Sperm head morphology analysis of sperm cells in the normal individual and the ACTL7A-mutated patient. (A) Sperm nuclei stained with DAPI in the normal individual and the patient. 82% of sperm in ACTL7A-mutated patient showed smaller head compared with normal sperm. (B) Head morphology of sperm cells in the normal individual and the patient. (C) Area, bounding width, bounding height and perimeter of sperm head in the normal individual and the patient. (D) The elliptical volume of sperm head in the normal individual and the patient. Scale bars: 10 μm. ***P < 0.001
