The articles in this special issue highlight the diversity and complexity of research into reproductive health, including the need for a better understanding of the fundamental biology of reproduction ...

Scientists at deCODE genetics have unveiled a groundbreaking map of human DNA mixing during reproduction, offering insights into genetic diversity, health, and fertility. Credit: SciTechDaily.com ...

Comparison of that ancient DNA with modern human DNA showed that the two species had interbred and that people today still carry the genetic fingerprint of that intermixing. Since then ...

Of course, though, testing a child's parentage based on physical features is far too subjective — that's typically where DNA tests come in. Such tests can offer a far more scientific way of ...

Moreover, the physiological process of testicular development and spermatogenesis in male animals is intricately tied to the secretory activities of SCs. These cells secrete a diverse array of ...

This manuscript reports useful data suggesting a critical role of two cyclin-dependent kinases, CDK8 and CDK19, in spermatogenesis. However ... These genes were related to chromosome pairing, DNA ...

While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells' in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows.
