Pharmacogenetics of follicle‐stimulating hormone action in the male

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Male factor infertility (MFI) is involved in half of the cases of couple infertility. The follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH) therapy is considered efficient to improve semen parameters and pregnancy rate in patients with idiopathic MFI, following the lesson learned from hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

Vitamin D levels and biomarkers of male fecundity: A study from the Danish National Birth Cohort

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Vitamin D is metabolised throughout the male reproductive system, suggesting a direct regulatory role of vitamin D in male reproduction. Objectives To investigate the association between plasma vitamin D levels at sperm ejaculation and during spermatogenesis and biomarkers of male fecundity in young men.

Modified cytoskeletal and extracellular matrix composition in the canine testis after long‐acting gonadotropin‐releasing hormone agonist deslorelin treatment

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Long‐acting gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists are commonly used for fertility control in male dogs. Their effect on testicular histomorphology has not been clarified. Objectives To elucidate the mechanisms underlying androgen withdrawal in response to long‐acting GnRH agonist deslorelin 4.7 mg treatment on testicular ...

Effects of neonatal hypothyroidism on testicular development and undifferentiated spermatogonia in prepubertal rats

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Thyroid hormones play a key role in testicular development, particularly in the regulation of Sertoli cell proliferation and differentiation. While congenital hypothyroidism is common and treatable, the effects of thyroid hormone insufficiency on early testicular development during the neonatal period remain unclear. Objectives This

Pituitary transcriptome analysis of mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi) reveals dietary 17α-methyltestosterone disturbs hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis by FSH signaling pathway

Aquaculture Reports
17α-methyltestosterone (MT), as a synthetic androgen, has been widely used in medicine and aquaculture industry. However, the related molecular regulating mechanism of MT effects on hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis has not been well addressed.

Lycium barbarum polysaccharides enhance testicular spermatogenesis in d‐galactose‐induced aging rats via calcium signaling

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) has long been recognized as having a wide range of beneficial properties for improving proliferation. However, the protective effects and specific mechanisms of d‐galactose‐induced testicular dysfunction in reproductively senescent rats are not fully understood.
