Assessing sperm DNA fragmentation post-cryopreservation in infertility cases [PDF]
Background/Aim: Sperm cryopreservation is an important practice utilised in many assisted reproductive techniques. The potential biological effects of cryopreservation on sperm DNA damage in infertile males need to be better understood for therapeutic ...

Using Sperm Posthumously: National Guidelines Versus Practice
Under pressure from involved families and time limitations, Israeli judges tend to authorize postmortem sperm retrieval and freezing, even in unmarried men and in contradiction to current, albeit non-legally binding, guidelines of the Attorney General ...

The effect of two pre-cryopreservation single layer colloidal centrifugation protocols in combination with different freezing extenders on the fragmentation dynamics of thawed equine sperm DNA [PDF]
Variability among stallions in terms of semen cryopreservation quality renders it difficult to arrive at a standardized cryopreservation method. Different extenders and processing techniques (such us colloidal centrifugation) are used in order to ...

Effects of thyroxine (T) and nano‐melatonin (NM) supplementation on cryopreserved Simmental bull semen were evaluated. The combination of thyroxine (0.5 µg/dL) and nano‐melatonin (30 µg/dL) significantly improved post‐thaw sperm motility, membrane integrity, antioxidant status, and fertility while reducing oxidative stress and apoptosis. These findings

Current status of sperm cryopreservation in biomedical research fish models: Zebrafish, medaka, and Xiphophorus [PDF]
Aquarium fishes are becoming increasingly important because of their value in biomedical research and the ornamental fish trade, and because many have become threatened or endangered in the wild.

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 ...

Cryoprotectant effects of mangiferin on the quality of frozen-thawed boar sperm
Boar sperm is particularly vulnerable to damage at low temperatures, leading to reduced efficiency in cryopreservation. This study aimed to analyze the effect of mangiferin (Man) on boar sperm cryopreservation efficiency. Various concentrations of Man (0,

Impact of Reactive Temperament on Bull Fertility in Natural Service
ABSTRACT The study aimed to evaluate the influence of temperament on semen quality and fertility in Nelore bulls. Two groups were selected based on ethological analysis, consisting of animals with either calm temperament (CA, n = 8) or reactive temperament (RE, n = 8).

Genome‐Wide Characterization of Heterozygosity‐Rich Regions in Kazakh Native Sheep Breeds
ABSTRACT Heterozygosity‐rich regions (HRR) are genomic segments characterized by high heterozygosity that may arise from admixture, introgression, or balancing selection and may harbor loci associated with adaptation and fitness‐related traits. This study aimed to characterize HRR patterns in five Kazakh sheep breeds using a publicly available ...
