In brief Oxidative stress is recognized as an underlying driving factor of both telomere
dysfunction and human subfertility/infertility. This review briefly reassesses telomere integrity …

Proteomic methodologies offer a robust approach to identify and quantify thousands of
proteins from semen components in both fertile donors and infertile patients. These …

Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, single-stranded, non-coding RNA molecules of
22–24 nucleotides that regulate gene expression. In the last decade, miRNAs have been …

Cellular metabolism is an important feature of spermatozoa that deserves more insights to
be fully understood, in particular in porcine semen physiology. The present study aims to …

Male infertility has been recognized as a global health problem. Semen analysis, although
considered the golden standard, may not provide a confident male infertility diagnosis alone …

Male infertility is a reproductive disorder, accounting for 40–50% of infertility. Currently, in
about 70% of infertile men, the cause remains unknown. With the introduction of novel omics …

Background Semen quality is negatively correlated with male age and is mainly quantified
by a routine semen analysis, which is descriptive and inconclusive. Sperm proteins or …

Abstract Infertility affects 1-in-6 couples, with repeated intensive cycles of assisted
reproductive technology (ART) required by many to achieve a desired live birth. In ART …

Male infertility (MI) involves various endogenous and exogenous facts. These include
oxidative stress (OS), which is known to alter several physiological pathways and it is …

Background. Studies indicate a relationship between a high-fat diet (HFD) and sperm
quality. However, the time-dependent adverse effects of a HFD on sperm parameters and …
