Background: Busulfan is a chemotherapy drug that is widely used for cancer treatment. However, administration of busulfan to male patients with malignant diseases may cause temporary or permanent sterility. Therefore, research into drugs or Materials to reduce the side effects of busulfan on the male reproductive system is necessary. In the present study the protective effects of L-carnitine an...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of reproductive hormones in seminal plasma on the quality of the spermatozoa in men seeking infertility treatment. Of the 383 volunteers recruited, 123 had normal sperm parameters and 260 had either a single or a combination of sperm abnormalities as per WHO criteria. Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH), Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Prolactin (PRL)...

Only 2-5% of seminal fluid is composed of spermatozoa, while the rest is seminal plasma. The seminal plasma is a rich cocktail of organic and inorganic compounds including hormones, serving as a source of nutrients for sperm development and maturation, protecting them from infection and enabling them to overcome the immunological and chemical environment of the female reproductive tract. In thi...

This study evaluated the effects of chromium picolinate (CrPic) with or without vitamin C on reproductive potentials cocks raised under high ambient temperature. Four diets contained CrPic at 0.00 to 1.20 mg kg-1 and another four 200 each. A total 192 White Leghorn Noiler (96 each) were randomly assigned 8 treatments replicated 4 times 6 per replicate in a 2 x2 x factorial experiment. At end si...

introduction: wistar rats are an outbred strain of albino rats belonging to the species rattus norvegicus. histopathological studies on the testis was carried out to determine the effects of heat and lead on male fertility by evaluating some andrological parameters of the wistar rat such as morphology of spermatozoa, sperm count and motility. the main objective of this research was to compare t...

background: ginger rhizome (zingiber officinale r., family: zingiberaceae) is used medicinally and as a culinary spice. objective: medicinal use of ginger dates back to ancient china and india. ginger and its constituents are stated to have antiemetic, antithrombotic, antihepatotoxic, anti-inflammatory, stimulant, cholagogue and antioxidant. it has been used since ancient time as medicinal and ...

the specificity of gentamicin for vitamin e deficiency-associated oxidative stresses in the renal proximal convoluted tubules is apparently related to its ability to increasingly facilitate generation of radical species in mitochondria. to determine the ways in which vitamin e manage the currently processes, we conducted a prospective study aimed to investigate the tubular preserving effect of ...

Objective(s): Sperm cryopreservation plays an undeniable role in assisted reproductive technology. However, this process significantly reduces the motility, viability, morphology and nuclear integrity of sperm. Reasons of these changes were oxidative stress and apoptosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of vitamin D on the survival and integrity of ...

Background: Obesity increases the likelihood of various diseases, particularly heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, certain types of cancer and infertility and dub fertility. Some studies have associated the body mass index (BMI) with reproductive parameters in men, showing that increased BMI is related to poor semen quality, decreased sperm concentration, decreased normal-m...
