A Study on Causes of Azoospermia in Urology Clinic of Yasuj University of Medical Sciences

Armaghane Danesh Bimonthly Journal, 2006
: Introduction & Objective: Azoospermia means no sperm in semen. It may be due to hormonal imbalance, any disorder in production of sperm, or might be due to obstruction in sperm pathway from testis till ejaculatory ducts.

Iron and Other Metal Ions in Human Health and Disease

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
Iron, copper, zinc, and calcium orchestrate cellular function through distinct yet cooperative mechanisms: redox‐active iron and copper cycle between oxidation states to act as Fenton catalysts and electron carriers in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS); redox‐inert zinc serves as a structural component of zinc‐finger proteins and a catalytic cofactor ...

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

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 7, Page 2166-2179, October 2026.
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

Peroxiredoxin 4 Involved in Spermatogenesis by Affecting Oxidative Stress and Ferroptosis

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 7, Page 2329-2346, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The main functions of testes are sperm production and androgen secretion in testicular befitting microenvironment. Excessive level of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) from metabolism and cellular events can lead to oxidative stress (OS) and ferroptosis, which injure the functions of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of ...

Chromodomain Helicase DNA–Binding Proteins and Spermatogenesis: Current Advances

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 7, Page 1962-1970, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Male infertility is a prevalent clinical condition, with approximately one‐third of cases classified as idiopathic, frequently stemming from impaired spermatogenesis because of dysregulated gene expression. Chromodomain helicase DNA‐binding (CHD) proteins are central chromatin remodelers that orchestrate this epigenetic regulation ...

Reproductive outcomes, including neonatal data, following sperm injection in men with obstructive and nonobstructive azoospermia: case series and systematic review

Clinics, 2013
We compared pregnancy outcomes following intracytoplasmic sperm injection for the treatment of male infertility according to the type of azoospermia. First, we analyzed our data from 370 couples who underwent intracytoplasmic sperm injection using sperm ...

Is there a role for varicocelectomy after microdissection testicular sperm extraction? Case report and literature review

Urology Case Reports, 2019
Men with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) are candidates for microdissection testicular sperm extraction (microTESE). In men with NOA and varicocele, varicocelectomy has been associated with the appearance of sperm in the ejaculate.

Testicular Biopsies in Adolescent and Adult Andrological Patients: The EAA Clinical Guidelines

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 7, Page 1906-1928, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Histological evaluation of testicular tissue is central to the assessment of infertile men, particularly those at an increased risk of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT). Traditionally, testicular biopsies have been used primarily for diagnostic purposes, such as the detection of germ cell neoplasia in situ (GCNIS). With advances in
