SCIL - 135 | The Sperm Cell - Production, Maturation, Fertilization, Regeneration

in , , , , , / with No comments /

This revised and updated second edition provides a comprehensive account of the human male gamete.
Detailed overviews of human sperm production, maturation, and function - and how these processes affect and influence fertility, infertility, and assisted reproduction - are given.

A wide range of new developments including proteomics, spermatogenesis, sperm-specific WW domain-binding proteins, Ca2+ signalling, DNA packaging, epididymis are explored, whilst a new chapter presents information gained from mouse genetics, highlighting how it informs male fertility research. The impact of environmental factors during pre-pubertal and pubertal stages of life is also investigated.

Featuring engaging prose with chapters organized topographically, The Sperm Cell remains an essential resource for andrologists, clinical scientists, and laboratory personnel.

By: Christopher J. de Jonge (Editor), Christopher L R Barratt (Editor), Ryuzo Yanagimachi (Foreword)

SCIL - 133 | Basics of Human Andrology: A Textbook by Anand Kumar, Mona Sharma

This book addresses various aspects of male reproduction ranging from mind to testis.

The basis of maleness lies in the Y chromosome. Reproductive functions depend upon the development of male organs from embryo to manhood. Testis, the male gonad, produces hormones and sperms; the latter is ejaculated in semen secreted by accessory sex glands. The testicular events are under neuroendocrine regulation which coordinates reproductive life from puberty to andropause.

Biology is as important as psychology in the control of reproduction. Behaviours are rooted in the brain. Various brain areas and neural circuits regulate male behaviours. Brain sexual polymorphism is the basis of homosexuality and transgenders. Neurophysiology has always been complex to understand. But, this book presents it in a simpler way.

Reproductive organs receive systemic influences, too. The book describes roles of metabolic, immune and thyroid status in reproduction. The book has chapters on male reproductive pathophysiology. Principles of diagnosis and management are also included. The last section deals with contraception and yoga. The traditional wisdom of yoga has been used for millennia to enhance sexual and reproductive experience.

This book will serve basic medical scientists, urologists, nephrologists, surgeons, andrologists, endocrinologists, gynaecologists, nurses, councellors and also the students of biological sciences who want to study reproduction in human male. The language is kept simple so that an inquisitive person with a background of biology too may read it.

Napomene:
- clanovima nase biblioteke omogucen je pristup resursima Svetske elektronske biblioteke (World electronic library - WELIB), na linku WELIBRS, gde se mogu pronaci knjige na srpskom jeziku. Napominjemo da mi samo ostvarujemo saradnju sa ovom bibliotekom, a nismo njen deo.

- u jednom postu se nalazi onoliko knjiga od istog autora koliko smo ih dobili u tom trenutku - ako zelite da vidite kompletan spisak svih postavljenih knjiga istog autora na celom blogu - mozete ih pronaci putem stranice sa spiskom autora ili putem taga sa imenom autora ispod naslova odgovarajuceg posta.
