Background: Male factors, mainly spermatogenesis disorder, are responsible for 20-30% of infertility occurs in different societies. One of the known causes of spermatogenesis disorder is chemotherapy in patients with cancer. The side effect of chemotherapic agents may last from 10 years up to the end of the life. Since dividing cells are mainly affected by anticancer drugs, the aim of the prese...

Background: Infertility problem affects young couples. One of the known causes of spermatogenic disorder is chemotherapy in patients with cancer. Since dividing cells are mainly affected by anticancer drugs, the aim of the present study is to investigate the preventive effect of GnRH on spermatogenic defect produced by anticancer drug. Materials and Methods: In the present study 30 adult female...

Two experiments (Exp.) were conducted to determine the effects of dietary addition of five herbal plants (HP) alone or as herbal plant mixture (HPM) on in vitro gas production and ruminal fermentation patterns. In Exp. 1, five varieties of HP (garlic, eucalyptus, cinnamon, thyme, and peppermint) were added to the diet at 3 different concentrations (5, 10 and 15% of concentrate dry matt...

Let $G$ be a $p$-group of nilpotency class $k$ with finite exponent $exp(G)$ and let $m=lfloorlog_pk floor$. We show that $exp(M^{(c)}(G))$ divides $exp(G)p^{m(k-1)}$, for all $cgeq1$, where $M^{(c)}(G)$ denotes the c-nilpotent multiplier of $G$. This implies that $exp( M(G))$ divides $exp(G)$, for all finite $p$-groups of class at most $p-1$. Moreover, we show that our result is an improvement...

background: vitrification has proven to be more effective than slow freezing methods to cryopreserve mammalian oocytes. the objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of vitrification on immature and in vitro matured, denuded and cumulus compact goat oocytes and their subsequent fertilization. methods: oocytes were either cryopreserved as immature cumulus compact (imcc) (n=98 exp 1; ...

let $g$ be a $p$-group of nilpotency class $k$ with finite exponent $exp(g)$ and let $m=lfloorlog_pk floor$. we show that $exp(m^{(c)}(g))$ divides $exp(g)p^{m(k-1)}$, for all $cgeq1$, where $m^{(c)}(g)$ denotes the c-nilpotent multiplier of $g$. this implies that $exp( m(g))$ divides $exp(g)$, for all finite $p$-groups of class at most $p-1$. moreover, we show that our result is an improvement...

Background: Infertility problem affects young couples. One of the known causes of spermatogenic disorder is chemotherapy in patients with cancer. Since dividing cells are mainly affected by anticancer drugs, the aim of the present study is to investigate the preventive effect of GnRH antagonist on spermatogenic defect produced by anticancer drug. Materials and Methods: In the present study 30 a...
