Male infertility affects a significant portion of the global population, contributing to nearly half all cases. Common underlying causes include disruptions in spermatogenesis, hormonal imbalances, and genetic anomalies. Traditional treatments, such as hormone therapy, surgical interventions, assisted reproductive technologies, often exhibit limited efficacy due their invasive nature, systemic side effects, high financial costs. This study explores nanomedicine’s potential targeted approach address these limitations, particularly through advanced nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems aimed at enhancing sperm function improving fertility outcomes. Various types nanoparticles, including liposomes, polymer-based metal are assessed for abilities deliver therapeutic agents directly spermatogenic cells support testes. By modulating critical cellular pathways necessary production survival, nanoparticles offer enhanced effects with minimized exposure. Additionally, highlights nanoparticle applications personalized medicine, allowing tailored treatment approaches based on individual profiles. Although further clinical trials needed confirm safety, therapies promising path forward minimally invasive, male infertility.

Abstract Thrombotic cardiovascular diseases are a prevalent factor contributing to both physical impairment and mortality. Thrombolysis ischemic mitigation have emerged as leading contemporary therapeutic approaches for addressing the consequences of injury reperfusion damage. Herein, an innovative cellular-cloaked spermatozoon-driven microcellular submarine (SPCS), comprised multimodal motifs, was designed integrate nano-assembly thrombolytics with immunomodulatory ability derived from innate magnetic hyperthermia. Rheotaxis-based navigation utilized home cross clot barrier, finally accumulate in vascular organs, where thrombolytic motif “switched-on” by action thrombus red blood cell-driven In murine model, SPCS system combining hyperthermia demonstrated capacity augment delivery efficacy, produce nanotherapeutic outcomes, exhibit potent activity, ameliorate tissue These findings underscore multifaceted potential our approach, offering ischemia-mitigating effects. Given its extended effects thrombus-targeting capability, this biocompatible holds promise agent enhancing efficacy preventing risks after managing thrombosis. Graphical abstract
