite conserved beating flagellum, reported be uni- or bi-directional, even intermittently change a given cell. Here, we directly measure freely using multi-plane 4D (3D+t) microscopy show that: (1) 2D unable distinguish spermatozoa; (2) non-capacitating capacitating solutions, both aqueous viscous media, counterclockwise (CCW), seen from tail, all rotating spermatozoa, regardless experimental conditions; (3) suppressed 36% medium, although CCW recovered after incubation conditions within same possibly unveiling an unexplored aspect need capacitation fertilisation. Our observations that conserved.

A large proportion of infertility and miscarriage causes are unknown. One potential cause is a defective sperm centriole, subcellular structure essential for motility embryonic development. Yet, the extent to which centriolar maladies contribute male unknown due lack convenient way assess centriole quality. We developed robust, location-based, ratiometric assay overcome this roadblock, Fluorescence-based Ratiometric Assessment Centrioles (FRAC). performed case series study with semen samples from 33 patients, separated using differential gradient centrifugation into higher-grade (pellet) lower-grade (interface) fractions. Using reference population infertile men morphologically standard sperm, we found that 79% substandard morphology have suboptimal centrioles (P = 0.0005). Moreover, tubulin labeling distal correlates negatively age 0.004, R -0.66). These findings suggest FRAC sensitive method patient associated
