Proteomic profile of human spermatozoa in healthy and asthenozoospermic individuals
Asthenozoospermia is considered as a common cause of male infertility and characterized by reduced sperm motility. However, the molecular mechanism that impairs sperm motility remains unknown in most cases.

Treatment of Asthenozoospermia by Intratesticular Testosterone Therapy [PDF]
A single intratesticular injection of 0.5 cc of 50 mg/ml of an aqueous testosterone suspension was administered to 14 patients with asthenozoospermia. In 7 cases, injection was combined with ultrasound of 0.5 w/cm2 for 2 min weekly for 4 weeks. In another 4 cases, only ultrasound was applied.

Absolute asthenozoospermia and ICSI: what are the options? [PDF]
Complete asthenozoospermia, i.e. 100% immotile spermatozoa in the ejaculate, is reported at a frequency of 1 of 5000 men. Its diagnosis implies a poor fertility prognosis even with ICSI. It is extremely important to distinguish between two different groups of patients with complete asthenozoospermia, i.e. virtual or absolute asthenozoospermia. With the

Acupuncture for oligospermia and asthenozoospermia
Abstract Background: Acupuncture is widely used for oligospermia and asthenozoospermia in China, but its effect is unclear. We aimed to determine the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture in treating oligospermia and asthenozoospermia.

Zinc (in the form of Zn2+) is necessary for male fertility. Both Zn2+ quantity and its localisation have been detected in seminal plasma and ejaculated spermatozoa, suggesting its active uptake via zinc import transporters (ZIPs).

Linggui Yangyuan paste for patients with male infertility: a study protocol for a multicenter, double-blind, double-dummy, randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Male infertility affects millions of men worldwide and is increasing in prevalence, with asthenozoospermia (AS) and oligoasthenozoospermia (OA) being the most frequent causes, and current treatments are limited.

Proteomic Landscape of Human Sperm in Patients with Different Spermatogenic Impairments
Although the proteome of sperm has been characterized, there is still a lack of high-throughput studies on dysregulated proteins in sperm from subfertile men, with only a few studies on the sperm proteome in asthenozoospermic and oligoasthenozoospermic ...

Severe asthenozoospermia: a structural and functional study [PDF]
SummaryEjaculates from 25 patients with severe asthenozoospermia (all spermatozoa immotile or only non‐progressively motile) were studied to identify individually the cause of impaired motility. Multiple tests were performed, viz. light and electron microscopic studies and sperm function tests.

Background and aims Motility and morphological defects of spermatozoa can cause male infertility. Sperm RNAs are related to sperm quality. They are considered to have clinical values as a biomarker for assessing sperm quality and fertility potential. The
