Etiology and Evaluation of Sperm Chromatin Anomalies
Evidence suggests that human sperm chromatin anomalies adversely affect reproductive outcomes and infertile men possess substantially amount of sperm with chromatin anomalies than fertile men. Routine semen analysis evaluates parameters such as sperm motility and morphology, but does not examine the nuclear DNA integrity of spermatozoa. It has been suggested that altered nuclear chromatin struc...
متن کاملEngineered apoptotic nucleases for chromatin research
We have created new genomics tools for chromatin research by genetically engineering the human and mouse major apoptotic nucleases that are responsible for internucleosomal DNA cleavage, DNA fragmentation factor (DFF). Normally, in its inactive form, DFF is a heterodimer composed of a 45-kDa chaperone inhibitor subunit (DFF45 or ICAD), and a 40-kDa latent endonuclease subunit (DFF40 or CAD). Up...
متن کاملP-12: The Improvement of Sperm Parameters and Chromatin Quality by Vitamin E Supplement in Mice
Background: Vitamin E is believed to be the primary component of the antioxidant system in spermatozoa. There is a relationship between activity of these antioxidant and function of sperm. Vitamins E and C which are belong to non-enzymatic antioxidant are used as a supplemented drug to improve sperm quality and male fertility. The present study was carried out to investigate the positive effect...
متن کاملNew Mitotic Regulators Released from Chromatin
Faithful action of the mitotic spindle segregates duplicated chromosomes into daughter cells. Perturbations of this process result in chromosome mis-segregation, leading to chromosomal instability and cancer development. Chromosomes are not simply passengers segregated by spindle microtubules but rather play a major active role in spindle assembly. The GTP bound form of the Ran GTPase (RanGTP),...
متن کاملCations and the accessibility of chromatin to nucleases.
When rat liver nuclei prepared with polyamines as stabilising cations are digested with DNAase II, release of both inactive chromatin and Mg-soluble, active chromatin is greatly reduced, in comparison to digestion of liver nuclei prepared with Mg2+ as stabilising cation. Chromatin release from polyamine stabilised nuclei is also inhibited relative to Mg-stabilised nuclei following digestion wit...
