T Cell Microenvironmental Impacts and Therapeutic Opportunities: Application to Human Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the leading malignancy in adolescent and young adult males, yet the immunological and cellular mechanisms governing their tumor microenvironment (TME) remain poorly understood. Here, we present a comprehensive review of TGCT pathobiology with a focus on the immune landscape, particularly the role of tumor‐

Identification of a Specific Sertoli Cell Marker, Sox9, for Use in Transplantation

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2002
The immunoprivileged environment of the testes was first described in the 1930s, and the Sertoli cell was later identified as the main cell type responsible for this phenomenon. Recent work has examined the possibility of recreating this immunoprivileged

Testicular SIRT1 Loss Reveals an Aging‐Like Proteomic Landscape and Precipitates Reproductive Deterioration

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Advanced paternal age is associated with reduced male fertility and testicular dysfunction. Among the molecular regulators involved in aging, SIRT1, a NAD+‐dependent deacetylase, plays a pivotal role in maintaining oxidative balance and cellular homeostasis.

The role of conexin 43 in murine sertoli cell development

open access: yes, 2010
Sertoli cells are the only somatic cell type present within the seminiferous tubules of the testis. The support of these somatic cells is essential for testis formation and spermatogenesis.

Peroxiredoxin 4 Involved in Spermatogenesis by Affecting Oxidative Stress and Ferroptosis

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The main functions of testes are sperm production and androgen secretion in testicular befitting microenvironment. Excessive level of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) from metabolism and cellular events can lead to oxidative stress (OS) and ferroptosis, which injure the functions of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of ...

Testis‐Enriched F‐Box Protein FBXO39 Is Important for Spermiogenesis and Male Fertility in Mice

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The SCF (Skp–Cullin–F‐box) complex is a major class of E3 ubiquitin ligases. F‐box proteins constitute the SCF complex and play a critical role in recognizing substrates for ubiquitination. In mice, several F‐box proteins, including FBXO36 and FBXO39, are predominantly expressed in testes.

The impact of Connexin 43 deficiency on the cell shape and cytoskeleton of murine Sertoli cells: A house with ramshackle walls?

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Genetically induced loss of the gap-junction protein Connexin 43 (Cx43) in murine Sertoli cells leads to an arrest of spermatogenesis at the level of spermatogonia, highly vacuolated tubules, and intratubular cell clusters.

Boosting Male Fertility: The Impact of Gonadotropin Therapy on Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Male hypogonadotropic hypogonadism typically presents with azoospermia and is one of the few causes of infertility amenable to a medical intervention. Gonadotropin therapy offers a chance to restore spermatogenesis and fertility in these individuals.
