Preclinical Toxicity Screening of Sodium Dodecanoyloxybenzenesulfonate (LOBS) as a New Alternative Biocide Using In Vitro and In Vivo Models

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sodium hypochlorite is a well‐established biocide extensively used in both living and industrial environments; however, exposure to it or improper handling can harm the human body and the environment. Thus, safer alternatives to sodium hypochlorite are required.

Identification of a novel human E-Cadherin splice variant andassessment of its effects upon EMT-related events [PDF]

, 2018
Epithelial Cadherin (E-cadherin) is involved in calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion and signal transduction. The E-cadherin decrease/loss is a hallmark of Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT), a key event in tumor progression.

Erectile and ejaculatory outcomes after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate: A comprehensive narrative review

UroPrecision, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) has emerged as a widely adopted surgical technique for the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), regardless of prostate size; however, its impact on male sexual function—particularly in terms of erectile and ejaculatory outcomes—remains a subject of ongoing debate.

By hook or by crook? Morphometry, competition and cooperation in rodent sperm [PDF]

, 2007
Background Sperm design varies enormously across species and sperm competition is thought to be a major factor influencing this variation. However, the functional significance of many sperm traits is still poorly understood.

AMHR2 mutation in persistent Müllerian duct syndrome: A case of transverse testicular ectopia

UroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Backgroud Persistent Müllerian duct syndrome (PMDS) is a rare condition characterized by the persistence of Müllerian duct structures in genotypic and phenotypic males. Case Presentation We present the case of a 4‐month‐old male with PMDS who presented with transverse testicular ectopia. The patient underwent diagnostic laparoscopic orchiopexy

Stable variable selection for right censored data: comparison of methods [PDF]

, 2011
The instability in the selection of models is a major concern with data sets containing a large number of covariates. This paper deals with variable selection methodology in the case of high-dimensional problems where the response variable can be right ...

An engineered epididymal cell line provides a sustainable source of functional extracellular vesicles for in vitro sperm preservation: A multi‐omics and functional study

VIEW, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the function of epididymal extracellular vesicles (EVs) in overcoming sperm post‐testicular modification deficiencies. Although EVs derived from the epididymis play a crucial role in intercellular communication and molecular exchange, there is limited research addressing how EVs released by in vitro cultured epididymal ...

Neuroendocrine effects of cadmium exposure on male reproductive functions

Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2020
In industrialized countries, the use of Cadmium (Cd) produces a form of anthropogenic pollution. Hence, exposure by human populations is becoming a public health problem. With a half-life of up to 40 years, cadmium is now a topic of great interest due to

Exploring the impact of microbial dysbiosis on ovarian cancer and the therapeutic potential of probiotics

VIEW, EarlyView.
Ovarian cancer has been linked to the microbiome as a potential environmental contributor, but how this association relates to tumor progression remains unclear. By comparing tumor and nontumor tissues, we identified a severity‐associated microbial and metabolic signature and showed that probiotics can partially restore immune balance and slow tumor ...
