Mitochondria have multiple functions, including synthesis of adenine triphosphate,
production of reactive oxygen species, calcium signalling, thermogenesis and apoptosis …

Although mitochondria are best known for being the eukaryotic cell powerhouses, these
organelles participate in various cellular functions besides ATP production, such as calcium …

The incorporation of mitochondria in the eukaryotic cell is one of the most enigmatic events
in the course of evolution. This important organelle was thought to be only the powerhouse …

BACKGROUND The best-known role of spermatozoa is to fertilize the oocyte and to transmit
the paternal genome to offspring. These highly specialized cells have a unique structure …

This review summarizes current research in sperm mitochondrial function with specific
emphasis on mitochondrial metabolism, reactive oxygen species production and …

Introduction: The role of nutraceuticals in the treatment of male infertility, especially in the
“idiopathic form”, remains the subject of significant debate. Many antioxidants improve …

Human sperm samples are very heterogeneous and include a low amount of truly functional
gametes. Distinct strategies have been developed to characterize and isolate this specific …

Mitochondria are structurally and functionally distinct organelles that produce adenosine
triphosphate (ATP) through oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), to provide energy to …

Simple Summary Mitochondria play a crucial role in numerous cellular processes, including
energy production, apoptosis, and calcium homeostasis. In the male reproductive system …

Contents While, for a long time, the role of mitochondria in sperm physiology and pathology
has been largely ignored, recent research points out the mitochondria as a major organelle …
