20 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
Peroxiredoxins (PRDXs) are antioxidant enzymes proven to control the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and to avoid oxidative damage in the spermatozoon. Previously, we have shown that low amounts of PRDXs are associated with male infertility and that PRDX6 is the primary antioxidant defense in human spermatozoa, maintaining survival and DNA integrity (Gong et al., 2012, Fernandez and O'Flaherty, 2018)....
