Potential Function of Testicular MicroRNAs in Heat-Stress-Induced Spermatogenesis Disorders
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 Spermatogenesis is temperature-dependent, and the increase in testicular temperature seriously affects mammalian spermatogenesis and semen quality. In this study, the testicular heat stress model of mice was made with a 43 °C water bath for 25 min, and the effects of heat stress on semen quality and spermatogenesis-related regulators were analyzed.

Thermoregulatory disorders and illness related to heat and cold stress [PDF]
Autonomic Neuroscience, 2016 Thermoregulation is a vital function of the autonomic nervous system in response to cold and heat stress. Thermoregulatory physiology sustains health by keeping body core temperature within a degree or two of 37°C, which enables normal cellular function. Heat production and dissipation are dependent on a coordinated set of autonomic responses.

Pathophysiological Changes in Female Rats with Estrous Cycle Disorder Induced by Long‐Term Heat Stress [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2020 High‐temperature exposure is detrimental to women’s reproductive health; however, the impact caused by long‐term high temperature is not comprehensive, and a stable model of estrous cycle disorder induced by a high temperature is yet lacking. Herein, we aimed to establish a stable and effective model of estrous cycle disorder in female rats induced by ...

Influence of acclimatization on serum enzyme changes in soldiers during exertional heat stress [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2009 Background/Aim. Exertional heat stress is common problem in military services. The aim was to examine changes in serum concentrations of some enzymes in soldiers during exertional heat stress test (EHST) as well as the effects of 10-days passive or ...

Wuzi-Yanzong prescription alleviates spermatogenesis disorder induced by heat stress dependent on Akt, NF-κB signaling pathway [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 AbstractAkt and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathways are involved in germ cell apoptosis and inflammation after testicular heat stress (THS). We observed that after THS induced by the exposure of rat testes to 43 °C for 20 min, their weight decreased, the fraction of apoptotic testicular germ cells significantly increased, and the ...

Seminal Plasma Analysis of Oxidative Stress in Different Genitourinary Topographical Regions Involved in Reproductive Tract Disorders Associated with Genital Heat Stress [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 The pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for male subfertility/infertility caused by or complicated by genital heat stress remains unclear in many respects. Because seminal plasma creates the environment for the proper functioning of spermatozoa, in this study, we verified the associations among standard spermiograms, seminal biochemical ...
