1.
Chavez D, Snow A, Smith J, Stanfield G
Development
. 2018 Nov;
145(24).
PMID: 30470702
The development of highly differentiated sperm cells that are specialized for navigating to and fusing with an oocyte is essential for sexual reproduction. As a major part of differentiation, sperm...

Krauchunas A, Mendez E, Zhouli Ni J, Druzhinina M, Mulia A, Parry J, et al.
Dev Biol
. 2018 Feb;
436(2):75-83.
PMID: 29477340
Successful fertilization requires that sperm are activated prior to contacting an oocyte. In C. elegans, this activation process, called spermiogenesis, transforms round immobile spermatids into motile, fertilization-competent spermatozoa. We describe...

Driscoll K, Stanfield G, Droste R, Horvitz H
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2017 Aug;
114(33):8806-8811.
PMID: 28760991
Apoptotic cells undergo a series of morphological changes. These changes are dependent on caspase cleavage of downstream targets, but which targets are significant and how they facilitate the death process...

Fenker K, Stanfield G
Worm
. 2015 Oct;
4(1):e1003002.
PMID: 26430556
Sperm from the nematode C. elegans gain motility during a process termed activation, which they initiate in response to specific environmental signals. During this process, a number of subcellular rearrangements...

Hansen J, Chavez D, Stanfield G
Elife
. 2015 Mar;
4.
PMID: 25789512
Competition among sperm to fertilize oocytes is a ubiquitous feature of sexual reproduction as well as a profoundly important aspect of sexual selection. However, little is known about the cellular...

Fenker K, Hansen A, Chong C, Jud M, Duffy B, Norton J, et al.
Dev Biol
. 2014 Jun;
393(1):171-82.
PMID: 24929237
Motility of sperm is crucial for their directed migration to the egg. The acquisition and modulation of motility are regulated to ensure that sperm move when and where needed, thereby...

Ellis R, Stanfield G
Semin Cell Dev Biol
. 2014 Apr;
29:17-30.
PMID: 24718317
In the nematode C. elegans, both males and self-fertile hermaphrodites produce sperm. As a result, researchers have been able to use a broad range of genetic and genomic techniques to...

Smith J, Stanfield G
Worm
. 2013 Sep;
1(3):151-4.
PMID: 24058840
Seminal fluid factors have been shown to play a significant role in fertility in many animals. However, little is known about the contributions of seminal fluid to male fertility in...

Smith J, Stanfield G
PLoS Genet
. 2011 Nov;
7(11):e1002375.
PMID: 22125495
Seminal fluid proteins have been shown to play important roles in male reproductive success, but the mechanisms for this regulation remain largely unknown. In Caenorhabditis elegans, sperm differentiate from immature...

Stanfield G, Villeneuve A
Curr Biol
. 2006 Feb;
16(3):252-63.
PMID: 16461278
Background: Sexual reproduction in animals requires the production of highly specialized motile sperm cells that can navigate to and fertilize ova. During sperm differentiation, nonmotile spermatids are remodeled into motile...
