Protective Effects of Fenugreek and Stevia Extracts on Dexamethasone‐Induced Testicular Damage in a Rat Model

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Fenugreek and stevia extracts protect against dexamethasone‐induced testicular damage in male rats by enhancing antioxidant defenses, improving sperm quality, and restoring hormonal balance, highlighting their potential as natural therapeutics for preventing corticosteroid‐induced reproductive toxicity.

The efficiency of conventional microscopic selection is comparable to the hyaluronic acid binding method in selecting spermatozoa for male infertility patients

open access: yesTaiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2015
Objective: To evaluate if hyaluronic acid (HA)-bound spermatozoa surpassed conventional microscopy-selected spermatozoa in the status of sperm DNA integrity by acridine orange (AO) fluorescence staining.

Redox‐Associated Renal and Male Reproductive Alterations Following Dexamethasone Exposure in Male Rats: Histopathological and Spermatological Evaluations

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dexamethasone (DEX) is widely used in clinical practice, although it may also cause oxidative stress–related damage in different tissues, including the kidney and male reproductive system. This study investigated DEX‐induced renal and reproductive injury in rats and evaluated the modulatory effect of reduced glutathione on DEX‐associated redox

Potential Neuroendocrine Disruption by Benzodiazepines and Its Impact on Male Fertility

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuroactive substances have emerged as potent endocrine disruptors affecting male reproductive health through central and peripheral mechanisms. Among these, benzodiazepines, which are widely used for the management of anxiety, insomnia, epilepsy, and neuromuscular disorders, are known as GABA A (gamma‐aminobutyric acid type A) receptor ...

A review of sperm cryopreservation in the domestic dog and cat—part II, freezing epididymal spermatozoa, why is it different from ejaculated spermatozoa?

open access: yesActa Veterinaria Scandinavica
If a male dies suddenly or requires castration, it may still be possible to produce offspring through artificial insemination (AI) by cryopreserving spermatozoa retrieved from the epididymis.

Low‐Level Human Epididymis Protein 4 in Seminal Plasma Is an Independent Risk Factor for Poor Semen Liquefaction: A Case Control Study

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Our work identifies a novel and significant association between low seminal levels of Human Epididymis Protein 4 (HE4) and the clinical condition of poor semen liquefaction, a common cause of male infertility. The findings are statistically robust, clinically relevant, and provide a foundational basis for future research into the mechanism by which HE4

Adaptive Immunity in Marsupials

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
Comparison of the marsupial and eutherian adaptive immune systems. ABSTRACT Marsupials diverged from eutherian mammals 125–160 million years ago. Although evolutionarily distinct, both groups of mammals can produce complex adaptive immune responses to antigens with several key differences.

Navigating the Complexity: A Comprehensive Review of GSK‐3 Inhibition in Regenerative Medicine

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glycogen synthase kinase‐3 (GSK‐3) is a central regulator of numerous cellular signaling pathways, with critical roles in metabolism, proliferation, differentiation, and tissue regeneration. This review explores the multifaceted effects of pharmacological GSK‐3 inhibition across multiple body districts, focusing on its highly context‐dependent

Optimal irradiation parameters for the development of the sterile insect technique in the seedcorn maggot Delia platura (Diptera: Anthomyiidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
X‐ray irradiation of Delia platura pupae showed that 20 Gy induces high sterility while maintaining male quality and competitiveness, establishing optimal parameters for sterile insect technique implementation in North America. Abstract BACKGROUND The seedcorn maggot, Delia platura Meigen (Diptera: Anthomyiidae), is a sporadic but economically ...
