conclusions it seems that the preventive effects of rutin against damages caused by ida can be attributed to its ability to reduce apoptosis, which may be mediated by underexpression of caspase3 and overexpression of bcl2 genes. also, it could increase the expression of dazl that may be important in spermatogenesis. methods in the current experimental study, balb/c mice were divided into 8 grou...

Spermatogenesis is regulated by genetic and epigenetic factors. However, the genes signaling pathways mediating human spermatogenesis remain largely unknown. Here, we have for first time explored expression, function, mechanism of glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPx3) in controlling proliferation apoptosis spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs). We found that GPx3 was expressed SSCs. Notably, revealed knoc...

during hibernation period from mid october to late march, we removed testis of laudakia caucasia. based on histological and statistical analyses we obtained two phases in spermatogenesis in this lizard as follows: (a) from october to december, in which the spermatogenesis is inactive and (b) from january to march, in which the spermatogenesis is active. spermatogenesis during late hibernation o...

Effect of ginger (Zingiber officinale R.) on metiram-inhibited spermatogenesis and induced apoptosis in albino miceSaber A. Sakr, Gamal M. Badawy

I investigated the seasonal testicular histology and acystic lobular spermatogenesis in Western Lesser Siren, Siren intermedia nettingi, from periodic sampling of this salamander over a span 21 yr (1994-2015) northeastern Arkansas. My results include following general findings: 1) largest lobules occurred primarily January-February during spermiogenesis spermatozoa maturation; 2) regression spe...

BACKGROUND Irradiation or chemotherapy that suspend normal spermatogenesis is commonly used to treat various cancers. Fortunately, spermatogenesis in many cases can be restored after such treatments but knowledge is limited about the re-initiation process. Earlier studies have described the cellular changes that happen during recovery from irradiation by means of histology. We have earlier gene...

We showed previously that testosterone (T) alone could induce spermatogenesis and produce normally fertile spermatozoa in the absence of circulating gonadotropins. These studies used the hpg mouse, which is characterized by a congenital gonadotrophin deficiency due to a major deletion in the GnRH gene. Administering T by a subdermal implant of a SILASTIC brand tube impregnated with crystalline ...

objective: animal model studies have shown that msy2 and jhdm2a genes have an important role in spermatogenesis process and fertility of male mice. but the potential role of these genes in human spermatogenesis and fertility is not known yet. therefore, we evaluated expression ratios of these genes in testis tissues of men with normal and impaired spermatogenesis. materials and methods: in this...

Fragments of testis tissue from immature animals grow and develop spermatogenesis when grafted onto subcutaneous areas of immunodeficient mice. The same results are obtained when dissociated cells from immature testes of rodents are injected into the subcutis of nude mice. Those cells reconstitute seminiferous tubules and facilitate spermatogenesis. We compared these two methods, tissue graftin...
