Oxidative stress in the male germ line and its role in the aetiology of male infertility and genetic disease.

Reproductive biomedicine online - 1 Jan 2000

Aitken R John, Baker Mark A, Sawyer Dennis

Abstract excerpt

The human male is characterized by extremely poor semen quality as reflected in the number, morphology and motility of the spermatozoa and a high incidence of nuclear and mitochondrial DNA damage. As a consequence of these factors, defective sperm function is thought to be a major contributor to...
