Pentoxifylline stimulates various sperm motion parameters and cervical mucus penetrability in patients with asthenozoospermia
1 Feb 1999
Abstract excerpt
Pentoxifylline (PTX) was incubated in vitro with human spermatozoa to examine its effects on sperm motility characteristics and bovine cervical mucus penetrability (BCMP). Sperm motion parameters were assessed by computer-assisted motion analysis (CASA) using HTM-IVOS and BCMP was evaluated using the Penetrak kit. In vitro incubation with PTX (1 mg ml-1; 3.6 mM, 30 min) did not significantly change percentage...
