Deciphering Direct and Indirect Effects of Neurokinin B and GnRH in the Brain-Pituitary Axis of Tilapia

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
Neurokinin B (NKB) and its cognate receptor (NK3R) are emerging as important components of the neuroendocrine regulation of reproduction. Unlike mammalian tac3, which encodes only one mature peptide (namely NKB), two mature peptides are predicted for ...

Impact of age at first visit on glycolipid metabolism, bone metabolism, and fertility potential in patients with Klinefelter syndrome

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Classic Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is characterized by one extra X chromosome (47, XXY), leading to hypergonadotropic hypogonadism and higher risk of alterations in glycolipid homeostasis, cardiovascular diseases, and low bone mineral density. Most frequently, KS is diagnosed in adulthood because of infertility.

Normozoospermic men in infertile couples: Potential benefit of early medical diagnostic procedures

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Infertility, defined as the inability to achieve pregnancy despite regular, unprotected sexual intercourse for 1 year, affects approximately 15% of couples. Male factors contribute to 50% of these cases. The necessity of andrological evaluations for male partners of infertile couples with normozoospermia is currently under ...

Fetal exposure to a mixture of endocrine‐disrupting chemicals and biomarkers of male fecundity: A population‐based cohort study

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fetal exposure to endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs) has been associated with reduced male fecundity, but with few studies considering chemical mixtures. Objectives We assessed the association between fetal exposure to a mixture of EDCs and biomarkers of male fecundity in young adulthood.

Semen quality in patients with testicular cancer is associated with age and with greatly elevated levels of beta human chorionic gonadotropin

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Poor semen quality is a well‐known feature in patients with testicular germ cell tumours (GCTs) at the time of diagnosis but the underlying biological reasons are incompletely understood. Objectives This study aimed to identify GCT‐specific clinical factors that are involved with poor semen quality in GCT patients.

Gonadal function in males with WFS1 spectrum disorder (Wolfram syndrome)—A European cohort perspective

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background WFS1 spectrum disorder, also known as Wolfram syndrome (WS) is an ultra‐rare (<1:500,000; ORPHA: 3463) monogenic (OMIM #222300) progressive neuroendocrine and neurodegenerative disorder, characterised by early‐onset insulin‐dependent diabetes, optic atrophy, central diabetes insipidus and sensi‐neuronal deafness.

Characterization of the somatostatin system in tilapia: implications for growth and reproduction

Frontiers in Endocrinology
Somatostatin (SST) plays diverse physiological roles in vertebrates, particularly in regulating growth hormone secretion from the pituitary. While the function of SST as a neuromodulator has been studied extensively, its role in fish and mammalian ...

Penile vascular status in young men living with HIV experiencing erectile dysfunction: A comparative cross‐sectional pilot study

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Erectile dysfunction in people living with HIV is a multifactorial disease, but the role of penile vascular status assessed by dynamic penile color Doppler echography is underexplored. Objectives This study assessed penile vascular status in young males living with HIV experiencing erectile dysfunction, comparing them to HIV ...

Season of birth and variations in male reproductive health: A population‐based cohort study

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Season of birth has been associated with various later reproductive health outcomes in women, but little is known on the potential associations in men. Objectives To investigate the association between season of birth and semen characteristics, testes volume and reproductive hormone levels in young men.
