Effect of human menopausal gonadotropin on testicular morphometry, gonadal and extragonadal sperm reserves of rabbit bucks

World Rabbit Science, 2015
Testicular morphometry, gonadal and extragonadal sperm reserves of rabbit bucks treated with Human Menopausal Gonadotrophin (Menogon®) were studied. Twenty-four crossbred rabbit bucks weighing 1.3-1.6 kg at 15-17 wk were randomised into 4 treatment doses

Assessing a Model for a Complex Systemic Disorder—The Value of Male Mice With a Supernumerary X Chromosome for Klinefelter Syndrome Research

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Direct experimental investigation of Klinefelter syndrome (KS) in patients is limited because the syndrome manifests heterogeneously and affects multiple organ systems. Studying KS therefore requires a model that captures this complexity as accurately as possible while still permitting controlled experimental manipulation ...

Effect of freezing on the ram sperm morphometric parameters [PDF]

SPERMOVA, 2017
The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of freezing on the morphometric parameters of ram spermatozoa. For this purpose, the semen of 2 young rams of the Corriedale breed of 2 and 2.5 years old was used, with a body condition of 3.5.

Diacerein Disrupts Testicular Homeostasis: The Essential Role of Basal Cytokines in Maintaining Sertoli Cell Integrity and the Immune Microenvironment

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pro‐inflammatory cytokines, TNF and IL‐1B, are essential for testicular homeostasis. Diacerein, an anti‐inflammatory drug, inhibits these cytokines, impairing M2 macrophages and Leydig cells (LCs). However, its impact on Sertoli cells (SCs) and M1 (CD68) macrophages remains unknown.

Hydrodynamic propulsion of human sperm [PDF]

, 2009
The detailed fluid mechanics of sperm propulsion are fundamental to our understanding of reproduction. In this paper, we aim to model a human sperm swimming in a microscope slide chamber.

Seminal Biomarkers and Sperm Proteomic Signatures Differentiate Acute and Chronic Male Accessory Gland Inflammation

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Male accessory gland inflammation (MAGI) comprises a heterogeneous group of inflammatory conditions that may differentially affect the seminal microenvironment and sperm function. However, whether transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)‐defined MAGI phenotypes correspond to distinct biological profiles remains insufficiently characterized ...

The effect of the staining technique on morphological and morphometric parameters of boar sperm.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Sperm morphology and morphometry are important parameters in predicting fertility. Sperm are considered to be normal if the shape and size of the head, midpiece and tail fall within the classification for a given species.

Sperm Morphology in Neotropical Primates

Animals, 2019
The morphological and morphometric characterization of spermatozoa has been used as a taxonomic and phylogenetic tool for different species of mammals. We evaluated and compared the sperm morphometry of five neotropical primate species: Alouatta caraya ...

Spermatogenic Activity and Sperm Traits in Post-Pubertal and Adult Tomcats (Felis catus): Implication of Intra-Male Variation in Sperm Size

Cells, 2021
Tomcats are considered to be adults at 1 year of age, although many reach sexual maturity at an earlier age. Nevertheless, we still know little about whether the spermatogenic activity and sperm quality of mature under one-year-old tomcats differ from ...

The Impact of Common Medications on Male Fertility: An Updated Systematic Review

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Compared with those of cytotoxic treatments, the potential effects of common medications on the fertility of men trying to conceive currently or planning to conceive in the future are less well described. The use of common medications may modify the gonadotropic axis, spermatogenesis, and epididymal maturation or alter male ...
