effect of human sperm mtt viability test on outcome of intracytoplasmic sperm injection

چکیده
introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of human sperm mtt viability assay on outcome of intracytoplasmic sperm injection. mtt is a tetrazolium salt, routinely used for cell proliferation and cytotoxicity assays. materials and methods: 50μl of processed semen was treated with mtt solution, while the remaining used as the control. meanwhile, 109 donated human oocytes (metaphase ii) obtained from 12 patients were divided into two groups. fifty five oocytes were injected using mtt positive sperms, while 54 oocytes were injected with sperms from the control group. then the injected oocytes were cultured and observed at 18, 42, 66, 90, and 114 hours pos- icsi. finally, the fertilization and embryo development rates were compared in both groups. results: no significant differences were observed between fertilization and embryo development rates in the mtt and control groups. conclusion: in future studies after approving that the mtt has not cytotoxic or teratogenic effects, then sperm mtt viability assay might be useful for icsi in patients with absolute or severe asthenospermia or in patients with highly deformed sperm tails.

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection outcome versus intracytoplasmic morphologically selected sperm injection outcome: a meta-analysis.
The development of a modified intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), called intracytoplasmic morphologically selected sperm injection (IMSI), demonstrated that a profound morphological investigation of the spermatozoon, under the magnification of 6600 x, enables outcome improvement. The aim of this study was to compare ICSI outcome with IMSI outcome. The meta-analysis results demonstrated no ...

متن کاملIntracytoplasmic Sperm Injection
Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) is an assisted reproductive technique [4] (ART) initially developed by Dr. Gianpiero D. Palermo [5] in 1993 to treat male infertility [6]. It is most commonly used in conjunction with in vitro [7] fertilization [8] (IVF) or a less commonly used technique called zygote intrafallopian transfer [9] (ZIFT). In natural fertilization [8], the sperm [10] must pe...
متن کاملIntracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)
IVF has become a well-established treatment for certain types of infertility, including long-standing infertility due to tubal disease, endometriosis, unexplained infertility or infertility involving a male factor. Soon it became clear that certain couples with severe male-factor infertility could not be helped by conventional IVF. Extremely low sperm counts, impaired motility and/or abnormal m...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE The objective of the present study was to compare the levels of sperm centrin a centrosomal protein that influences cell migration, in normal fertile donors and in oligoasthenozoospermic males (count 5 million/ml and motility <40%, grade c+d) undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and to correlate with the outcome of ICSI. METHODS The prospective study carri...
