Dear Editor,rnIn the 1940s,Charles Huggins discovered that surgical castration produced remarkable palliative benefits for men with advanced prostate cancer,an effect we now understand to be mediated through depriving the androgen receptor (AR) from its l

Serum testosterone level predicts the effective time of androgen deprivation therapy in metastatic p
Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is the standard of care for patients with metastatic prostate cancer. However, whether serum testosterone levels, using a cut?off point of 50 ng dl?1, are related to the effective time of ADT in newly diagnosed prostate
Microdissection testicular extraction for a patient with transverse testicular ectopia and testicula
Dear Editor,rnTransverse testicular ectopia (TTE) is a rare condition whereby both testes migrate toward the same hemiscrotum.Most of the cases (65％) are diagnosed intraoperatively during an inguinal hernia repair;only few are diagnosed preoperatively? On

DNA fragmentation in two cytometric sperm populations: relationship with clinical and ultrasound cha
We investigated whether DNA fragmentation in two cytometric sperm populations (PIdimmer and PIbrighter) with different biological characteristics and clinical relevance is related to clinical and color-Doppler ultrasound (CDUS) parameters of the male geni
In many species, including mammals, sex determination is genetically based. The sex chromosomes that individuals carry determine sex identity. Although the genetic base of phenotypic sex is determined at the moment of fertilization, the development of tes
Vitamin D deficiency is a common health issue around the world.We therefore evaluated the associations of semen quality with both serum and seminal plasma vitamin D levels and studied the mechanisms underlying these by incubating spermatozoa with 1,25(OH)
A rare polypyrimidine tract mutation in the androgen receptor gene results in complete androgen inse
Dear Editor,rnAndrogen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) is a common 46,XYdisorder of sex development resulting from androgen resistance.AIS can be subdivided into three phenotypes according to the degree of external genital defects:complete AIS (CAIS),with ty

Semen cryopreservation is widely used in assisted reproductive technologies, but it reduces sperm quality dramatically. The aim of this study was to develop a model using basal semen quality to predict the outcome of postthaw semen parameters and improve
This Special Issue of Asian Journal of Andrology is fully dedicated to the thematic area of Varicocele,which has been one of the most controversial issues in the field of Urology,Andrology,and Reproductive Medicine.Recognized as a clinical entity for over
