“…Male birds appear to contribute more than females to HS infertility, and high temperatures have a greater impact on semen quality and fertility in those males with a better sperm quality index (Karaca et al, 2002).…”

“…The availability of the chicken reference genome sequence provides an opportunity for detailed analysis of stress resistant genes through their transcriptome 14 . Multiple reports confirm that even mild change (32-35 °C) in environmental temperature may negatively affect fertility in chicken [15][16][17] .…”

Transcriptome expression reflects genetic response in diverse conditions. In this study, RNA sequencing was utilized to profile multiple tissues such as liver, breast, caecum, and gizzard of Korean commercial chicken raised in Korea and Kyrgyzstan. We analyzed ten samples per tissue from each location to identify candidate genes which are involved in the adaptation of Korean commercial chicken to Kyrgyzstan. At false discovery rate (FDR) < 0.05 and fold change (FC) > 2, we found 315, 196, 167 and 198 genes in liver, breast, cecum, and gizzard respectively as differentially expressed between the two locations. GO enrichment analysis showed that these genes were highly enriched for cellular and metabolic processes, catalytic activity, and biological regulations. Similarly, KEGG pathways analysis indicated metabolic, PPAR signaling, FoxO, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, biosynthesis, MAPK signaling, CAMs, citrate cycles pathways were differentially enriched. Enriched genes like TSKU, VTG1, SGK, CDK2 etc. in these pathways might be involved in acclimation of organisms into diverse climatic conditions. The qRT-PCR result also corroborated the RNA-Seq findings with R2 of 0.76, 0.80, 0.81, and 0.93 for liver, breast, caecum, and gizzard respectively. Our findings can improve the understanding of environmental acclimation process in chicken.

“…An experimental study on broiler breeders was carried out: the sperm quality index (SQI) of subjects with normal semen parameters had been reduced after exposure to constant high temperatures, concomitant with a higher percentage of dead sperm, while the heat stress does not cause further deterioration in cases with poor SQI (64). Always Karaca et al showed that the SQI decreases after a mix of control sperm with the seminal plasma (SP) of cases exposed to T of 32°C, while the sperm of the exposed combined with the SP of healthy subjects determined lower levels of Calcium (Ca), with the consequent decrease in sperm motility, and lower fertility (65). Only four papers on heat exposure were recently published.…”

Background: A decrease in semen quality is an increasingly widespread pathological condition worldwide. Jobs and lifestyles have changed a lot with the advancement of technology in the last few decades, and a new series of risk factors for male infertility have spread. Objective: This review aims to summarize the current literature on this relationship, evaluating alterations in semen parameters and hormonal proﬁle. Methods: A deep research was performed through MEDLINE via PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science on articles regarding the relationship between physical agents and male fertility over the last twenty years. Some physical agents already associated with male infertility, such as heat and radiation, while emerging ones, such as physical exertion, psychological stress and seden-tary activities, were newly considered.Results: Most studies described sperm quality after exposure. Overall sperm impairment was shown after radiation and alter-ation of speciﬁc parameters, such as sperm concentration, were observed after psychological stress and sedentary work. In addi-tion, an association was also reported between physical exertion and hormonal proﬁle, especially pituitary hormones and testos-terone.Conclusions: Although the associations between physical agents and male infertility are suggestive, the level of evidence of the studies is not adequate to deﬁne their inﬂuence, except for phys-ical exertion. Therefore, new prospective studies are necessary for the validation of the correlation and the possible safeguard-ing of the exposed working classes.
