Novel biallelic variants in DNAH1 cause multiple morphological abnormalities of sperm flagella with favorable outcomes of fertility after ICSI in Han Chinese males
Conclusion: These findings further expand the variant spectrum ofDNAH1 gene related to MMAF and male infertility in humans, thus providing new information for the molecular diagnosis of asthenoteratozoospermia. The favorable fertility outcomes of ICSI will facilitate the genetic counseling and clinical treatment of infertile males with MMAF in the future.This article is protected by copyright.

BMP2 restores erectile dysfunction through neurovascular regeneration and fibrosis reduction in diabetic mice
ConclusionBMP2 modulates neurovascular regeneration and inhibits fibrosis to revive the mice's erection function in diabetic conditions. Our findings propose that the BMP2 protein represents a novel and promising approach to treating diabetes-related erectile dysfunction (ED).This article is protected by copyright.

A novel SNP in HUWE1 promoter confers increased risk of NOA by affecting the RA/RAR α pathway in Chinese individuals
ConclusionsAnHUWE1 promoter SNP significantly downregulates its expression in NOA patients. Mechanistically, HUWE1 regulates germ cell differentiation during meiotic prophase through its participation in RA/RAR α signaling and subsequent modulation of γH2AX. Taken together, these results strongly suggest that the genetic polymorphisms ofHUWE1 are closely related to spermatogenesis and NOA pathogenesis.This article is protected by copyright.

A 2 ‐week high‐intensity interval training intervention improves ejaculation control among men with premature ejaculation
Discussion and conclusionIn summary, HIIT intervention may reduce PE symptoms in men with PE. The heart-rate increase during the intervention may be a key factor influencing the effect of the HIIT intervention on PE symptoms. (Source: Andrology)

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection vs. in ‐vitro fertilization in couples in whom the male partners had a semen analysis within normal reference ranges: An open debate
AbstractDuring recent decades, the application of intracytoplasmic sperm injection has increased considerably worldwide, especially in couples with non-male factor infertility. However, several studies analyzing the broad use of intracytoplasmic sperm injection, even in cases with a normal semen analysis, have collectively demonstrated no benefits compared to conventional in-vitro fertilization. Currently, there is insufficient evidence to support the intracytoplasmic sperm injection technique vs. in-vitro fertilization in cases of poor ovarian response or a low number of oocytes collected, or in patients with advanced mat...

Association between central obesity and semen quality: A cross ‐sectional study in 4513 chinese sperm donation volunteers
ConclusionWe found that central obesity was significantly associated with a reduction in semen volume, total sperm number, total motile sperm number and total progressive motile sperm number. Future studies are warranted to confirm our results in other regions and populations.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved (Source: Andrology)

Up to the maximum —testosterone dose‐dependent effects on anabolic and androgen responsive tissues in orchiectomized rats
Discussion and conclusionThe dose-dependent androgenic effects of testosterone were well observable and the anabolic effects on muscle tissue were visible although to a lesser degree, without the support of aerobic exercise and a protein rich diet. Future studies should investigate a combinatorial effect of testosterone and training. Nevertheless, with the chosen range of applied testosterone, we showed a saturation of testosterone effects in prostate, seminal vesicle, penis, andLevator ani. (Source: Andrology)
