Leucospermia and Male Fertility [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Andrology, 1980
The evaluation of smears of normozoospermic men showed a clear leucospermia in 15% of the patients. There was a slight motility inhibition of the spermatozoa and head-to-head agglutination in the direct surroundings of the leucocytes. Phagocytosis of sperm heads by granulocytes was also evident.

Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals the local cell landscape in mouse epididymal initial segment during aging

open access: yesImmunity & Ageing, 2023
Background Morphological and functional alterations in aging reproductive organs result in decreased male fertility. The epididymis functions as the transition region for post-testicular sperm maturation.

Expression of a catalytically inactive mutant form of glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4) confers a dominant-negative effect in male fertility. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The selenoenzyme Gpx4 is essential for early embryogenesis and cell viability for its unique function to prevent phospholipid oxidation. Recently, the cytosolic form of Gpx4 was identified as an upstream regulator of a novel form of non-apoptotic cell ...

Pesticides and Male Fertility: A Dangerous Crosstalk

open access: yesMetabolites, 2021
In recent decades, an increasing incidence of male infertility has been reported. Interestingly, and considering that pesticides have been used for a long time, the high incidence of this pathological state is concomitant with the increasing use of these

Smoke, alcohol and drug addiction and male fertility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In recent decades, the decline in human fertility has become increasingly more worrying: while therapeutic interventions might help, they are vexing for the couple and often burdened with high failure rates and costs.

Treatment progress of cryptozoospermia with Western Medicine and traditional Chinese medicine: A literature review

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, 2023
Background and Aims Cryptozoospermia is an extreme oligozoospermia with an unsatisfactory treatment effect, with an incidence rate of approximately 8.73% in male infertility, whose effective solution has become the call of the times. Western Medicine has

The impact of mitochondrial impairments on sperm function and male fertility: a systematic review

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology
Besides adenine triphosphate (ATP) production for sustaining motility, the mitochondria of sperm also host other critical cellular functions during germ cell development and fertilization including calcium homeostasis, generation of reactive oxygen ...

Lipid Metabolism: Critical Roles in Male Fertility and Other Aspects of Reproductive Development in Plants.

open access: yesMolecular Plant, 2020
Fatty acids and their derivatives are essential building blocks for anther cuticle and pollen wall formation. Disruption of lipid metabolism in anther and pollen development often leads to genic male sterility (GMS).

Thyroxin Is Useful to Improve Sperm Motility [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Fertility and Sterility, 2016
Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the non-genomic action of thyroxin on sperm kinetic and its probable use to improve sperm recovery after applying an en- richment method like “swim-up” in comparison with the available one, pentoxifylline.
