The interaction between parasite and host is characterized by a high degree of complexity, with both parties continuously adapting to changes in the other. The successful host invasion is largely attributable to the evasion strategies employed by parasites to ensure their survival in immunocompetent individuals. In turn, the host's defense mechanisms utilize a variety of structures and processes, ranging from primary barriers to the most sophisticated ones, to counter the parasite attack. Acting as an early line of defense, the immune system includes a variety of cell types that are capable of recognizing, destroying, and eliminating infectious agents. Undoubtedly, the orchestration of first-line innate immune responses but also adaptive immunity processes during infection depends to a large extent on the involvement of tissue-resident mast cells (MCs). MCs are capable of supporting immune reactions to parasites through a broad spectrum of processes, including degranulation, synthesis and release of cytokines/chemokines and other mediators, and the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). They may also be involved in immune cell recruitment, phagocytosis, and the provision of extracellular DNA traps. Despite the well documented association of MCs with antibacterial and antiviral defense, their role in host protection against parasites remains incompletely identified. This article provides an overview of the engagement of MCs in host defense mechanisms developed during parasitic infections. Furthermore, it considers the impact of parasites or parasite-derived molecules on the various aspects of MC activity.</p>","PeriodicalId":9845,"journal":{"name":"Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry","volume":"59 5","pages":"631-651"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145231495","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Migrasome biogenesis is a complex, multi-step process tightly regulated by lipid composition, tetraspanin-enriched microdomains, and molecular pathways involving sphingomyelin synthase 2, Rab35, and integrins.

This review discusses the multifactorial aspects contributing to male infertility, focusing on oxidative stress (OS), sperm quality, gut microbiota, and the potential role of adaptogens. A comprehensive literature search was conducted across several major databases, including the Cochrane Library, Medline, Embase, SciSearch, PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar. The findings from the studies included in the databases highlight the significant role of oxidative stress in male infertility, with reactive oxygen species (ROS) contributing to sperm DNA fragmentation and impairment of spermatogenesis. The review further elucidates the influence of both endogenous and exogenous sources of ROS, including lifestyle factors and environmental exposures, on male reproductive health. Emerging research also highlights the involvement of key molecular pathways, such as Nrf2, AMPK/PGC-1α, and NF-κB, in regulating OS within the male reproductive system. Additionally, the review outlines the relationship between endothelial dysfunction, cardiovascular health, and male infertility, identifying OS as a common underlying factor. In addition to the OS, the gut microbiota has been identified as a pivotal factor in male fertility, influencing inflammation and hormonal regulation. This review underscores the potential merits of a synergistic strategy that integrates dietary interventions, antioxidants, gut microbiota modulation, and adaptogens to enhance fertility outcomes. Adaptogens, recognised for their capacity to assist the body in coping with stress and re-establishing equilibrium, may confer protective effects against OS and improve reproductive health.
