Ethyl acetate extract of Tibetan medicine Rhamnella gilgitica ameliorated type II collagen-induced arthritis in rats via regulating JAK-STAT signaling pathway

Jinsong Su et al.

Summary: The study aimed to explore the anti-rheumatoid arthritis (RA) effect and mechanism of Rhamnella gilgitica extract on collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) in rats. Results showed that RGEA promoted apoptosis, inhibited inflammation, and regulated the JAK-STAT pathway, contributing to its anti-RA effect.

Male infertility

Ashok Agarwal et al.

Summary: Infertility affects 8-12% of couples globally, with male factors contributing to around 50%. The causes of male infertility are diverse, requiring thorough evaluation to identify treatable or reversible factors. Semen analysis is key for evaluation, while advanced tests have been developed to investigate sperm quality and function.

Lycopene is superior to moringa in improving fertility markers in diet-induced obesity male rats

Sahar M. Greish et al.

Summary: In an animal model of diet-induced obesity, both Moringa and lycopene show positive effects in improving body weight, oxidative stress, and male fertility markers. Lycopene exhibits better antioxidant and anti-lipidemic effects, possibly improving male fertility parameters by attenuating oxidative stress.

Irisin alleviates obesity-related spermatogenesis dysfunction via the regulation of the AMPKα signalling pathway

Yang Mu et al.

Summary: Infertility is a common complication in obese men, and irisin can alleviate obesity-induced spermatogenesis dysfunction by activating the AMPK alpha signaling pathway, increasing testosterone levels, and inhibiting oxidative stress and apoptosis. These findings suggest that irisin may be a potential therapeutic agent against obesity-related spermatogenesis dysfunction.

Reproductive toxicity of cadmium in pubertal male rats induced by cell apoptosis

Lingna Yi et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated that exposure to Cd adversely affected the testicular morphology, testosterone levels, and apoptotic activity in spermatids in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Additionally, Cd exposure led to a decrease in antioxidant enzyme activities and an increase in lipid peroxidation in the testicular tissues. The expression levels of key genes involved in apoptosis were altered by Cd exposure, with an increase in mRNA levels of pro-apoptotic genes and no change in the expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 gene.
