Case Series of Nizon‐Isidor Syndrome by Heterozygous Variants in MED12L With Further Evidence of Mitotic Instability in One Case With Diploid–Triploid Mosaicism

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nizon‐Isidor syndrome is a rare disorder caused by heterozygous variants in MED12L, with only eight documented cases in the literature. Here, we present three additional cases of this syndrome. Proband 1 was a 7‐year‐old female who presented with developmental delay, right‐leg hemihypertrophy, laryngeal cleft, esotropia, abnormal skin ...

A Confirmatory Case of Severe Spondylocostal Dysostosis Caused by Biallelic Loss‐of‐Function of DMRT2

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spondylocostal dysostosis (SCDO) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormal development of the axial skeleton, resulting in malformations of the vertebrae and ribs that often impair lung development and lead to significant respiratory morbidity.

Bee‐Derived Antioxidants as a Protective Strategy Against Doxorubicin‐Induced Ovarian Damage

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
Graphical abstract of Bee‐Derived Antioxidants as a Protective Strategy Against Doxorubicin‐Induced Ovarian Damage ABSTRACT Antineoplastic agents can induce tissue damage through oxidative stress mechanisms. Doxorubicin, a widely used chemotherapeutic agent, has been shown to cause permanent damage to reproductive tissues.

TRiC Is a Structural Component of Mammalian Sperm Axonemes

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The TRiC chaperonin is responsible for folding ~5%–10% of the proteome in eukaryotic cells. Our recent cryo‐electron microscopy studies of axonemes from diverse mammalian cell types led to the surprising discovery that a fully assembled TRiC chaperonin is a structural component of mammalian sperm flagella, where it is tethered to the radial ...

The lottery of spermatogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
AbstractThe causes of male infertility are yet to be fully understood. Here, we propose that male infertility can be partly attributed to the insufficiency of cytoplasmically-inherited proteins in sperms. Using a simple stochastic model of spermatogenesis, we show that in a range of parameters, the proportion of viable sperms can be reduced simply due ...

Modulating Lysine Crotonylation in Ulcerative Colitis Maintains Mitochondrial Homeostasis

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
NaCr promotes KCr to impede the inflammatory progression of ulcerative colitis. KCr induces mitophagy by activating the PINK1/PARKIN pathway to restrict NLRP3 inflammasome activation, thereby decreasing the production and release of various inflammatory cytokines, such as IL‐1β and TNF‐α. KCr induces mitophagy and inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome activation

In vitro spermatogenesis: A century‐long research journey, still half way around

open access: yesReproductive Medicine and Biology, 2018
Background Spermatogenesis is one of the most complicated cellular differentiation processes in a body. Researchers struggled to find and develop a micro‐environmental condition that can support the process in vitro.

Identification and Characterization of Xlr5c as a Novel Nuclear Localization Protein in Mouse Germ Cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Spermatogenesis is the complex process by which diploid stem cells generate haploid germ cells in gamete production. Members of the Xlr (X-chromosome linked, lymphocyte regulated) superfamily play essential roles in spermatogenesis.

Impact of Endocrine‐Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) Used in the Food Industry on Endocrine Abnormalities

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
This review was conducted to examine the relationship between hormone disruption and other endocrine abnormalities in the context of the constant consumption of genetically modified foods and overexposure to chemicals used directly and indirectly in the agrifood industry.

The role of Musashi protein in spermatogenesis and male infertility

open access: yesFiyz̤, 2019
Background: Inactivation of transcription occurs during two phases of spermatogenesis. First, in spermatocytes entering the primary meiosis and the second in round and elongating spermatids.
