Folding, misfolding, and regulation of intracellular traffic of G protein‐coupled receptors involved in the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background G protein‐coupled receptors are a large and functionally diverse family of membrane receptors involved in a number of biological processes. Like other proteins, G protein‐coupled receptors need to be properly folded in order to traffic to the plasma membrane and interact with agonist.

Effects of glucagon‐like peptide 1 receptor agonists on testicular dysfunction: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hypogonadism and infertility are two conditions that are heavily affected by overweight and obesity in the male patient. Glucagon‐like peptide 1 agonists (GLP‐1RAs) are a recently introduced class of antidiabetic drugs with powerful weight‐loss effect; this may induce an indirect positive effect on the testicular function ...

Semen quality in patients with testicular cancer is associated with age and with greatly elevated levels of beta human chorionic gonadotropin

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Poor semen quality is a well‐known feature in patients with testicular germ cell tumours (GCTs) at the time of diagnosis but the underlying biological reasons are incompletely understood. Objectives This study aimed to identify GCT‐specific clinical factors that are involved with poor semen quality in GCT patients.

The role and implication of platelet‐rich plasma in male factor infertility: A systematic review of human studies

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cryopreservation causes sperm injury and the success of surgical sperm retrieval (SSR) for azoospermic men is just over half depending on the cause of azoospermia. The role of autologous platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) in male factor infertility (MFI) is unclear. Objective To conduct a systematic review of the role of PRP in MFI focusing

Identification of MEF2A, MEF2C, and MEF2D interactomes in basal and Fsk‐stimulated mouse MA‐10 Leydig cells

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Myocyte enhancer factor 2 transcription factors regulate essential transcriptional programs in various cell types. The activity of myocyte enhancer factor 2 factors is modulated through interactions with cofactors, chromatin remodelers, and other regulatory proteins, which are dependent on cell context and physiological state.

Season of birth and variations in male reproductive health: A population‐based cohort study

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Season of birth has been associated with various later reproductive health outcomes in women, but little is known on the potential associations in men. Objectives To investigate the association between season of birth and semen characteristics, testes volume and reproductive hormone levels in young men.

Pharmacogenetics of follicle‐stimulating hormone action in the male

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Male factor infertility (MFI) is involved in half of the cases of couple infertility. The follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH) therapy is considered efficient to improve semen parameters and pregnancy rate in patients with idiopathic MFI, following the lesson learned from hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.
