Abstract:
Infertility is gradually becoming a major problem affecting health worldwide, and male factors also play an important role in infertility. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are ultramicro membranous vesicles released by cells during activation or apoptosis, which play an important role in cell communication. Relevant studies have shown that extracellular vesicles contain a variety of bioactive substances and participate in infertility related pathophysiological processes by influencing the content of intercellular transmission. Therefore, we reviewed the relationship between extracellular vesicles and male infertility, and expounded the occurrence and potential treatment of male infertility from another perspective.
