The Role of Long Noncoding RNAs on Male Infertility: A Systematic Review and In Silico Analysis
Biology, 2022 Male infertility is a complex disorder affecting many couples worldwide. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate important cellular processes; however, a comprehensive understanding of their role in male infertility is limited.

Assisted Oocyte Activation following Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection: A Sensible Option for Infertile Couples with Severe Teratozoospermia [PDF]
International Journal of Fertility and Sterility, 2023 The intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) has significantly improved male factor infertility treatment; however, complete fertilization failure still occurs in 1-5% of ICSI treatment cycles mainly due to oocyte activation failure.

Aneuploidy in spermatozoa of infertile men with teratozoospermia [PDF]
International Journal of Andrology, 2001 Recent studies have shown that aneuploidy in spermatozoa of infertile men with poor semen quality is increased. The purpose of this study was to determine whether poor sperm morphology is associated with the incidence of spermatozoa with numerical chromosome abnormalities.

ACTN4 Mediates SEPT14 Mutation-Induced Sperm Head Defects
Biomedicines, 2020 Septins (SEPTs) are highly conserved GTP-binding proteins and the fourth component of the cytoskeleton. Polymerized SEPTs participate in the modulation of various cellular processes, such as cytokinesis, cell polarity, and membrane dynamics, through ...

Sperm DNA Integrity in Absolute Teratozoospermia Patients and its Impact on Assisted Reproductive Technology Outcome [PDF]
, 2023 Sperm DNA Fragmentation (SDF) is a common cause of male infertility, although it is underdiagnosed due to lack of routine testing. High levels of SDF are reported in men with abnormal sperm morphology.

Genetic aspects of monomorphic teratozoospermia: a review [PDF]
Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics, 2015 Teratozoospermia is characterized by the presence of spermatozoa with abnormal morphology over 85 % in sperm. When all the spermatozoa display a unique abnormality, teratozoospermia is said to be monomorphic. Two forms of monomorphic teratozoospermia, representing less than 1 % of male infertility, are recognized: macrozoospermia (also called ...
