Male fertility restoration: in vivo and in vitro stem cell-based strategies using cryopreserved testis tissue: a scoping review.

Importance: Advances in the treatment of childhood cancer have significantly improved survival rates, with more than 80% of survivors reaching adulthood. However, gonadotoxic cancer treatments endanger future fertility, and prepubertal males have no option to preserve fertility by sperm cryopreservation. In addition, boys with cryptorchidism are at risk of compromised fertility in adulthood.

Short-Term Changes in Vasectomy Consults and Procedures Following .

Introduction: On June 24, 2022, the US Supreme Court issued its decision on . This decision had major implications on female reproductive choices, but also had potential implications on their male counterparts. We sought to determine the association of with the number and characteristics of men seeking vasectomy.

Results from the first autologous grafting of adult human testis tissue: a case report.

Fertility restoration using autologous testicular tissue transplantation is relevant for infertile men surviving from childhood cancer and, possibly, in men with absent or incomplete spermatogenesis resulting in the lack of spermatozoa in the ejaculate (non-obstructive azoospermia, NOA). Currently, testicular tissue from pre-pubertal boys extracted before treatment with gonadotoxic cancer therapy can be cryopreserved with good survival of spermatogonial stem cells. However, strategies for fertility restoration, after successful cancer treatment, are still experimental and no clinical methods have yet been developed.

Synthesis of Homo- and Heteromultivalent Fucosylated and Sialylated Oligosaccharide Conjugates Preactivated -Methyloxyamine Precision Macromolecules and Their Binding to Polyomavirus Capsid Proteins.

Glycoconjugates are a versatile class of bioactive molecules that have found application as vaccines and antivirals and in cancer therapy. Their synthesis typically involves elaborate functionalization and use of protecting groups on the carbohydrate component in order to ensure efficient and selective conjugation. Alternatively, non-functionalized, non-protected carbohydrates isolated from biological sources or derived through biotechnological methods can be directly conjugated -methyloxyamine groups.
