As males age, their reproductive success typically declines. A study on fruit flies, led by University of Oxford researchers, has found that while old males do produce fewer offspring than young males ...

Researchers have come a step closer to understanding how gonorrhea infections are transmitted. When Neisseria gonorrhoeae, the bacteria responsible for gonorrhea, are exposed to seminal plasma, the ...

More than 80 new proteins, thought to play a role in reproductive success, have been discovered in the seminal fluid of fruit flies. Seminal fluid contains protein factors that, when transferred from ...

Changes in EAE-associated gene expression were estimated during the peak of the disease (day 14 after EAE immunization). Because EAE is a T cell-mediated disease, we investigated the changes in IFN-γ, ...

(Medical Xpress)—Improved diagnosis and management of one of the most common cancers in men - prostate cancer - could result from research at the University of Adelaide, which has discovered that ...

For male fruit flies, sperm is not enough in the battle to reproduce – at each mating a cocktail of proteins is transferred to the female, many of which directly influence female behaviours in ways ...

Most of us remember that awkward class in school. It all starts with “when a man and a woman decide to make a baby…” and ends with some variation on birth control methods. Somewhere along the line, ...

As males age, their reproductive success typically declines. A study on fruit flies, led by University of Oxford researchers, has found that while old males do produce fewer offspring than young males ...

The seminal vesicles are a pair of sac-like glands that can be found within the male pelvis. They’re responsible for producing the majority of the components that make up semen. Read on to learn more ...

A man’s seminal fluid, not just his sperm, plays a critical role in the conception, development and future health of a child. Researchers have studied the complex interaction between male seminal ...

Production of foreign proteins in the tissues of transgenic animals represents an efficient and economical method of producing therapeutic and pharmaceutical proteins. In this study, we demonstrate ...
