Immunoendocrine regulation of energy homeostasis and male reproduction

Male reproduction and its intricate neuroimmunoendocrine regulations open a wide scope of scientific interventions. Male infertility, being responsible for about half of the overall global infertility cases, represents a complex pathophysiological mechanism. Crosstalk among the endogenous immune and endocrine mediators may affect male gonadal functions. Since male reproduction is fine-tuned by orchestrated regulation of reproductive hormones and immune regulators, a better understanding of these chemical regulations will potentiate further research in this direction.

This issue aims to summarize the current knowledge on the hormonal and immunological regulations of male reproductive functions in physiological and pathophysiological conditions of male reproduction.

Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:

  • Energy homeostasis  and male reproduction
  • Immunoendocrine regulation of male reproductive functions
  • Adipokines and energy metabolism in male fertility
  • Obesity and male infertility: energy imbalance to inflammation
  • Endocrine regulation of epigenetics of reproductive tract inflammation
  • Altered energy metabolism and immune regulation in aged men

Abstract

Selected novel β-lactam and thiazolidinone derivatives have been synthesized by the reaction of 4-methyl-1H-isochromen-1-one with 1,1-biphenyl-4,4-diamine, followed by the reaction with substituted benzaldehyde and further by the reaction with chloroacetyl chloride (for β-lactam type) and with thioglycolic acid (for thiazolidinone type) respectively . All the compounds were characterised by 1H NMR, IR and mass spectroscopy. These compounds were screened for in-vitro antimicrobial activity against Staphylococus aureus, E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain. Some compounds have shown very good efficacy against antibacterial strain.
