The emerging role of insulin-like growth factors in testis development and function

Richard J. Griffeth, Vanessa Bianda, Serge Nef · 18 Aug 2014

The insulin-like family of growth factors (IGFs) - composed of insulin, and insulin-like growth factors I (IGF1) and II (IGF2) - provides essential signals for the control of testis development and function. In the testis, IGFs act in an autocrine-paracrine manner but the extent of their actions has been underestimated due to redundancies at both…

Sperm quality and paternal age: effect on blastocyst formation and pregnancy rates

Aurélie Chapuis, A. Gala, Alice Ferrières-Hoa et al. · 13 Jan 2017

BACKGROUND: Several studies suggest a decrease in sperm quality in men in the last decades. Therefore, the aim of this work was to assess the influence of male factors (sperm quality and paternal age) on the outcomes of conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). METHODS: This retrospective study included all couples…

Predictive factors of successful microdissection testicular sperm extraction

Aaron Bernie, Ranjith Ramasamy, Peter N. Schlegel · 2 Oct 2013

Azoospermia in men requires microsurgical reconstruction or a procedure for sperm retrieval with assisted reproduction to allow fertility. While the chance of successful retrieval of sperm in men with obstructive azoospermia approaches >90%, the chances of sperm retrieval in men with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) are not as high. Conventional procedures such as fine needle aspiration…

Mammalian sperm nuclear organization: resiliencies and vulnerabilities

Alexandre Champroux, Janaína Torres Carreira, P. Gharagozloo et al. · 1 Dec 2016

Sperm cells are remarkably complex and highly specialized compared to somatic cells. Their function is to deliver to the oocyte the paternal genomic blueprint along with a pool of proteins and RNAs so a new generation can begin. Reproductive success, including optimal embryonic development and healthy offspring, greatly depends on the integrity of the sperm…
