Smoking‐induced genetic and epigenetic alterations in infertile men
(Wiley, 2018)
Male fertility rates have shown a progressive decrease in both developing and industrialised countries in the past 50 years. Clinical and epidemiological studies have demonstrated controversial results about the harmful ...
Radiations and male fertility
(Springer Nature, 2018)
During recent years, an increasing percentage of male infertility has to be attributed to an array of environmental,
health and lifestyle factors. Male infertility is likely to be affected by the intense exposure to heat ...
Reactive oxygen species and male reproductive hormones
(BMC, 2018)
Reports of the increasing incidence of male infertility paired with decreasing semen quality have triggered studies
on the effects of lifestyle and environmental factors on the male reproductive potential. There are ...
Reactive oxygen species and male reproductive hormones
(BMC, 2018)
Reports of the increasing incidence of male infertility paired with decreasing semen quality have triggered studies
on the effects of lifestyle and environmental factors on the male reproductive potential. There are ...
Determination of seminal oxidation–reduction potential (ORP) as an easy and cost-effective clinical marker of male infertility
(Wiley, 2017)
Oxidative stress (OS) is an important contributing factor to male infertility. While previous methods to measure seminal OS are time-consuming and limited to the use of freshly produced semen, oxidation reduction potential ...
Association between promoter methylation of MLH1 and MSH2 and reactive oxygen species in oligozoospermic men—A pilot study
(Wiley, 2017)
MLH1 and MSH2 are important genes for DNA mismatch repair and crossing over during
meiosis and are implicated in male infertility. Therefore, the methylation patterns
of the DNA mismatch repair genes MLH1 and MSH2 in ...
Microtubular dysfunction and male infertility
(Korean Society for Sexual Medicine and Andrology, 2018)
Microtubules are the prime component of the cytoskeleton along with microfilaments. Being vital for organelle transport and
cellular divisions during spermatogenesis and sperm motility process, microtubules ascertain ...
Interpretation of semen analysis using WHO 1999 and WHO 2010 reference values: Abnormal becoming normal
(Wiley, 2017)
Reference values of WHO 1999 manual were used for the interpretation of semen analysis until 2010 when new reference values were introduced which have lower cut-off compared to WHO 1999. Therefore, several men who previously ...
Carica papaya seed extract slows human sperm
(Elsevier, 2019)
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Traditional healers use Carica papaya seeds as a remedy for diseases and as a contraceptive for men and abortion in women.
Material and methods: Semen samples from 35 healthy men were allowed ...
Calibration of redox potential in sperm wash media and evaluation of oxidation–reduction potential values in various assisted reproductive technology culture media using MiOXSYS system
(Wiley, 2018)
Oxidation–reduction potential describes the balance between the oxidants and antioxidants in fluids including semen. Various artificial culture media are used in andrology and IVF laboratories for sperm preparation and to ...
