Occupational Physical Activity Is Negatively Associated With Semen Quality

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Lifestyle factors have been associated with semen quality and have been implicated in the reported global decline in semen parameters. Moderate physical activity has been linked to improved semen quality; however, the association between occupational physical activity and semen quality is limited.

Spectrum of Congenital Malformations in Sex Chromosome Tetrasomies and Pentasomies: A Systematic Review

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sex chromosome aneuploidies represent a heterogeneous group of chromosomal conditions, in which phenotypic complexity generally increases with the number of supernumerary sex chromosomes. While Turner syndrome and sex chromosome trisomies are relatively well characterized, less is known about congenital malformations in sex chromosome ...

Caveolin 1 Regulates the Tight Junctions between Sertoli Cells and Promotes the Integrity of Blood–Testis Barrier in Yak via the FAK/ERK Signaling Pathway

open access: yesAnimals
Yaks, a valuable livestock species endemic to China’s Tibetan plateau, have a low reproductive rate. Cryptorchidism is believed to be one of the leading causes of infertility in male yaks. In this study, we compared the morphology of the normal testis of

Seminal Biomarkers and Sperm Proteomic Signatures Differentiate Acute and Chronic Male Accessory Gland Inflammation

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Male accessory gland inflammation (MAGI) comprises a heterogeneous group of inflammatory conditions that may differentially affect the seminal microenvironment and sperm function. However, whether transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)‐defined MAGI phenotypes correspond to distinct biological profiles remains insufficiently characterized ...

Overexpression of ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 1 (UCHL1) in boys with cryptorchidism

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Background The ubiquitin-proteasome system regulate p53, caspase and Bcl-2 family proteins, and is crucial for the degradation of the defective germ cells in testes. Purpose: to evaluate the concentration of ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 1 (UCHL1)

Associations Between Sperm DNA Fragmentation and Lifestyle Factors

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) has been proposed as a supplementary biomarker to traditional semen parameters in the evaluation of male infertility. However, its determinants and clinical relevance remain unclear, particularly regarding modifiable lifestyle factors.
