Role of the reactive oxygen species induced DNA damage in human spermatozoa dysfunction
2018-01-26
Abstract excerpt
Abstract: Non-enzymatic oxidative damage of DNA in the male germ cell line is believed to be one of the key mechanisms of premature apoptosis of spermatozoa and in pathogenesis of male subfertility. High motility of sperm cells requires high activity of energetic metabolism and mitochondrial functioning that makes them subject to excessive influence of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Low volume of cytoplasm, where...
