Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Male Ruminant Reproduction — A Review
Fatty acids such as n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are critical nutrients, used to improve male reproductive performance through modification of fatty acid profile and maintenance of sperm membrane integrity, especially under cold shock or cryopreservation condition. Also, PUFA provide the precursors for prostaglandin synthesis and can modulate the expression patterns of many ke...
متن کاملEstrogens and male reproduction: a new concept.
The mammalian testis serves two main functions: production of spermatozoa and synthesis of steroids; among them estrogens are the end products obtained from the irreversible transformation of androgens by a microsomal enzymatic complex named aromatase. The aromatase is encoded by a single gene (cyp19) in humans which contains 18 exons, 9 of them being translated. In rats, the aromatase activity...
متن کاملSmoking and Male Infertility: An Evidence-Based Review
Many studies have reported that the contents of cigarette smoke negatively affect sperm parameters, seminal plasma, and various other fertility factors. Nevertheless, the actual effect of smoking on male fertility is not clear. The effect of smoking on semen parameters is based on the well-established biological finding that smoking increases the presence of reactive oxygen species, thereby res...
متن کاملTesticular Estrogens and Male Reproduction.
Besides somatic cells, aromatase gene expression and its transduction in an active protein in germ cells provides evidence of an additional site for estrogen production within testes of some mammals. Together with the widespread distribution of estrogen receptors in testicular cells, these data illuminate the hormonal regulation of male reproductive function
