Crucial role of estrogen for the mammalian female in regulating semen coagulation and liquefaction in vivo
Our study demonstrates that estrogen/ESR1 signaling in the female reproductive tract plays an indispensable role in normal semen liquefaction, providing fundamental evidence that exposure of post-ejaculated semen to the suboptimal microenvironment in the female reproductive tract leads to faulty liquefaction and subsequently causes a fertility defect.
Male infertility linked to mortality, study shows (2014 study)
Men who are infertile because of defects in their semen appear to be at increased risk of dying sooner than men with normal semen, according to a study. Men with two or more abnormalities in their semen were more than twice as likely to die over a roughly eight-year period as men who had normal semen, the study found.
Semen quality, infertility and mortality in the USA
Men with impaired semen parameters have an increased mortality rate in the years following an infertility evaluation suggesting semen quality may provide a marker of health.
Perinatal outcomes in multifetal pregnancy following fetal reduction
Fetal reduction to twins and singletons was not associated with a decreased risk of serious neonatal morbidity or perinatal death. However, such fetal reduction was associated with substantial improvements in several other perinatal outcomes, such as preterm birth and low birth weight. Clinicians discussing the risks associated with multifetal pregnancy should counsel parents on the potential risks and benefits of fetal reduction.
Comprehensive chromosome screening and gene expression analysis from the same biopsy in human preimplantation embryos
This is the first time that CCS and gene expression analysis have been performed on the same human preimplantation embryo biopsy. Further optimization of this protocol with other CCS platforms and inclusion of more target genes will provide innumerable research and clinical applications, such as discovery of biomarkers for embryonic reproductive potential and characterization of the transcriptomic signatures of embryos, potentially allowing for f
Long-term breast cancer risk following ovarian stimulation in young egg donors: a call for follow-up, research and informed consent
Long-term hormone replacement therapy is recognized as a risk factor for breast cancer: the breast cancer risk of ovarian stimulation for egg donors is unknown but is a possibility. This commentary describes five individual cases of egg donors who developed breast cancer (four out of five women in their 30s) despite negative genetic testing results
In the commentary, Dr. Jennifer Schneider and her colleagues document five case histories of women in the US who were egg donors and then later developed breast cancer. Currently there are no registries of egg donors in the UK or in the US, and there are only a few long-term follow up studies on egg donors who have received fertility drugs to help others. This lack of data means that it is difficult to draw a firm conclusion on the effect that fe
Fetal reduction in multifetal pregnancies associated with better birth outcomes
Among twin and triplet pregnancies that were reduced to singleton or twin pregnancies, there was a substantial reduction in complications such as preterm birth and very preterm birth, according to new research published in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal).
Irvine Scientific Develops a Novel Bioassay to Improve Detection of Suboptimal Quality and Toxicity in IVF Components and Media
Irvine Scientific, a world leader in the development and manufacture of cell culture media and Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART), today announced the implementation of MEGA™, a new mouse embryo assay that measures gene expression, to its quality control testing of raw materials used for the manufacture of media for in vitro fertilization (IVF). In studies, MEGA demonstrated increased ability to detect embryotoxic materials that could adver
