a preliminary study of oscillating electromagnetic field effects on human Spermatozoon Motility
Bioelectromagnetics, 2007Co-Authors: Roberto Iorio, R Scrimaglio, E Rantucci, Delle S Monache, A Di Gaetano, N Finetti, F Francavilla, R Santucci, E Tettamanti, R ColonnaAbstract:Some effects of extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs) on human spermatozoa are reported. Significant increases in the values of the Motility and of the other kinematic parameters have been observed when spermatozoa were exposed to an ELF-EMF with a square waveform of 5 mT amplitude and frequency of 50 Hz. By contrast, a 5 mT sine wave (50 Hz) and a 2.5 mT square wave (50 Hz) exposure did not produce any significant effect on sperm Motility. The effects induced by ELF-EMF (50 Hz; 5 mT) during the first 3 h of exposure persisted for 21 h after the end of the treatment. These results indicate that ELF-EMF exposure can improve spermatozoa Motility and that this effect depends on the field characteristics. Bioelectromagnetics. © 2006 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Effect of etodolac hydrazone, a new compound synthesised from etodolac, on Spermatozoon quality, testicular lipid peroxidation, apoptosis and Spermatozoon DNA integrity
'Wiley', 2016Co-Authors: Süzgün Pelin, Küçükgüzel, ş. GünizAbstract:The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of etodolac hydrazone (EH), a new compound synthesised from etodolac, on Spermatozoon quality, testicular lipid peroxidation, apoptosis and Spermatozoon DNA integrity in rats. Group 1 (n = 8) received 1 ml dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) daily (Control); group 2 (n = 8) was treated with 5 mg kg-1 day-1 EH, dissolved in 1 ml DMSO (EH-5); and group 3 (n = 8) was treated with 10 mg kg-1 day-1 EH, dissolved in 1 ml DMSO (EH-10). All administrations were performed by gavage and maintained for 8 weeks. Both doses of EH administration caused significant decreases in absolute and relative weights of testis, whole epididymis, right cauda epididymis, and Spermatozoon Motility, Spermatozoon count in comparison with the control group. Only 10 mg kg-1 day-1 EH administration caused significant decreases in absolute and relative weights of seminal vesicles and serum testosterone level, and significant increases in testicular lipid peroxidation level, and numbers of TUNEL+ apoptotic germ cells and spermatozoa with damaged DNA along with some histopathological damages when compared to the control group. However, body and ventral prostate weight, and testicular antioxidant markers (glutathione, glutathione-peroxidase and catalase), were unaffected significantly by both doses of EH administration. In conclusion, two different doses of EH, in particular its high dose, damage to testicular spermatogenic cells and Spermatozoon DNA and, it decreases Spermatozoon Motility, count and testosterone level in healthy rats. © 2016 Blackwell Verlag GmbH

the effect of ascorbic acid supplementation on sperm quality lipid peroxidation and testosterone levels of male wistar rats
Theriogenology, 2005Co-Authors: Mustafa Sonmez, Gaffari Turk, Abdurrauf YuceAbstract:This study was conducted to investigate the effects of ascorbic acid supplementation in drinking water on semen quality, lipid peroxidation and plasma testosterone level of male rats. In this investigation, 24 male Wistar rats were used. The animals were divided into three group, and 500, 250 and 0 (control) mg/kg/day ascorbic acid were supplemented with drinking water of rats in Groups A, B and C during 8 weeks, respectively. Ascorbic acid supplementation did not increase in the body weight and weights of the testis, epididymis, seminal vesicles and ventral prostate. Exogenous supplementation with ascorbic acid significantly increased (P<0.05) the concentration of ascorbic acid in the testes and blood plasma, and the level of lipid peroxidation significantly decreased (P<0.05) in these locations. There was no significant difference in Spermatozoon Motility among the three groups. However, epididymal sperm concentration and plasma testosterone level significantly increased (P<0.05) in the ascorbic acid treated animals when compared to the control animals. The results suggest that ascorbic acid supplementation improves reproductive traits of male rats that are associated with high fertility.
