Norepinephrine Induces Sertoli Cell Ferroptosis via Receptors Desensitization Causing Stress‐Related Male Reproductive Dysfunction

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 48, December 29, 2025.
Psychological stress activates the sympathetic–adrenal axis, elevating norepinephrine (NE) and suppressing reproductive hormones, thereby impairing male reproduction. Excess NE overactivates and desensitizes β‐adrenergic receptors (β‐ARs), triggering Sertoli cell ferroptosis and disrupting spermatogenesis.

BLOC1S1 Attenuates B. Melitensis 16M LPS‐Triggered Autophagy by Spatial Confinement of TDP‐43

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 45, December 4, 2025.
This study explores how B. melitensis 16M LPS and BLOC1S1 regulate autophagy in goat spermatogonial stem cells. The 16M LPS is activating AMPK‐dependent autophagy, increasing LC3B‐II/I ratios and lysosomal genes, while Escherichia coli LPS shows no effect.
