What is mediastinal seminoma? What this rare chest cancer means and how treatment works with high survival rates.

Research into how a father’s choices — such as diet, exercise, stress, nicotine use — may transfer traits to his children has become impossible to ignore. The standard sperm-meets-egg story posits ...

Introduction Since general improvements in the prognosis of cancer patients have been achieved through advances in surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, subsequent infertility in adolescents and ...

Scientists have identified a protein that may be key to proper sperm formation. Without it, male mice produced no viable sperm, they found. A team at the RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research ...

A new dual-light microscope lets researchers observe micro- and nanoscale activity inside living cells without using dyes. The system captures both detailed structures and tiny moving particles at ...

Groundbreaking research shows that as men age, harmful genetic mutations in sperm become more common—not just from random chance, but because some are naturally favored. Advanced sequencing revealed ...

The risk of older fathers passing on disease-causing mutations to their children is higher than we thought. Genome sequencing has revealed that among men in their early thirties, around 1 in 50 sperm ...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Oregon scientists used human skin cells to create fertilizable eggs, a step in the quest to develop lab-grown eggs or sperm to one day help people conceive. But the experiment ...
