Journal ArticleDOI
Insulin dependant diabetes mellitus: implications for male reproductive function
I.M. Agbaje,Deirdre Rogers,Carmel M. McVicar,Neil McClure,A.B. Atkinson,Con Mallidis,Sheena E.M. Lewis +6 more
TL;DR: Diabetes is associated with increased sperm nuclear and mtDNA damage that may impair the reproductive capability of men attending fertility clinics and this work aims to address this concern.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advanced glycation end products accumulate in the reproductive tract of men with diabetes
Con Mallidis,I.M. Agbaje,Deirdre Rogers,J. V. Glenn,R. S. Pringle,A.B. Atkinson,Klaus Steger,Alan W. Stitt,Neil McClure +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the presence and localization of carboxymethyl-lysine (CML) in the human testis, epididymis and sperm was determined by immunohistochemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased concentrations of the oxidative DNA adduct 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2-deoxyguanosine in the germ-line of men with type 1 diabetes.
I.M. Agbaje,Carmel M. McVicar,Bettina C. Schock,Neil McClure,A.B. Atkinson,Deirdre Rogers,Sem Lewis +6 more
TL;DR: The genomic damage evident in spermatozoa of type 1 diabetics may have important implications for their fertility and the outcome of pregnancies fathered by these individuals.
Journal Article
Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) accumulate in the Reproductive Tract of Men with Diabetes.
Con Mallidis,I.M. Agbaje,Deirdre Rogers,J. V. Glenn,R. S. Pringle,A.B. Atkinson,Klaus Steger,Alan W. Stitt,Neil McClure +8 more
TL;DR: Considering the known detrimental actions of AGEs in other organs, the presence, location and quantity of CML, particularly the increased expression found in diabetic men, suggest that these compounds may play a hitherto unrecognized role in male infertility.
