Protamine contents and P1/P2 ratio in human spermatozoa from smokers and non-smokers

7 Sept 2010

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Protamine content is necessary for proper sperm chromatin condensation and subsequent male fertility. The exact effect of smoking on male fertility remains controversial. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of smoking on protamine content of sperm in smoker and non-smoker patients. METHODS: Protamines 1 (P1) and 2 (P2) were quantified by gel electrophoresis in the sperm of 53...
