In vitro reconstruction of inflammatory reaction in human semen: effect on sperm DNA fragmentation
4 Oct 2013
Abstract excerpt
The study was aimed at evaluating an in vitro induction of DNA damage in three sperm subpopulations exposed to selected inflammatory mediators, such as leukocytes, two combinations of pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin [IL]-6 + IL-8 and IL-12 + IL-18) and two bacterial strains (Escherichia coli and Bacteroides ureolyticus). Semen samples from normozoospermic volunteers were differentiated by swim-up (swim-up...
