In recent years, a number of studies focused on the role of epigenetics, including DNA
methylation, in spermatogenesis and male infertility. We aimed to provide an overview of the …

Obesity is a growing epidemic and a common problem among reproductive-age men that
can both cause and exacerbate male-factor infertility by means of endocrine abnormalities …

Cadmium is an environmental pollutant known as endocrine disruptor. Testis is particularly
susceptible to cadmium, and testis injury occurs at high but even low levels of exposure …

Both human and animal studies indicate that environmental exposures experienced during
early life can robustly influence risk for adult disease. Moreover, environmental exposures …

Epigenetic inheritance and its underlying molecular mechanisms are among the most
intriguing areas of current biological and medical research. To date, studies have shown that …

BACKGROUND Increasing numbers of children are being conceived by assisted
reproductive technology (ART). A number of studies have highlighted an altered epigenetic …

Purpose Advancing maternal and paternal age leads to a decrease in fertility, and hence,
many infertile couples opt for assisted reproductive technologies [ART] to achieve biological …

The correlation between epigenetics and human reproduction represents a very interesting
field of study, mainly due to the possible transgenerational effects related to epigenetic …

Epigenetic modifications characterized by DNA methylation, histone modifications, and
chromatin remodeling are important regulators in a number of biological processes …

Background Infertility is a common reproductive disorder, with male factor infertility
accounting for approximately half of all cases. Taking a paternal perceptive, recent research …
