Paternal ischemic heart disease and chance of successful pregnancy outcomes
Abstract Background Only approximately 30% of conceptions result in live births. Historically, research has predominantly focused on maternal factors impacting pregnancy success, despite the cause remaining unidentified in most cases. The influence of paternal factors on a couple's likelihood of achieving a successful pregnancy is still not well ...

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 ...

Isodicentric Y Chromosomes and Sex Disorders as Byproducts of Homologous Recombination that Maintains Palindromes [PDF]
Massive palindromes in the human Y chromosome harbor mirror-image gene pairs essential for spermatogenesis. During evolution, these gene pairs have been maintained by intrapalindrome, arm-to-arm recombination.

Adverse impact of acute Toxoplasma gondii infection on human spermatozoa
Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites injected intraperitoneally crossed the blood‐testes barrier, appearing in testes/epididymis by day 6 post‐infection. In vitro exposure caused increased sperm necrosis/apoptosis and structural damage to heads/tails. Immunofluorescence and SEM revealed tachyzoites attaching to sperm tails, inducing twisting/detachment, and ...

How exome sequencing improves the diagnostics and management of men with non‐syndromic infertility
Abstract Male infertility affects approximately 17% of all men and represents a complex disorder in which not only semen parameters such as sperm motility, morphology, and number of sperm are highly variable, but also testicular phenotypes range from normal spermatogenesis to complete absence of germ cells.
