Gene mapping of sperm quality parameters in recombinant inbred strains of mice.
The aim of this study was to map chromosomal regions containing hypothetical genes responsible for the following parameters of mouse semen quality: (1) the percentage of sperm with abnormal head morphology, (2) the level of dead spermatozoa, (3) the percentage of sperm tails with residual cytoplasmic droplets, and (4) the percentage of sperm with impaired sperm tail membrane integrity. We also ...
متن کاملSperm mitochondria diaphorase activity--a gene mapping study of recombinant inbred strains of mice.
In order to study the genetic control of semen quality parameters, we derived a set of recombinant inbred (RI) mice from crosses between two inbred strains, KE and CBA/Kw, which differ significantly in gamete quality and fertility parameters. In this work, we used male mice from the two parental strains and from ten RI strains to map genes controlling quantitative traits such as sperm mitochond...
متن کاملEffect of Long Term-Administration of Aspartame on Sperm Quality, Testosterone and Oxidant Parameters in Mice
Introduction: Aspartame is the most famous and widely used artificial sweetener which is extensively used in food stuffs. Many controversial reports are presented on the toxisity of aspartame on different body tissues; nonetheles, little data is available about the the side effects of Aspartame on the reproductive system. The present study was conducted in order to evaluate the effects of aspar...
متن کاملP-61: Effects of Acrylamid on Sperm Parameters and Chromatin Quality in Mice
Background: Acrylamid (AA) is found in carbohydraterich foods that are prepared at high temperatures, such as French fries and potato chips. The toxic effects of AA in male animals include degeneration of epithelial cells of seminiferous tubules, decreased number of sperm and elevation in abnormal spermatozoa. The aim of this study was to evaluate the detrimental effects of AA on sperm paramete...
متن کاملP-12: The Improvement of Sperm Parameters and Chromatin Quality by Vitamin E Supplement in Mice
Background: Vitamin E is believed to be the primary component of the antioxidant system in spermatozoa. There is a relationship between activity of these antioxidant and function of sperm. Vitamins E and C which are belong to non-enzymatic antioxidant are used as a supplemented drug to improve sperm quality and male fertility. The present study was carried out to investigate the positive effect...
