Cross-omics association of small extracellular vesicle miRNAs and metabolites in seminal plasma of idiopathic male infertility

Background Idiopathic male infertility (IMI) accounts for 30%–40% of male infertility cases, yet the molecular networks associated with seminal plasma dysfunction and non-invasive biomarkers remain largely unclear. This study aimed to preliminarily explore the transcriptomic and metabolomic alterations in IMI seminal p...

Metabolomic Markers in the Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Treatment of Female Infertility: Current Approaches

Background: Female infertility is a multifactorial condition with significant medical and social implications. Despite advances in the diagnosis and treatment of infertility, reliable biomarkers for early detection and selection of personalized therapy remain limited. Objective: To evaluate the role of metabolomic b...

Seminal dysbiosis in idiopathic male infertility: toward a seminal dysbiosis–inflammatory/oxidative endophenotype–SDF axis

Idiopathic male infertility (IMI) usually refers to abnormal semen parameters after known causes have been excluded. However, its clinical stratification and intervention evidence remain difficult to reconcile. Based on low biomass in semen, this review proposes an SD–IO–SDF axis linking seminal dysbiosis (SD), inflamm...

Genetic Aspects of Reproductive Function Disorders in Men with Impaired Semen Parameters

Background: Male infertility is a pressing clinical and social issue, affecting approximately 30–50% of infertile couples. Despite extensive research, the etiology remains unknown in a considerable proportion of cases, underscoring the need for molecular genetic investigations into spermatogenesis disorders. Methods: t...
