2. 1. Assisted reproduction technology in men with ejaculatory dysfunction with special reference to spinal cord injury

   Author : Claes Hultling; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Background: Men afflicted by spinal cord injury (SCI), myelomeningocele (MMC) and testicular cancer (TC) with retroperitoneal lymph-node dissection (RPLND) share the problem of infertility due mainly, but not exclusively, to neurologic impairment. This problem has historically been neglected, partly due to lack of effective treatment, partly due to lack of appreciation of the importance of sexual and procreational issues for rehabilitation outcomes and quality of life.

4. 2. Selection in sperm and its consequences : Exploring haploid selection, ageing and epigenetic effects in sperm

   Author : Cosima Hermans Née Hotzy; Simone Immler; Göran Arnqvist; Mariana Wolfner; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sperm; evolution; selection; haploid selection; epigenetics; sperm-mediated effects; trans-generational effects; sperm ageing; sperm senescence;

   Abstract : Sexually reproducing eukaryotes are typically going through a biphasic life cycle with a diploid and a haploid phase. Unlike in plants where selection on haploid pollen genotypes is well established, the possibility of selection occurring in animal sperm is currently not known. READ MORE

5. 3. On osmolality and sperm function during processing for assisted reproduction

   Author : Emma Holmes; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Deep basic knowledge about sperm physiology is relevant and important to optimize the outcome of procedures used during Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) to select spermatozoa for fertilization. More specifically, this study examined osmolality changes and consequences for sperm motility and sperm selection in the laboratory. READ MORE

   Abstract : Background: Until recently the treatment options for couples with severe male factor infertility have been restricted. With the advent of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) it has now become possible to offer these couples effective treatment. READ MORE

7. 5. Antimicrobial activity of human seminal plasma and seminal plasma proteins

   Author : Anneli Edström; Infektionsmedicin; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; semenogelin; antibacterial peptides; antifungal peptides; seminal plasma; antimicrobial peptides; vaginal pH; beta-microseminoprotein; peptides;

   Abstract : Seminal plasma is semen without the spermatozoa. Human seminal plasma is a complex mixture of secretions from the sex accessory glands, mainly the seminal vesicles and the prostate. Seminal plasma has high protein content and it also contains ions, sugars and low molecular weight components. READ MORE
