Does the deletion of adipose triglyceride lipase (Atgl) gene impair male fertility?
The deletion of Atgl gene impaired male fertility but the effect was partially reversed by a low long-chain triglyceride (TG) diet.
ATGL specifically hydrolyses long-chain fatty acid TG to diacylglycerol and a high
Searching for further characteristics of sperm in the diagnosis of male infertility it was examined if ejaculates with "normo-, oligo-, astheno-, terato-" and "azoospermia" showed typical modifications in their triglyceride- and phospholipid contents. The examination was conveyed in spermatozoa and
Cholesterol and lipid homeostasis is important for male fecundity. However, the plasma total cholesterol level does not reflect sperm concentration and motility. Adipose tissue in mammals is the main tissue contributing to the dynamic equilibrium of lipid synthesis and catabolism. However, recent
To address the consistent finding of asthenospermia in spinal cord injured men we compared the biochemical constituents of antegrade fractions of electroejaculates of 6 such patients with the manual ejaculates of 6 volunteers. Semen samples in each group were analyzed for 19 biochemical parameters,
We have generated mouse lines in which the RXR beta gene was disrupted by homologous recombination. Approximately 50% of the RXR beta homozygous mutants died before or at birth, but those that survived appeared normal except that the males were sterile, owing to oligo-astheno-teratozoospermia.
