Kisspeptin as a test of hypothalamic dysfunction in pubertal and reproductive disorders

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract The hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis is regulated by the gonadotropin‐releasing hormone pulse generator in the hypothalamus. This is comprised of neurons that secrete kisspeptin in a pulsatile manner to stimulate the release of GnRH, and, in turn, downstream gonadotropins from the pituitary gland, and subsequently sex steroids and ...

Luteinizing hormone receptor knockout mouse: What has it taught us?

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Luteinizing hormone (LH), along with its agonist choriongonadotropin (hCG) in humans, is the key hormone responsible for the tropic regulation of the gonadal function. LH and hCG act through their cognate receptor, the luteinizing hormone/choriongonadotropin receptor (LHCGR; more appropriately LHR in rodents lacking CG), located in the testis ...

Advances in human In vitro spermatogenesis: A review

Molecular Aspects of Medicine
Recent advances surrounding in vitro spermatogenesis (IVS) have shown potential in creating a new paradigm of regenerative medicine in the future of fertility treatments for males experiencing non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA). Male infertility is a common condition affecting approximately 15% of couples, with azoospermia being present in 15% of ...

The use of deidentified organ donor testes for research

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Our knowledge of testis development and function mainly comes from research using mammalian model organisms, primarily the mouse. However, there are integral differences between men and other mammalian species regarding cellular composition and expression profiles during fetal and post‐natal testis development and in the mature testis ...

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

Andrology, 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.

In vitro Spermatogenesis of Gypsy Moth Larvae

The American Biology Teacher, 1994
This laboratory activity is designed to offer students an opportunity to establish simple cell developmental cultures in order to observe the process of spermatogenesis, mitosis and meiosis in living cells. Insect cultures grow at room temperature and do not require a special incubator or complex growth media.

BRD9 inhibition as potential treatment option for testicular germ cell tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the predominant tumor in younger males. Usually, 5‐year survival rates are quite high, but 15–20% of patients with metastatic non‐seminomas are resistant to standard cisplatin‐based therapy.

Biology and manipulation technologies of male germline stem cells in mammals

Reproductive Medicine and Biology, 2018
Background Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are the origin of sperm and defined by their functions of “colonization in the testis” and “spermatogenesis”.

Pharmacogenetics of follicle‐stimulating hormone action in the male

Andrology, 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.
