Although mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) protein has emerged as a specific and crucial protein for necroptosis induction, how MLKL transduces the death signal remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that the full four-helical bundle domain (4HBD) in the N-terminal region of MLKL is required and sufficient to induce its oligomerization and trigger cell death. Moreover, we found t...

The human thiamine transporter hTHTR1 is involved in the cellular accumulation of thiamine (vitamin B1) in many tissues. Thiamine deficiency disorders, such as thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anemia (TRMA), which is associated with specific mutations within hTHTR1, likely impairs the functionality and/or intracellular targeting of hTHTR1. Unfortunately, nothing is known about the mechanisms t...

The aim of this study was to compare the effect of different packaging systems on some parameters of cryopreserved canine spermatozoa. The experimental material consisted of the sperm-rich fractions of ejaculates collected from four Beagle dogs. Semen samples for cryopreservation were stored in 0.25 ml plastic straws and two aluminum tubes with a total volume of 5.0 ml. Semen was frozen in stat...

Injury and physical trauma may inflict accidental cell death, but we have come to realize during the past four decades that cells may also actively engage cell death when needed. These regulated cell death forms are intrinsically connected with human embryonic development, homeostatic maintenance and disease pathology. For instance, the human body is composed of approximately 10(14) cells, mill...

Background: Following the expansion of human infertility, different procedures have been utilized for separation of normal sperm during ICSI (Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection). Hypo-osmotic swelling test (HOST) is one of the tests which have been introduced for assessment of integrity of sperm membrane when confronted with hypo osmotic condition. This test may also reflect intracellular organe...

Olfactory receptors expressed in heterologous cells often suffer from retention in the endoplasmic reticulum and poor trafficking to the plasma membrane. Interactions of the olfactory receptor M71 with several subtypes of adrenergic and purinergic receptors can alleviate M71 trafficking deficits in heterologous cells and allow for robust M71 plasma membrane expression. Furthermore, the signalin...

Oxidative stress has been identified as a crucial factor leading to male infertility largely due to peroxidativedamage to the sperm cell membrane. Cadmium (Cd) is a widespread environmental pollutant and oneof the well-known reproductive toxicants. Because of its long biological half-life (10–30 years), Cdaccumulates in the biological systems. The present study was designed to assess the concen...

background: curcumin has shown to affect sperm motility and function in vitro and fertility in vivo. the molecular mechanism(s) by which curcumin affects sperm motility has not been delineated. since modulation of intracellular ph (phi) and plasma membrane polarization is involved in sperm motility, the present study was conducted to investigate the effect of curcumin on these sperm (human and ...
