Sperm DNA fragmentation: focusing treatment on seminal transport fluid beyond sperm production.
Arch Ital Urol Androl
January 2025
Centro de Uro-Andrología S.C., Guadalajara, Jalisco.
Aim: To determine the effects of oral antibiotics and anti-inflammatory agents on semen parameters and the sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI).
Methods: Ninety-eight men with infertility diagnosis were included. The participants submitted two semen samples, before and at least two months after treatment.

It is believed that aneuploid embryos release cell-free DNA (cfDNA) into the blastocyst cavity during the self-correction process through the apoptotic mechanism. This study aimed to develop less invasive methods for predicting ploidy status by investigating how ploidy status affects blastocoel fluid DNA (BF-DNA) levels and apoptotic gene expression as indicators of embryo viability. Human blastocysts were classified into three groups; Survivable Embryo (SE), Fatal Single and double Aneuploidy (FSDA), and Multiple Aneuploidy (MA) using array comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH) by trophectoderm (TE) biopsy.

Gene conversions are thought to occur within relatively short tracts of DNA, estimated to be in the order of 100-1,000 bp in humans. However, the number of observable gene conversion tracts per study has so far been limited by the use of pedigree or sperm-typing data to detect gene conversion events.

Humans with mutations in suffer from Autoimmune Polyglandular Syndrome Type 1 (APS-1). Among many symptoms, men with APS-1 commonly experience testicular insufficiency and infertility, but the mechanisms causing infertility are unknown.

Histomorphometry and Stereology Research Center, Anatomy Department, School of Medicine, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran.
Background: In infertility clinics, long-time preserving high-quality spermatozoa is a challenging problem.
Objective: The present study aimed to prolong preserving of the human spermatozoa by adding pentoxifylline (PT) and L-carnitine (LC) without using high-cost freezing techniques.
Materials And Methods: In this experimental study, semen samples of 26 normozoospermia men aged between 28-34 yr, were firstly prepared using the swim-up technique, and each sample was divided into the following 3 aliquots: untreated control group, the LC, and PT-treated groups.
