Sperm retrieval techniques for assisted reproduction.
Different surgical methods such as PESA, MESA, TESA, TESE and micro-TESE have been developed to retrieve spermatozoa from either the epididymis or the testis according to the type of azoospermia, i.e., obstructive or non-obstructive. Laboratory techniques are used to remove contaminants, cellular debris, and red blood cells following collection of the epididymal fluid or testicular tissue. Surg...

متن کاملReactive oxygen species and sperm physiology.
Although high concentrations of reactive oxygen species (ROS) cause sperm pathology (ATP depletion leading to insufficient axonemal phosphorylation, lipid peroxidation and loss of motility and viability), recent evidence demonstrates that low and controlled concentrations of these ROS play an important role in sperm physiology. Reactive oxygen species, such as the superoxide anion, hydrogen per...
متن کاملReactive oxygen species and sperm cells
There is a dynamic interplay between pro- and anti-oxidant substances in human ejaculate. Excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation can overwhelm protective mechanism and initiate changes in lipid and/or protein layers of sperm plasma membranes. Additionally, changes in DNA can be induced. The essential steps of lipid peroxidation have been listed as well as antioxidant substances of s...
متن کاملP-122: Sperm Intracellular Reactive Oxygen Species Incidence in Ram Fed A Diet with Fish Oil
Background: Basal level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is essential for sperm acrosomal reaction, hyperactivation, motility, capacitation and fertilization. Ram spermatozoa contain large quantities of polyunsaturated fatty acids in their plasma membranes so are extremely susceptible to ROS induced damage. Materials and Methods: Eight rams (36 ± 5 month of age and with a weight of 64 ± 7 kg) w...
