The use of deidentified organ donor testes for research
Abstract Our knowledge of testis development and function mainly comes from research using mammalian model organisms, primarily the mouse. However, there are integral differences between men and other mammalian species regarding cellular composition and expression profiles during fetal and post‐natal testis development and in the mature testis ...

Sertoli Cell Line Lacks the Immunoprotective Properties Associated with Primary Sertoli Cells
Sertoli cells are important for maintenance of the immune privileged environment of the testis and prolong survival of cotransplanted cells. The objective of the current study was to examine the immunoprotective properties of a mouse Sertoli cell line ...

Sertoli cell only syndrome: Status of sertoli cell maturation and function
Mature and functional Sertoli cells are essential for the survival of germ cells in testes. In Sertoli cell only syndrome (SCOS), there is no germ cells. Then, question arises whether absence of germ cells in SCOS secondary to Sertoli cells immaturity or mal function. Sertoli cells maturational and functional status is unclear in SCOS.

BRD9 inhibition as potential treatment option for testicular germ cell tumors
Abstract Background Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the predominant tumor in younger males. Usually, 5‐year survival rates are quite high, but 15–20% of patients with metastatic non‐seminomas are resistant to standard cisplatin‐based therapy.

Morphological, Glycohistochemical, and Immunohistochemical Studies on the Embryonic and Adult Bovine Testis [PDF]
In the present study, the testes of 32 bovine embryos with different crown-rump length (2.5- 90 cm CRL) and of 15 sexually mature bulls (Deutsches Fleckvieh) were investigated using light- and electron microscope as well as glycohistochemical and ...

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 ...

Sperm Telomere Interactions Are Impaired in Testicular Cancer Before and After Adjuvant Therapy
ABSTRACT Background No study has yet explored telomere length or interaction in sperm nuclei of testicular cancer (TC) patients exposed to chemotherapy or radiotherapy. However, sperm telomere dynamics have emerged as a potential marker in male infertility.

ABSTRACT Background Asthenozoospermia is a significant contributing factor to male infertility. Accumulating evidence indicates that impaired sperm motility is closely linked to dysregulated microRNA expression during spermatogenesis. Seminal plasma exosomes are enriched with diverse microRNAs, which play pivotal roles in modulating sperm motility, the

ABSTRACT Background Oligoasthenozoospermia is a leading cause of male infertility and has been increasingly associated with the global surge in obesity and exposure to reproductive toxicants. Despite extensive research on each factor individually, their combined pathological effects remain poorly understood.
