Probiotics have been suggested as alternatives to pharmacological drugs in the treatment of a variety medical problems, including obesity management, which is often linked low sperm production. Also, probiotic fermented products are known boost host immune response, immunosenescence, infection tolerance, and redox homeostasis, but their direct role male fertility has less investigated. This study assessed effect two strains, L. fermentum NCDC 400 rhamnosus 610, fructooligosaccharide (FOS) milk supplementation. We identified significantly reduced oxidative stress markers plasma liver HF diet-fed animals. determined key testicular enzymes steroidogenic pathway genes StAR, P450scc, 17βHSD maintaining testosterone concentration restoring structures. In conclusion, present work illustrated ability both probiotics 610 regulatory agents with beneficial effects on weight loss endogenous substantially improved motility diet-induced (DIO) models. Our findings indicate that supplementation may be an alternative for preventing other related metabolic syndromes.

Obesity prevalence worldwide is increasing significantly. Whilst maternal obesity has clear detrimental impacts on fertility, pregnancy and foetal outcomes, more recently there been an focus the role of paternal in human fertility. Recent meta-analyses have indicated that men negatively affects basic sperm parameters such as count, concentration motility, increases incidence infertility reduces chances conception. Sperm DNA damage, typically characterised by strand breaks oxidation nucleotides, a specialised marker quality independently associated with recurrent miscarriage, reduced assisted reproduction success increased mutational loads subsequent offspring. Whilst, are still conflicting data humans to association evidence from rodent models clear, indicating male damage. Human often because large heterogeneity amongst studies, use body mass index indicator methods used for detection Furthermore, comorbidities (i.e., heat stress, adipokines, insulin resistance, changes lipids, hypogonadism obstructive sleep apnoea) also damage not always modified obesity, may provide causative link discrepancies studies. In this review, we update literature regarding associations between We further discuss potential reasons outline possible direct indirect mechanisms resulting obesity.

The rising incidence of obesity has coincided with levels poor reproductive outcomes. molecular basis for the association infertility in obese males is now being explained through various mechanisms. Insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, and changes serum gonadal concentrations adipokines, like leptin, adiponectin, resistin, ghrelin have been implicated as causes male males. effects hypogonadism form a vicious cycle whereby dysregulation hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis-due to effect release multiple mediators, thus decreasing GnRH from hypothalamus-causes decreases LH FSH levels. This leads lower testosterone, which further increases adiposity because increased lipogenesis. Cytokines such TNF-α interleukins, sirtuins, other inflammatory mediators reactive oxygen species are known affect fertility adults. There evidence that parental can be transferred subsequent generations offspring epigenetic marks.

Obesity is regarded a global public health crisis. It has been implicated in variety of problems, but when it comes to male fertility, how and what extent obesity affects are poorly understood. Accordingly, semen samples from 32 individuals with (body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m2) normal weight (BMI: 18.5-25 were obtained. Here, for the first time, we examined association between obesity, relative sperm telomere length (STL) autophagy-related mRNA levels such as Beclin1, AMPKa1, ULK1, BAX, BCL2. Each group was also evaluated conventional parameters, apoptotic changes, DNA fragmentation (DFI), chromatin maturation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels.Based on our findings, there marked reduction STL compared normal-weight group. We found significant negative correlation age, BMI, DFI, percentage immature chromatin, intracellular ROS patients obesity. In group, only negatively correlated DFI levels. Regarding expression, considerable upregulation BCL2 be associated decline volume, total count, progressive motility, viability comparison individuals. Furthermore, considerably higher percentages late-stage apoptosis, elevated levels.According shortening aberrant expression. should emphasized that may an indirect consequence due oxidative stress condition. Nevertheless, further investigation required more comprehensive understanding.RéSUMé: CONTEXTE: L’obésité est considérée comme une crise mondiale de santé publique. Elle été impliquée dans divers problèmes ; mais quand il s’agit la fertilité masculine, comment et quelle mesure l’obésité affecte cette restent mal compris.

Background Sperm quality, including semen volume, sperm count, concentration, and total progressive motility (collectively, “semen parameters”), has declined in the recent decades. Computer-assisted analysis (CASA) provides kinematic parameters, temporal trends of which remain unclear. Our objective is to examine trend both parameters Shanghai, China, years. Methods This retrospective study analyzed 49,819 men attending our reproductive center by using CASA during 2015–2021. The sample was divided into two groups: samples that surpassed WHO guideline (2010) low reference limits (“above limit” group, ARL; n = 24,575) did not (“below BRL; 24,614). One-way variance, Kruskal–Wallis test, independent t -test, covariance were used assess differences among groups. Year, age, abstinence time included multiple linear regression model ARL group adjust confounders depict quality. Results Among all BRL groups, age subjects increased Semen volume count showed tendency with years sample, subgroup or time, whereas velocities on contrary. adjusting for confirmed these trends.
