Bioenergetics of human spermatozoa in patients with testicular germ cell tumours
1 Jan 2025
Abstract excerpt
In patients with testicular germ cell tumours (TGCT), sperm cryopreservation prior to anti-cancer treatment represents the main fertility preservation approach. However, it is associated with a low sperm recovery rate after thawing. Since sperm is a high-energy demanding cell, which is supplied by glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), mitochondrial dysfunctionality can directly result in sperm...
