Oral Engineered Extracellular Vesicles Based on Ion Exchange Strategy for Multipronged Management of Wilson's Disease Complicated with Reproductive Dysfunction Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reports for the first time an oral targeted nanomedicine that conducts ion exchange through engineered Ganoderma‐derived extracellular vesicle, managing both the in‐copper and ex‐copper in a multi‐pronged approach, offering a promising therapeutic strategy for addressing WD with reproductive dysfunction.

Fertility outcome of patients with testicular tumor: before and after treatment

Asian Journal of Andrology, 2014
Testicular cancer (TC) is the most curable type of cancer, with a survival rate of more than 95%. Oncologists are faced with the challenge that gonadotoxic cancer treatments can compromise future fertility, either temporarily or permanently.

Effects of coenzyme Q10 on ovarian surface epithelium-derived ovarian stem cells and ovarian function in a 4-vinylcyclohexene diepoxide-induced murine model of ovarian failure

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2021
Background Several studies have shown that coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) can rescue ovarian aging and that ovarian surface epithelium (OSE)-derived ovarian stem cells (OSCs) are useful for treating infertility due to ovarian aging.

A Novel Cultivation System for Germ Cell Proliferation and Sustaining Whole Testicular Niche

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A hydrogel microneedle‐based system enables whole testicular cultivation, supporting spermatogonial proliferation and enhancing spermatogenesis in vitro. This ‘whole testicular spermatogonia pool’ (WTSP) significantly increases spermatid production and fertility potential in mice. This system also promotes spermatogonial expansion in human fetal testes,

Hepatic ENTPD5 Is Critical for Maintaining Metabolic Homeostasis and Promoting Brown Adipose Tissue Thermogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ENTPD5‐mediated conversion of extracellular adenosine triphosphate to ADP of hepatocytes is critical for maintaining hepatic glucose/lipid metabolism and promoting brown adipose tissue thermogenesis via the inhibition of adrenomedullin expression and secretion.

Toward a Species Search Engine: KISSE Offers a Rigorous Statistical Framework for Bone Collagen Tandem Mass Spectrometry Data

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The Species Search Engine (KISSE) is a novel statistical approach for identifying species from collagen peptides, using a curated library of sequences and their relative abundances derived from shotgun proteomics. Abstract DNA and bone collagen are two key sources of resilient molecular markers used to identify species from their remains.

Effect of metabolic and antioxidant supplementation on sperm parameters in oligo-astheno-teratozoospermia, with and without varicocele: a double-blind placebo-controlled study [PDF]

, 2018
Since sperm require high energy levels to perform their specialised function, it is vital that essential nutrients are available for spermatozoa when they develop, capacitate and acquire motility.
