Subfertility is common and affects one in six couples, half of whom lack an explanation for
their delay in conceiving. Developments in the diagnosis and treatment of subfertility over …

Spermatogenesis is a complex developmental process that ultimately generates mature
spermatozoa. This process involves a phase of proliferative expansion, meiosis, and …

Infertility is a common problem affecting one in six couples and in 30% of infertile couples,
the male factor is a major cause. A large number of genes are involved in spermatogenesis …

BACKGROUND Successful gametogenesis requires the establishment of an appropriate
epigenetic state in developing germ cells. Nevertheless, an association between abnormal …

Normal testicular physiology results from the integrated function of the tubular and interstitial
compartments. Serum markers of interstitial tissue function are testosterone and insulin‐like …

BACKGROUND Subfertility affects approximately 15% of all couples, and a severe male
factor is identified in 17% of these couples. While the etiology of a severe male factor …

Spermatogenesis consists broadly of three phases: proliferation of diploid germ cells,
meiosis, and finally extensive differentiation of the haploid cells into effective delivery …

Approximately 1 in 6 couples in the Western world is not able to conceive spontaneously
after 1 year of unprotected intercourse; in nearly half of these couples, the male partner has …

Many studies have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) play vital roles during the
spermatogenesis. However, little is known about the altered miRNA profiles of testicular …

Background Several diet patterns have been suggested as involved in processes of
spermatogenesis and thus in male subfertility. To study the relation between Mediterranean …
