relationship between potential sperm factors involved in oocyte activation and sperm dna fragmentation with intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection clinical outcomes

چکیده
objective: the present study aimed to simultaneously evaluate the association between expression of three potential factors [post-acrosomal sheath ww domain-binding protein (pawp), phospholipase cζ (plcζ), and truncated form of the kit receptor (tr-kit)] as candidates of oocyte activation with fertilization rate and early embryonic development. materials and methods: in this experimental study, semen samples were collected from 35 intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi) candidates and analyzed according to world health organization criteria (2010). each sample was divided into two parts. the first part was processed for insemination by density-gradient centrifugation (dgc) and the second part was prepared for assessment of sperm morphology (papanicolaou staining), dna fragmentation [transferase dutp nick end labeling (tunel)], and three sperm-borne oocyte-activating factor (s) (soafs)-plcζ, pawp, and tr-kit. results: significant positive correlations existed between the percentages of plcζ, pawp, and tr-kit with fertilization rate. in addition, significant negative correlations existed between the percentage of dna fragmentation with the percentages of plcζ and pawp. we did not find a relationship between percentages of plcζ, pawp, and tr-kit with embryo quality and pregnancy rate (p>0.05). there was a significant negative correlation between percentage of dna fragmentation with fertilization and embryo quality. conclusion: oocyte activation was associated with the studied sperm factors (pawp, plcζ, and tr-kit). these factors might hold the potential to be considered as diagnostic factors in the assessment of semen samples to evaluate their potential to induce oocyte activation. in addition, we observed a significant association between dna fragmentation with fertilization, as well as embryo quality and expression of pawp and plcζ, which indicated that men with high degrees of dna fragmentation might require artificial oocyte activation. whether such action should take place, and its cost and benefits should be evaluated in the future.

متن کاملP-56: Artificial Oocyte Activation Alone Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection in Men with Severe Semen Parameters
Background Failed fertilization occurs 1-3% in the infertile couples. Failure of oocyte activation (OA) is mainly attributed to failed fertilization. ICSI alone artificial oocyte activation (AOA) is only treatment approach for these individuals. Three procedures are introduced for AOA: chemical, mechanical and electrical. Most of the clinical Centers have commonly used ionomycin for activation ...

OBJECTIVE Melatonin, the chief secretory product of the pineal gland, regulates dynamic physiological adaptations that occur in seasonally breeding mammals as a response to changes in daylight hours. Because of the presence of melatonin in semen and the mem- brane melatonin receptor in spermatozoa, the impact of melatonin on the regulation of male infertility is still questionable. The aim of t...

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) has increased the potential of the assisted reproductive technologies to propagate mammalian species and has provided an opportunity for research into cell cycle control and the mechanisms involved in sperm-induced oocyte activation. We have investigated the efficacy of ICSI in the rhesus monkey, the mechanism of fertilization following sperm injection an...
