Significance of Mitochondrial Reactive Oxygen Species in the Generation of Oxidative Stress in Spermatozoa
21 May 2008
Abstract excerpt
CONTEXT: Male infertility has been linked with the excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by defective spermatozoa. However, the subcellular origins of this activity are unclear. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to determine the importance of sperm mitochondria in creating the oxidative stress associated with defective sperm function. METHOD: Intracellular measurement of mitochondrial ROS...
