Identifying specific metabolites and microbial taxa linked to this condition could improve diagnostics and management for male infertility. This study analyzed semen samples from 231 patients, including 30 patients with teratozoospermia and 30 patients with normal sperm morphology, collected over four seasons in Chongqing, China. Metabolomic profiling by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and microbiota composition analysis via 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) sequencing revealed distinct seasonal metabolomic shifts, with significant changes in summer and autumn. After excluding seasonally affected metabolites, 14 key metabolites were associated with teratozoospermia, including reduced levels of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid, phenylpyruvic acid, and N-acetyl-L-aspartic acid. These metabolites are involved in pathways related to oxidative stress and energy metabolism in spermatozoa, suggesting that their depletion may contribute to sperm abnormalities. Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, and Actinobacteriota were predominant phyla across all seasons and groups, but significant genus-level fluctuations, such as Acinetobacter and Staphylococcus, were observed. In teratozoospermia, genera such as Lactobacillus and Limnochordaceae showed differential abundance, correlating with key metabolites and suggesting potential functional interactions. Limnochordaceae showed a significant positive correlation with undecanoic acid, whereas Lactobacillus showed a negative correlation. These findings highlight that while seasonal changes significantly influence semen metabolomics and microbiota composition, teratozoospermia is characterized by specific, season-independent metabolic and microbial signatures.

This study evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of Rb1 in a rodent streptozotocin-induced DMED model. Thirty-two rats were randomly assigned to three groups: control group, DMED group, and DMED + Rb1 group. DMED was induced in male rats via an intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin.

Moreover, high TRIM26 levels predicted a poor prognosis in patients with PCa. Ectopic overexpression of TRIM26 increased PCa cell proliferation and migration, and this activity was suppressed by TRIM26 knockdown. Notably, TRIM26 activated both protein kinase B (AKT)/mammalian target of the rapamycin (mTOR) and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) signaling pathways in PCa cells. Consistent with these findings, TRIM26 knockdown led to decreased activation of these signals. Furthermore, the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway activated by TRIM26 was attenuated by the PI3K inhibitor S14161.
