Journal ArticleDOI
Suppression of Spermatogenesis in Man Induced by Nal- Glu Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Antagonist and Testosterone Enanthate (TE) Is Maintained by TE Alone*
Ronald S. Swerdloff,Carrie J. Bagatell,Christina Wang,B. D. Anawalt,Nancy Berman,Barbara Steiner,W. J. Bremner +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that sperm counts suppressed with GnRH antagonist plus T can be maintained with relatively low dose TE treatment alone and the concept should be explored further in the development of effective, safe, and affordable hormonal male contraceptives.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mild testicular hyperthermia induces profound transitional spermatogenic suppression through increased germ cell apoptosis in adult Cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis)
Yanhe Lue,Bill L. Lasley,Lisa S. Laughlin,Ronald S. Swerdloff,Amiya P. Sinha Hikim,Andrew Leung,James W. Overstreet,Christina Wang +7 more
TL;DR: Mild testicular hyperthermia results in azoospermia and oligozoospermia in monkeys through increased germ cell apoptosis with minimal effect on the hormonal milieu, similar to rodents.
Journal ArticleDOI
One semen sample or 2? Insights from a study of fertile men.
Abbie Stokes-Riner,Sally W. Thurston,Charlene Brazil,David S. Guzick,Fan Liu,James W. Overstreet,Christina Wang,Amy E.T. Sparks,J. Bruce Redmon,Shanna H. Swan +9 more
TL;DR: This study requests 2 semen samples from each participant in a prospective study of semen quality in partners of pregnant women, and considers the appropriateness of combining data from men who gave 1 sample and data from Men who gave 2 samples in the analysis and the cost of participant recruitment relative to thecost of sample analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of increased scrotal temperature on sperm production in normal men.
Christina Wang,V. McDonald,Andrew Leung,Laura Superlano,Nancy Berman,Laura Hull,Ronald S. Swerdloff +6 more
TL;DR: The increase in scrotal temperature induced by polyester-lined athletic supports was insufficient to cause significant suppression of spermatogenesis or alteration of sperm function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of Body Mass Index and Gender on Growth Hormone (GH) Responses to GH-Releasing Hormone Plus Arginine and Insulin Tolerance Tests
Xiao-Dan Qu,Irene T. Gaw Gonzalo,Mohammed Y. Al Sayed,Pejman Cohan,Peter D. Christenson,Ronald S. Swerdloff,Daniel F. Kelly,Christina Wang +7 more
TL;DR: GH response to GHRH + ARG and ITT stimulation is sensitive to BMI differences and less so to gender differences, and a higher BMI is associated with a depressed GH response to both stimulation tests.
