Spermatogenesis,maturation,capacitation and fertilization are precisely regulated by glycosylation.How-ever,the relationship between altered glycosylation patterns and the onset and development of repro-ductive disorders is unclear,mainly limited by the lack of in situ imaging techniques for spermatozoa glycosylation.We developed an efficient and highly specific spermatozoa glycan imaging technique based on the robust chemoselective labeling of sialic acid(Sia)and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine(Gal/GalNAc).We further proposed a"tandem glycan chemoselective labeling"strategy to achieve simultaneous imaging of two types of glycans on spermatozoa.We applied the developed method to the spermatozoa from oligo-zoospermic patients and diabetic mice and found that these spermatozoa showed higher levels of Sia and Gal/GalNAc expression than the normal groups.Moreover,spermatozoa from diabetic mice showed a severe decrease in number,viability,and forward motility,suggesting that in vivo glucose metabolism disorders may lead to an elevated level of spermatozoa glycosylation and have a correlation with the development of oligoasthenotspermia.Our work provides a research tool to reveal the relationship be-tween glycosylation modification and spermatozoa quality,and a promising clue for the development of glycan-based reproductive markers.
