[ 2 ] - Ameliorating Effect of β-Carotene on Gene Expression Alteration in Spermatozoon Cultured With Titanium Oxide

Introduction: In the present study, we assessed the effects of β-carotene on Titanium oxide Nanoparticle (TNP) induced mouse Spermatozoon Stem Cells (SSCs) apoptosis, at molecular level.  Methods: After isolation from cryptorchid mouse testis and characterization, spermatogonial stem cells were divided into four groups. In the control group, spermatogonial cells were cultured in &alp...

[ 3 ] - Evaluation the Efficacy of HBA Sperm- Hyaluronan Binding Assay Method in Infertility Centers
