⚡ How do sperm find the right “gear” for fertilization?
New research reveals that lactate shifts bull sperm from zigzag motility to straight-line movement by suppressing glycolysis and boosting oxidative metabolism. 🚀
📡 Can prolonged exposure to 35.5 GHz millimeter waves, like those used in modern wireless tech, affect male fertility?
This study shows chronic exposure in rats led to oxidative stress, DNA damage, and impaired sperm quality, pointing to potential risks for testicular health.
The authors reconstruct Abraham’s family tree and explore whether these stories of late pregnancies and divine intervention could reflect a real familial pattern of infertility.
A new article looks at the Genetics of infertility and “assisted fertilization” in the Bible. It focuses on Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, whose wives all faced infertility.
Using at-home semen tests, researchers found that lower sperm concentration, total count, and motile sperm count were all linked to reduced chances of conception per cycle.
🚨 LH and FSH may come from the same cell – but they follow very different paths.
This new review traces the evolution and trafficking of gonadotropins from primitive fish to mammals, revealing how molecular tweaks to FSH secretion can boost ovulation and ovarian health.
New clues in the quest to predict male fertility in boars 🐖💡
Proteomic profiling of pig seminal extracellular vesicles reveals dozens of proteins linked to sperm function, embryo development, and implantation. These biomarkers could improve boar selection in AI programs.
