Journal ArticleDOI
Male infertility: role of genetic background
Alberto Ferlin,Florina Raicu,Valentina Gatta,Daniela Zuccarello,Giandomenico Palka,Carlo Foresta +5 more
TL;DR: The genetic causes of male infertility known to date, the genetic polymorphisms possibly associated with male infertility, and novel results of global gene expression profiling of normal human testis by microarray technology are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of the MLPA Assay in the Molecular Diagnosis of Gene Copy Number Alterations in Human Genetic Diseases
TL;DR: The main applications of the MLPA technique for the molecular diagnosis of human diseases are described and the gold standard for molecular analysis of all pathologies derived from the presence of gene copy number variation is represented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Valproic acid is neuroprotective in the rotenone rat model of Parkinson's disease: involvement of alpha-synuclein.
Barbara Monti,Valentina Gatta,Francesca Piretti,Simonetta S. Raffaelli,Marco Virgili,Antonio Contestabile +5 more
TL;DR: The ability of VPA to increase histone acetylation is a novel candidate mechanism for its neuroprotective action in Parkinson’s disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epigenetics and male reproduction: the consequences of paternal lifestyle on fertility, embryo development, and children lifetime health
TL;DR: The role played by epigenetics on male reproduction is focused on, evidencing at least four different levels at which sperm epigenetic modifications could affect reproduction: spermatogenesis failure; embryo development; outcome of assisted reproduction technique (ART) protocols, mainly as concerning genomic imprinting; and long-term effects during the offspring lifetime.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ascorbic acid and beta-carotene as modulators of oxidative damage.
TL;DR: The ability of ascorbic acid and beta-carotene to act against damage induced by H2O2 and bleomycin, in Chinese hamster ovary cells cultivated in vitro is reported on.
