Semen parameters are seriously affected in acephalic spermatozoa syndrome
Basic and Clinical Andrology, 2022 Résumé Contexte Des études antérieures ont rapporté que certains patients qui avaient des spermatozoïdes sans tête présentaient une mauvaise qualité du sperme, mais il n’y a eu aucune analyse systématique publiée sur la qualité du sperme chez les ...

Long-Term Follow Up of the Erectile Function of Testicular Cancer Survivors
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019 The diagnosis of testicular cancer (TC) can have a considerable and persistent impact on a patient's sexuality, especially given its location. The high prevalence of TC in young adults, and the good prognosis, explain the great interest in sexual ...

A novel stepwise micro-TESE approach in non obstructive azoospermia [PDF]
, 2016 Background: The purpose of the study was to investigate whether micro-TESE can improve sperm retrieval rate (SRR) compared to conventional single TESE biopsy on the same testicle or to contralateral multiple TESE, by employing a novel stepwise micro ...

Sperm Viability Matters in Insect Sperm Competition [PDF]
Current Biology, 2005 Experimental studies in insects have shown how sperm competition can be a potent selective force acting on an array of male reproductive traits . However, the role of sperm quality in determining paternity in insects has been neglected, despite the fact that sperm quality has been shown to influence the outcome of sperm competition in vertebrates .

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Evidence of the presence of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV in human sperm and its involvement in motility regulation [PDF]
, 2005 The mechanisms involved in the regulation of mammalian sperm motility are not well understood. Calcium ions (Ca(2+)) have been suggested to play a key role in the maintenance of motility; nevertheless, how Ca(2+) modulates this process has not yet been ...

Egg donors’ attitudes toward identifiability, offspring information, and genetic testing
Reproductive Biology and EndocrinologyBackground Research on egg donors’ perspectives regarding identifiability, donor-conceived offspring, and genetic testing remains limited, as most studies have focused on sperm donors.
