Efficacy and Safety of Hirudotherapy for Improving Sperm Quality Parameters in Male Infertility: A Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Male infertility, often characterized by impaired sperm parameters, remains a significant clinical challenge. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hirudotherapy (medicinal leech therapy) in improving sperm quality parameters in men with idiopathic infertility.

Deciphering mRNA Translation During Sperm Capacitation: A New Frontier in Fertility Research

open access: yesMolecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 93, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Male infertility accounts for approximately 50% of infertility cases, with nearly 30% remaining unexplained after standard evaluations. This highlights the need for a better understanding of sperm function to advance diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Sperm were long considered translationally quiescent; however, emerging evidence suggests

Serum and Seminal Plasma Zinc Levels and Immunopositivity of the ZIP6 and ZIP14 Transporters in Men with Normo- and Teratozoospermia

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology
Zinc plays a crucial role in spermatogenesis, sperm function, and fertilisation. Zinc homeostasis is regulated by ZIP and ZnT transporter proteins, which mediate Zn2+ influx and efflux across sperm cell membranes.

Isolated teratozoospermia: a cause of male sterility in the era oF ICSI?

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2007
Single structural defects involving the totality of ejaculated sperm are among rare cases of untreatable human male infertility. This form of infertility is of genetic origin and is generally transmitted as an autosomal recessive traits. Acrosome agenesis or globozoospermia results from perturbed expression of nuclear proteins or from an altered Golgi ...
