Research Description

 

A leading cause of increased male infertility worldwide is degeneration of sperm quality mainly in the aspects of sperm amounts and functions. ROS, such as superoxide anions, hydroxyl radicals, and hydrogen peroxide, are free radicals and have been shown to influence the structural integrity of spermatozoa and their functions, including motility, capacitation, and sperm–oocyte fusion. Once the fine balance needed to maintain the optimal level of ROS controlled by antioxidant factors in secretions of the male reproductive system is lost, then the sperm may experience oxidative stress with resulting sperm dysfunction, even oxidative DNA damage and apoptosis, which eventually leads to male infertility. To date, patients with sperm quality degeneration, such as amounts and functions, have more possibilities for therapy.
