Inositol activity in oligoasthenoteratospermia An in vitro study
Background: Oligoasthenoteratospermia, a reduction in motilty and number of spermatozoa and a change in their morphology, is one of the most relevant causes of infertility in men. One of the factors, which may influence male infertility is linked to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by morphologically altered spermatozoa. Spermatozoa are more susceptible than […]
Melatonina e sistema riproduttivo maschile

II fenomeno è particolarmente importante […]

Myo-inositol in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome: A novel method for ovulation induction
Background. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is often characterized by chronic oligo- or anovulation (usually manifested as oligo- or amenorrhea), and hyperandrogenism. In addition, 30–40% of PCOS women have impaired glucose tolerance, and a defect in the insulin signaling pathway (inositol-containing phosphoglycan mediators) seems to be implicated in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance. PCOS patients are […]
