<p>
Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disorder affecting the function of motile cilia in several organ systems. In PCD, male infertility is caused by defective sperm flagella composition or deficient motile cilia function in the efferent ducts of the male reproductive system. Different PCD-associated genes encoding axonemal components involved in the regulation of ciliary and flagellar beating are also reported to cause infertility due to multiple morphological abnormalities of the sperm flagella (MMAF). Here, we performed genetic testing by next generation sequencing techniques, PCD diagnostics including immunofluorescence-, transmission electron-, and high-speed video microscopy on sperm flagella and andrological work up including semen analyses. We identified ten infertile male individuals with pathogenic variants in <i>CCDC39</i> (one) and <i>CCDC40</i> (two) encoding ruler proteins, <i>RSPH1</i> (two) and <i>RSPH9</i> (one) encoding radial spoke head proteins, and <i>HYDIN</i> (two) and <i>SPEF2</i> (two) encoding CP-associated proteins, respectively. We demonstrate for the first time that pathogenic variants in <i>RSPH1</i> and <i>RSPH9</i> cause male infertility due to sperm cell dysmotility and abnormal flagellar RSPH1 and RSPH9 composition. We also provide novel evidence for MMAF in <i>HYDIN</i>- and <i>RSPH1</i>-mutant individuals. We show absence or severe reduction of CCDC39 and SPEF2 in sperm flagella of <i>CCDC39</i>- and <i>CCDC40</i>-mutant individuals and <i>HYDIN</i>- and <i>SPEF2</i>-mutant individuals, respectively. Thereby, we reveal interactions between CCDC39 and CCDC40 as well as HYDIN and SPEF2 in sperm flagella. Our findings demonstrate that immunofluorescence microscopy in sperm cells is a valuable tool to identify flagellar defects related to the axonemal ruler, radial spoke head and the central pair apparatus, thus aiding the diagnosis of male infertility. This is of particular importance to classify the pathogenicity of genetic defects, especially in cases of missense variants of unknown significance, or to interpret <i>HYDIN</i> variants that are confounded by the presence of the almost identical pseudogene <i>HYDIN2</i>.

<div class="figure-caption-contents">Schematic of the composition of motile 9 + 2 cilia and sperm flagella as well as representation of selected functional axonemal protein complexes involved in ciliary and flagellar beat regulation. <b>(A)</b> The upper panel shows a schematic representation of a ciliated respiratory epithelial cell (left) and a sperm cell (right). The sperm flagellum is divided into three regions; the mid piece, principal- and end piece. The middle panel shows cross sections through a respiratory cilia and the sperm flagellum. Both share a 9 + 2 axoneme composed of nine outer microtubule doublets (A- and B-tubule) surrounding a centered single pair of microtubules. Each outer A-tubule carries dynein based motor protein complexes, the outer- and inner dynein arms (respectively ODA and IDA). A nexin-link dynein regulatory complex (N-DRC) interconnects the outer doublets, while radial spoke (RS) complexes connect them to the central pair (CP) complex. In the sperm flagellar principal- and mid-piece the axoneme is additionally surrounded by accessory structures, such as the outer dense fibers (ODFs), the fibrous sheath (FS) and the mitochondrial (MT) sheath. <b>(B)</b> The lower panel shows schematics of the axonemal ruler, the RS and the CP complex. The ruler complex is representatively depicted in a longitudinal section of the axoneme. CCDC39 and CCDC40 form a heterodimer that is supposed to be located at the interface of the N-DRC and IDAs (composed of double headed IDA I1 with heavy chains α and β and the intermediate- and light chain (IC/LC) complex, and single headed IDAs a-e, and g) (Olbrich et al., 2015; Yamamoto et al., 2021). The RS complex is composed of a stalk and a head structure. RSPH1 and RSPH9, here highlighted, are known to be components of the RS head in human respiratory cilia (Frommer et al., 2015). The CP-complex is composed of two central microtubules connected by three intermicrotubular bridges. Several protein complexes are associated with the CP, e.g., the C1b and C2b projections, containing the proteins SPEF2 and HYDIN, respectively. In human respiratory cilia localization of SPEF2 depends on functional HYDIN (Cindrić et al., 2019).</div>

<div class="figure-caption-contents"><i>RSPH1</i> and <i>RSPH9</i> mutations cause abnormal radial spoke head composition in sperm flagella. Sperm cells from healthy control donors and infertile male individuals with pathogenic variants in <i>RSPH1</i> and <i>RSPH9</i> were co-stained with antibodies directed against acetylated α-tubulin (acet. tubulin; depicted in green) and RSPH1 and RSPH9, respectively (both depicted in red). <b>(A)</b> In control sperm cells, immunoreactivity against RSPH1 (red) is observed along the entire flagellar length. The RSPH1 signal co-localizes with the flagellar marker acet. tubulin (depicted in yellow in the merged image). <b>(B,C)</b> In sperm flagella of <i>RSPH1</i>-mutant individuals OP-3257 II1 and OP-3957 II1, a severe reduction of the RSPH1 signal or no signal is observed along the flagellar axonemes. <b>(D)</b> Sperm cells of <i>RSPH1</i>-mutant individual OP-3957 II1 display morphological abnormalities, comprising bent flagella and sperm head defects consistent with MMAF. <b>(E)</b> In control sperm cells, RSPH9 (red) shows a panaxonemal staining pattern and co-localization with the flagellar marker acet. tubulin (depicted in yellow in the merged image). <b>(F)</b> In contrast, sperm flagella of the <i>RSPH9</i>-mutant individual OP-2491 II1 display a severe reduction of the RSPH9 signal. The schematic shows the putative localization of the RSPH1 and RSPH9 proteins in the radial spoke head complex. Nuclei were stained with Hoechst33342. Scale bars represent 10 µm.</div>
