Defining the Mechanisms by Which the Reactive Oxygen Species By-Product, 4-Hydroxynonenal, Affects Human Sperm Cell Function1
12 Feb 2015
Abstract excerpt
Lipid peroxidation products such as the naturally occurring aldehyde 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) are known to be cytotoxic toward different cell types, including spermatozoa. In order to understand this at the molecular level, we have employed a proteomic approach to characterize direct 4-HNE adducts on human spermatozoa. Several proteins were identified to be of particular interest, including aldehyde labeling of...
