Purpose: Prior sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) thresholds for diagnosing male infertility and predicting assisted reproduction technology (ART) outcomes fluctuated between 15 and 30%, with no agreed standard. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the sperm DFI on early embryonic development during ART treatments and establish appropriate DFI cut-off values.
Methods: Retrospectively analyzed 913 couple's ART cycles from 2021 to 2022, encompassing 1,476 IVF and 295 ICSI cycles, following strict criteria.

Background: During mammalian spermatogenesis, the cytoskeleton system plays a significant role in morphological changes. Male infertility such as non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) might be explained by studies of the cytoskeletal system during spermatogenesis.
Methods: The cytoskeleton, scaffold, and actin-binding genes were analyzed by microarray and bioinformatics (771 spermatogenic cellsgenes and 774 Sertoli cell genes).

Erythromycin is becoming one of the most common contaminants detected in surface water and wastewater, which poses a potential risk to ecological systems and human health. Until now, there is still no effective way to eliminate it. Herein, a novel and efficient erythromycin-degrading fungus Peniophora incarnata F1, capable of utilizing erythromycin as its sole source of carbon and energy, was isolated from contaminated sludge.

Background: The widespread and evolution of RNA viruses, such as the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), highlights the importance of fast identification of virus subtypes, particularly in non-laboratory settings. Rapid and inexpensive at-home testing of viral nucleic acids with single-base resolution remains a challenge.
Methods: Topologically constrained DNA ring is engineered as substrates for the trans-cleavage of Cas13a to yield an accelerated post isothermal amplification.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally, necessitating the development of sensitive and minimally invasive diagnostic approaches. In this study, we present a novel diagnostic strategy by integrating dumbbell probe-mediated CRISPR/Cas13a with nicking-induced DNA cascade reaction (DP-bridged Cas13a/NDCR) for highly sensitive microRNA (miRNA) detection. Target miRNA triggers Cas13a-mediated cleavage of the dumbbell probe, releasing an intermediate strand that hybridizes with a methylene blue-labeled hairpin probe on the electrode surface.
