13. Preparation of infertile male rabbits by local electron beam irradiation for intratesticular transplantation of autologous bone marrow stem cells
PURPOSE: To explore an efficient and safe protocol for the preparation of infertile male rabbits from which bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) could be isolated and cultured. METHODS: Autologous BMSCs could be used for intratesticular transplantation and male infertility research. For this model, various doses (e.g., 6, 8, 10, or 12 Gy) of electron beam irradiat

14. Biotechnological approaches to the treatment of aspermatogenic men
Aspermatogenesis is a severe impairment of spermatogenesis in which germ cells are completely lacking or present in an immature form, which results in sterility in approximately 25% of patients. Because assisted reproduction techniques require mature germ cells, biotechnology is a valuable tool for rescuing fertility while maintaining biological fatherhood.

15. Morfofisiologia do sistema genital masculino de ratos púberes e adultos após privação androgênica durante a pré-puberdade / Morphophysiology of male reproductive system of adult and pubertal rats after androgen deprivation during prepuberty
Endocrine disrupters are chemicals that can act as agonists or antagonists of endogenous hormones, interfering with the homeostasis of the organism. Since the endocrine system plays a critical role in the development and function of the male reproductive system, this is an especially vulnerable target of potential endocrine perturbations. The literature pres

16. Ações da epitestosterona através de um mecanismo de membrana em células de Sertoli : implicações no desenvolvimento sexual
Introduction: Epitestosterone is the 17¿-epimer of testosterone. It seems to possess an antiandrogenic activity, as well as a neuroprotective effect. The mechanism of action of epitestosterone has not been elucidated. Objective: The aim of this work is to investigate the non-classical effect of epitestosterone on the membrane of Sertoli cells from testis of

17. Vias de sinalização intracelular envolvidas no efeito proliferativo de relaxina em células de sertoli / Intracelular signaling pathways involved in the proliferative effect of relaxin in rat Sertoli cells
Relaxin is an insulin-related peptide that activates the G-protein coupled receptor RXFP1. Although relaxin plays an important role in female reproduction its physiological role in the male reproductive system is still unclear. We have previously demonstrated that relaxin and RXFP1 are expressed in testis (FILONZI et al., 2007; CARDOSO et al., 2010). Both re

18. Dosagem hormonal e avaliação testicular em cachorro-do-mato (Cerdocyun thous) utilizando diferentes protocolos anestésicos
Tree Cerdocyon thous males received different anesthesia protocols: tiletamine-zolazepan (7mg/kg); ketamine-xylazine (12 and 1mg/kg); ketamine-xylazine-atropin (12, 1.0 and 0.04mg/kg), ketamine-midazolam (12 and 0.5mg/kg) and ketamine-acepromazine (12 and 0.1mg/kg) for semen collection by electroejaculation, testosterone hormonal dosages, fine needle aspirat

19. Papel dos canais K+ATP na resposta eletrofisiológica ao FSH e ao isoproterenol em células de Sertoli
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) produces a dual effect on the membrane potential of Sertoli cells, with an initial rapid phase, which comprises a hyperpolarization for a period of seconds and a depolarization phase, wich occurs more slowly, within minutes. The depolarization phase involves calcium entry stimulated by FSH. Isoproterenol, an agonist of ¿-a

20. Restrição protéica in utero : desenvolvimento sexual e histofisiologia do sistema reprodutivo de ratos machos / In utero protein restrition : sexual development and histophysiology of the rat male reproductive tract
In the past few years the worldwide recognition of the relevance of nutrition as a basis for social and economic development has been growing. In developing countries such as Brazil undernutrition is a socioeconomic problem caused by poor nutrition and low income. The birth of children with low birth weight is considered an important public health problem, w

21. Effect of FSH and insulin on lipogenesis in cultures of Sertoli cells from immature rats
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and insulin regulate glycide metabolism in Sertoli cells, thus stimulating lactate production. These stimulatory effects of FSH and insulin do not require protein synthesis, suggesting a modulation of enzyme activity and/or regulation of glucose transport. The present investigation was performed to characterize the hormonal

22. Ectonucleotidase activities in Sertoli cells from immature rats
Sertoli cells have been shown to be targets for extracellular purines such as ATP and adenosine. These purines evoke responses in Sertoli cells through two subtypes of purinoreceptors, P2Y2 and PA1. The signals to purinoreceptors are usually terminated by the action of ectonucleotidases. To demonstrate these enzymatic activities, we cultured rat Sertoli cell

23. Localization of acid phosphatase activity on the testis of two teleostean species (Oreochromis niloticus and Odonthestes perugiae) / Localização da atividade da fosfatase ácida em duas espécies de teleósteos (Oreochromis niloticus e Odonthestes perugiae)
A atividade da fosfatase ácida (AcP) foi estudada em duas espécies de teleósteos em duas estações: verão e inverno. A atividade AcP foi detectada em células de Sertoli de tilápia (Oreochromis niloticus) somente durante o período não reprodutivo de seu ciclo anual, que corresponde aos meses de inverno. Em peixerei (Odonthestes perugiae), a reação

24. Retinol-induced changes in the phosphorylation levels of histones and high mobility group proteins from sertoli cells
Chromatin proteins play a role in the organization and functions of DNA. Covalent modifications of nuclear proteins modulate their interactions with DNA sequences and are probably one of the multiple factors involved in the process of switch on/off transcriptionally active regions of DNA. Histones and high mobility group proteins (HMG) are subject to many co
