A new rat mutant showing aspermia was investigated. Groups of 4-7 mutant male rats were killed at 3, 5, 10, 15 and 25 weeks of age. Examination by microscope showed apparent abnormalities in the seminiferous epithelium from 3 weeks of age onward. Inclusion-like bodies were observed in the cytoplasm
The clinico-morphologic, clinico-endocrinologic, and morpho-endocrinologic parallels were studied in 126 males with aspermia who underwent genitography and biopsy of the testes. On the basis of the findings, the structure of male sterility in aspermia was exactly identified and the differential
The occurrence of hormonal disorders in 1.4 to 9.7% of the patients of andrology units justify a corresponding hormone analysis. Besides helping to make the differential-diagnosis of a disease hormone results are important for the description of preservation of spermatogenesis in cases of aspermia
BACKGROUND
Gene-regulated mechanisms govern tumor development, but the actual development of tumors can be suppressed or promoted by epigenetic factors. Lobund-Wistar (L-W) rats are genetically predisposed to development of spontaneous and induced metastasizing moderately differentiated
Chemosterilants have long been used in sterilization programs for managing pet, stray, and wild animals but adverse effects such as trauma, incomplete responses to treatment, and complete abolition of gonadal sources of testosterone often occurs. This study describes the biosterilant effects of
Twelve men with different forms and stages of chronic radiation dermatitis caused by accidental exposure to beta and gamma irradiation during and after the Chernobyl atomic power plant accident were examined. Two patients had impotentia coeundi, and the others reported various impairments of sexual
Testicular volume, hormones, and growth factors are used as predictors of finding motile testicular sperm in azoospermic men. In this study, the possible predictive value of very simple parameters such as systematic history, clinical examination, and determination of ejaculate volume have been
A 90-day/one-generation reproduction study was conducted in male and female Crl:CD BR rats using dietary levels of 0, 0.05, 2.5, 10, and 50 ppm 17 beta-estradiol. The goals of this study were to set dose levels and evaluate several mechanistic endpoints for inclusion in multigeneration reproduction
Eight patients with congenital anorchism were examined and treated. Plasma LH, FSH, and testosterone concentrations and the saliva testosterone level were measured by RIA in 3 patients. The results showed a 2.75 times increase in LH level, a 1.66 times increase in FSH level, and hardly measurable
BACKGROUND
Aspermia caused by exogenous testosterone limit its usage in late-onset hypogonadism (LOH) patients desiring fertility. Saikokaryukotsuboreito (SKRBT) is reported to improve serum testosterone and relieve LOH-related symptoms. However, it is unclear whether SKRBT affects fertility. We
Hypogonadism in male hemodialysis patients has been previously reported. However, its precise pathogenesis has not yet been clarified. Mepitiostane and nandrolone decanoate are anabolic steroids prescribed for uremic anemia, and those may possibly exacerbate uremic gonadal damage. We studied the
What are the primary causes of severe male factor infertility?
Although 40% of all patients showed primary causes of infertility, which could be subdivided into three groups based on the severity of their effect, ~75% of oligozoospermia cases remained idiopathic.
There are few large-scale
The objective of the study was to investigate the protective effect of Apium graveolens (AP) against di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP)-induced testes injury in rats. Adult rats were divided into nine groups: (1) control group (no treatment); (2) corn oil (60 μg/kg body weight - bwt); (3) AP (50
An experiment with breeding red fox to blue fox by artificial insemination is described. The conception rate obtained was low. Of five blue fox vixens three whelped, and average litter size was 6.5. None of the six red fox vixens whelped. Examination of semen from the hybrid males showed aspermia.
