Ezrin: a regulator of actin microfilaments in cell junctions of the rat testis
Asian Journal of Andrology, 2015 Ezrin, radixin, moesin and merlin (ERM) proteins are highly homologous actin-binding proteins that share extensive sequence similarity with each other.

Are sperm capacitation and apoptosis the opposite ends of a continuum driven by oxidative stress?
Asian Journal of Andrology, 2015 This chapter explores the possibility that capacitation and apoptosis are linked processes joined by their common dependence on the continued generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Redox Regulation of Starch Metabolism
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Metabolism of starch is a major biological integrator of plant growth supporting nocturnal energy dynamics by transitory starch degradation as well as periods of dormancy, re-growth, and reproduction by utilization of storage starch.

Antioxidants, 2018 Thiol-based redox control is one of the important posttranslational mechanisms of the tetrapyrrole biosynthesis pathway. Many enzymes of the pathway have been shown to interact with thioredoxin (TRX) and Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)

Sperm DNA fragmentation, recurrent implantation failure and recurrent miscarriage
Asian Journal of Andrology, 2015 Evidence is increasing that the integrity of sperm DNA may also be related to implantation failure and recurrent miscarriage (RM). To investigate this, the sperm DNA fragmentation in partners of 35 women with recurrent implantation failure (RIF ...

Human sperm chromatin epigenetic potential: genomics, proteomics, and male infertility
Asian Journal of Andrology, 2015 The classical idea about the function of the mammalian sperm chromatin is that it serves to transmit a highly protected and transcriptionally inactive paternal genome, largely condensed by protamines, to the next generation.

Rheostat re-wired: alternative hypotheses for the control of thioredoxin reduction potentials. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Thioredoxins are small soluble proteins that contain a redox-active disulfide (CXXC). These disulfides are tuned to oxidizing or reducing potentials depending on the function of the thioredoxin within the cell.
