简介:AbstractObjective:It has recently been shown that the melanoma antigen gene (MAGE) family is expressed in various tumor cell lines but silent in normal tissues, except germ cell lines. Mageb4, a member of the MAGE family, is highly expressed in thetestisand homologous in humans and mice. Whole-exome sequencing studies have identified Mageb4 as a possible X-linked cause of inherited male infertility. However, the function of Mageb4 protein remains largely unknown.Methods:Using clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein (Cas) 9 technology, we generated a Mageb4 knockout mouse model (Mageb4-/Y) to explore the role of this gene in spermatogenesis.Results:First, immunostaining of testicular cells showed that Mageb4 is localized in the cytoplasm of spermatogonia. Second, Mageb4-/Y male mice displayed significant increases in apoptosis. However, Mageb4-/Y male mice showed normal fertility, including normal sperm concentration, sperm motility, and testicular and epididymal histology.Conclusions:These findings suggest that, despitetestis-exclusive expression, Mageb4 is dispensable for mouse spermatogenesis. Future research should focus on the role of this gene in apoptosis, aiming to provide clinical guidance regarding male infertility.

简介:AbstractObjective:To evaluate the effect of morphologic factors on survival rate (SR), pregnancy rate (PR), and implantation rate (IR) of human embryo vitrification following frozen embryo transfer (FET) on day 3 post-ovulation.Methods:Women undergoing FET (n = 921) with embryos cryopreserved by vitrification between 2012 and 2013 were enrolled in this retrospective cohort study.Results:Embryos with >9 blastomeres yielded the highest SR of 100%. Lower SR was observed in embryos with 5 to 6 (57.5%) and 4 blastomeres (41.4%). In terms of blastomere symmetry, the SR of embryos with equally sized blastomeres was significantly higher than that of embryos with unequally sized cells (82.5% vs. 64.6%, P < 0.05). As fragmentation increased, SR decreased from 92.1% to 20.6% (P < 0.05). Significant differences were observed among groups when analyzing PR and IR according to the 3 embryonic parameters before vitrification. Embryos with 13 to 16 blastomeres yielded the highest PR (39.5%) and IR (24.1 %). The PR and IR of embryos with blastomeres of equal size were significantly higher than those with unequally sized blastomeres (36.5% vs. 21.7%, 23.7% vs. 12.4%, P < 0.05). After warming, embryos with 13 to 16 blastomeres yielded the highest PR and IR (40.9% and 24.2%, respectively). The PR and IR were observed to grow with an increase in the percentage of intact blastomeres (23.2%-38.2%, 14.2%-23.2%).Conclusions:These results show that vitrification methods do not effectively improve survival outcomes for embryos of poor quality and it is needed to develop a comprehensive vitrification protocol that considers all the practical aspects, including the current limitation regarding cleavage-stage embryos of poor quality.

简介:AbstractObjective:There has been a significant shift from open craniofacial resection of the anterior skull base to endoscopic approaches that accomplish the same outcomes in tumor ablation. However, when open resection is required, free flap reconstruction is often necessary to provide sufficient well-vascularizedtissuefor optimal wound healing as well as providing adequatetissuebulk for cosmesis. This articleaims to providea focused review of free flaps most commonly used in anterior skull base reconstruction.Methods:This is a state-of-the-art review based on expert opinion and previously published reviews and journal articles, queried using PubMed and Google Scholar.Results & conclusion:Anterior skull base reconstruction via freetissuetransfer is imperative in limiting complications and promoting healing, particularly with large defects, post-radiation, and in at-risk patients. The type of free flap utilized for a particular anterior skull base reconstruction should be tailored to the patient and nature of the disease. This review offers insight into the numerous reconstructive options for the free flap surgeon.
