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

CAG repeats polymorphism of androgen receptor gene, Kennedy’s disease and male infertility
Genetic factors are a common cause of severe pathozoospermia and male infertility. An increase in the length of trinucleotide repeats causes a number of progressive neurodegenerative diseases, including spinal bulbar muscular atrophy — Kennedy syndrome ...

The role of iron in normal and impaired testicular function
Abstract Iron plays a critical role in testicular physiology, impacting spermatogenesis, testosterone production, and overall testicular function. Iron homeostasis is maintained through systemic and cellular regulatory mechanisms, including hepcidin‐mediated systemic iron control and the iron‐responsive element/iron regulatory protein (IRE/IRP) system ...

Genetic causes of nonsyndromic forms of azoospermia and severe oligozoospermia in infertility men
Spermatogenesis is a complex biological process of male germ cells differentiation and maturation involving more than 2300 genes in the human. Until recently, only a small part of them was investigated in severe pathozoospermia and male infertility ...

Sperm Telomere Interactions Are Impaired in Testicular Cancer Before and After Adjuvant Therapy
ABSTRACT Background No study has yet explored telomere length or interaction in sperm nuclei of testicular cancer (TC) patients exposed to chemotherapy or radiotherapy. However, sperm telomere dynamics have emerged as a potential marker in male infertility.

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
