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

Andrology, 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.

Seminal Plasma Exosomal miRNA Profiling Reveals hsa‐miR‐7‐5p as a Key Regulator of Sperm Motility in Asthenozoospermia

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Asthenozoospermia is a significant contributing factor to male infertility. Accumulating evidence indicates that impaired sperm motility is closely linked to dysregulated microRNA expression during spermatogenesis. Seminal plasma exosomes are enriched with diverse microRNAs, which play pivotal roles in modulating sperm motility, the

Cryopreservation of Spermatozoa Prior and Post‐Orchiectomy in Patients With Testicular Germ Cell Cancer—Does the Timing Matter?

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Testicular germ cell cancer (TGCC) is the most frequent malignancy in young men of reproductive age. According to guidelines, semen cryopreservation should be performed prior to orchiectomy. Lack of time and local facilities as well as mental pressure are challenges in terms of fertility preservation before surgery.

Incidence of Gonadal and Extragonadal Germ Cell Tumours in Patients With Klinefelter Syndrome

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Klinefelter's syndrome (KS; 47, XXY) is associated with an altered risk profile for malignancies compared with non‐KS males. In particular, several reports have noted a striking association between KS and extragonadal germ cell tumours (EGCTs), especially in the mediastinum, whereas the risk of testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs ...

Contact Activation Is Alleviated by Testosterone Replacement Therapy in Klinefelter Syndrome: Evidence of Hormonal and Metabolic Modulation

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Klinefelter syndrome is associated with a markedly increased risk of venous thrombosis. While hypogonadism and metabolic dysfunction are known contributors, the role of the contact activation system in Klinefelter syndrome remains unexplored.

Molecular Mechanisms of Dysregulated LH and FSH Secretion in Human Reproductive Failure

Biomedicines
Several reproductive issues in both men and women are caused by changes in the pulsatile secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH).

Novel role for anti-Müllerian hormone in the regulation of GnRH neuron excitability and hormone secretion

Nature Communications, 2016
Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) plays a role in sexual differentiation and gonadal function, but extra-gonadal effects of AMH are not known. Here Cimino et al.

Boosting Male Fertility: The Impact of Gonadotropin Therapy on Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Male hypogonadotropic hypogonadism typically presents with azoospermia and is one of the few causes of infertility amenable to a medical intervention. Gonadotropin therapy offers a chance to restore spermatogenesis and fertility in these individuals.
