Sperm nuclear DNA fragmentation and mitochondrial activity in men with varicocele

TL;DR: Compared with men without varicocele, men with varicoCele had a higher percentage of cells with DNA fragmentation and sperm with inactive mitochondria, and the sperm functional evaluation (DNA fragmentation and mitochondrial activity) could be important factors in deciding treatment options for men withvaricocele.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of varicocele on sperm function and semen oxidative stress

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of varicocele on sperm DNA integrity, mitochondrial activity, lipid peroxidation, and acrosome integrity was evaluated in 30 patients with and 32 men without the condition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adolescent varicocele: improved sperm function after varicocelectomy.

TL;DR: This study was able to demonstrate that varicocelectomy in adolescents is associated with increased sperm DNA integrity and mitochondrial activity, however, levels of seminal products of lipid degradation (malondialdehyde) are not different.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quality and functional aspects of sperm retrieved through assisted ejaculation in men with spinal cord injury.

TL;DR: Spinal cord injury led to a decrease in sperm mitochondrial activity and an increase in sperm DNA fragmentation, and the latter is a sign of testicular alterations, and studies should focus on improving the testicular environment in these men.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of adrenalectomy and dexamethasone treatment on testicular morphology and sperm parameters in rats: insights into the adrenal control of male reproduction.

TL;DR: The results indicated that glucocorticoids may be involved in events related to the maintenance of spermatogenesis and sperm maturation during adulthood, and provide new insights into the importance of adrenal steroids to male fertility.
