Mitochondrial structural and functional analyses of mouse sperm. Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) of sperm in mice based on measurement of the JC‐1 red/green fluorescence ratio (A) and TMRM staining (B and C, CCCP as a positive control). (D) The ratio of si‐DMA fluorescence intensity to TMRM fluorescence intensity. (E) Mitochondrial morphology of sperm from cauda epididymis in CD and HFD mice was observed by transmission electron microscope (TEM). Scale bars, 200 nm. (F) Statistical analysis of sperm mitochondrial diameters. (G) Comparison of sperm ATP content between CD and HFD mice. (H) Comparative proteomics analysis of differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) relevant to mitochondrial function in sperm between CD and HFD mice. Data are expressed as mean ± SD (n = 10). Statistical analysis was performed using the Student's t‐test. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01. JC‐1, tetrechloro‐tetraethylbenzimidazol carbocyanine iodide; TMRM, tetramethyl rhodamine methyl ester.
