Tao Luo,Houyang Chen,Qian-xing Zou,Tao Wang,Yi-Min Cheng,Hua-feng Wang,Fang Wang,Zhong-Lin Jin,Ying Chen,Shiqi Weng,Xu-Hui Zeng +10 more
TL;DR: The findings from the unique human CATSPer 'knockout' model in this study not only confirm the essential roles of CATSPER in mediating progesterone response and regulating hyperactivation in human spermatozoa but also reveal that disruption of CAT SPER current is a significant factor causing idiopathic male infertility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diethylstilbestrol activates CatSper and disturbs progesterone actions in human spermatozoa
Qian-xing Zou,Zhen Peng,Qing Zhao,Houyang Chen,Yi-Min Cheng,Qing Liu,Yuanqiao He,Shiqi Weng,Hua-feng Wang,Tao Wang,Li-Ping Zheng,Tao Luo +11 more
TL;DR: The present study revealed that diethylstilbestrol interfered with progesterone-stimulated Ca2+ signaling and tyrosine phosphorylation, ultimately inhibited progester one-induced human sperm functions and, thereby, might impair sperm fertility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seminal bacterial composition in patients with obstructive and non-obstructive azoospermia.
TL;DR: The seminal microbiome of patients with obstructive or non-obstructive azoospermia was explored and it was revealed that Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria species comprised the majority of bacteria in the C, OA and NOA groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lead Inhibits Human Sperm Functions by Reducing the Levels of Intracellular Calcium, cAMP, and Tyrosine Phosphorylation.
TL;DR: The findings suggest that lead inhibits human sperm functions by reducing the levels of sperm intracellular cAMP, [Ca(2+)]i and tyrosine phosphorylation of sperm proteins in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lysine glutarylation in human sperm is associated with progressive motility.
Yi-Min Cheng,Xiao-Nian Hu,Zhen Peng,Tingting Pan,Fang Wang,Houyang Chen,Wen-Qiong Chen,Yu Zhang,Xu-Hui Zeng,Tao Luo +9 more
TL;DR: The present study indicated the involvement of sperm Kglu in maintaining progressive motility of human sperm, and suggested that abnormality of sperm PLMs may be one of the causes of asthenozoospermia.
