Apoptosis is a form of regulated cell death (RCD) that involves proteases of the caspase
family. Pharmacological and genetic strategies that experimentally inhibit or delay apoptosis …

Spermatogenesis is a complex biological process of cellular transformation that produces
male haploid germ cells from diploid spermatogonial stem cells. This process has been …

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from living cells play important roles in donor cell-
induced recipient tissue regeneration. Although numerous studies have found that cells …

Phagocytosis, a critical early event in the microbicidal response of neutrophils, is now
appreciated to serve multiple functions in a variety of cell types. Professional phagocytes …

BACKGROUND Mitochondria are multitasking organelles involved in ATP synthesis,
reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, calcium signalling and apoptosis; and …

Cellular apoptosis appears to be a constant feature in the adult testis and during early
development. This is essential because mammalian spermatogenesis is a complex process …

Hypoxia is amongst the most widespread and pressing problems in aquatic environments.
Here we demonstrate that fish (Oryzias melastigma) exposed to hypoxia show reproductive …

BACKGROUND The human sperm cell is very well suited for proteomic studies, as it is
accessible, can be easily purified and is believed to be transcriptionally and translationally …

Spermatogenesis is a complex process in the testis and is a cornerstone of male infertility.
The abundance of unsaturated fatty acid and high cell division rate make male germs cells …
