The in vivo role of epidermal growth factor (EGF) is not well defined even though its effects on culture cells were well studied. To understand the developmental, physiological, and pathological roles of EGF, we have generated transgenic mice widely expressing human EGF with the use of the
Male infertility is a global health issue caused by a combination of different factors. Specialists generally rely on semen analysis to diagnose male infertility. However, it is known that diagnostic semen analysis fails to identify about 50% of male infertility disorders. Recently, The epidermal growth factor (EGF) family of peptides signals through the erbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases and plays important roles in development and tumorigenesis. Both EGF and transforming growth factor (TGF)-alpha only bind to erbB1 and activate it. The precursor of EGF is distinct from
The isoprenoid pathway produces 3 key metabolites: digoxin (membrane sodium-potassium ATPase inhibitor and regulator of neurotransmitter transport), dolichol (regulates N-glycosylation of proteins), and ubiquinone (free radical scavenger). The pathway was assessed in patients with human male
To investigate the correlation of the single nucleotide polymorphisms rs995030 and rs4474514 of the tyrosine kinase receptor-specific ligand (KITLG) gene with the risk of male infertility.This study included 360 patients with idiopathic male infertility and Is it possible to induce in vitro reorganization of primary human testis cells from testicular sperm extraction (TESE) biopsies, maintain their long-term cultivation in a 2D system and identify cellular compositions?
In vitro reorganization of primary human testis cells from TESE biopsies and their
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to analyze the seminal plasma of patients with idiopathic/male factor infertility and healthy controls with proven fertility by NMR spectroscopy, with a hope of establishing difference in biomarker profiles, if any, between the groups.
METHODS
A total of 103
BACKGROUND
There is much evidence involving the KIT tyrosine kinase receptor and its ligand KITLG in the survival and proliferation of germ cells. Animal models and functional studies in humans suggest that this signalling pathway plays a role in male infertility.
METHODS
We studied three and two
Neuronlike, catecholaminergic cells expressing tyrosine-hydroxylase (TH) have recently been found in the testis of a nonhuman primate species, the rhesus monkey. We examined whether neuronlike cells are present in the human testis. To this end, we first determined if the genes for TH and for a
