Oxidative stress in an assisted reproductive techniques setting.

TLDR
Many modifiable conditions exist in an ART setting that may aid in reducing the toxic effects of ROS, and the main objective of this review is to provide ART personnel with all the necessary information regarding the development of oxidative stress in anART setting.

The effects of oxidative stress on female reproduction: a review

TL;DR: The impact of OS on assisted reproductive techniques (ART) will be addressed, in addition to the possible benefits of antioxidant supplementation of ART culture media to increase the likelihood for ART success.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of oxidative stress on male reproduction.

TL;DR: This review highlights the mechanisms of ROS production, the physiological and pathophysiological roles of ROS in relation to the male reproductive system, and recent advances in diagnostic methods; it also explores the benefits of using antioxidants in a clinical setting.
Journal ArticleDOI

Redox Considerations in Female Reproductive Function and Assisted Reproduction: From Molecular Mechanisms to Health Implications

TL;DR: The role of OS is becoming increasingly important, as recent evidence suggest that it plays a part in conditions such as polycystic ovarian disease, endometriosis, spontaneous abortions, preeclampsia, hydatidiform mole, embryopathies, preterm labor, and intrauterine growth retardation.

Is sperm evaluation useful in predicting human fertility

Sheena E.M. Lewis
- 01 Jul 2007 - 
TL;DR: A number of laboratory tests have been developed to determine properties of sperm function but few have been adopted into routine clinical use and international collaborations should be initiated to develop clinically relevant molecular and functional tests.
Journal ArticleDOI

Male infertility testing: reactive oxygen species and antioxidant capacity.

TL;DR: ROS and antioxidant capacity testing can potentially add additional prognostic information to standard laboratory testing for the infertile male, although its role as standard part of an evaluation has yet to be determined.

High gradient magnetic cell separation with MACS

TL;DR: A flexible, fast and simple magnetic cell sorting system for separation of large numbers of cells according to specific cell surface markers was developed and tested and makes this system an ideal complement to flow cytometry.

Livebirth after orthotopic transplantation of cryopreserved ovarian tissue

TL;DR: The findings suggest that cryopreservation of ovarian tissue should be offered to all young women diagnosed with cancer and a livebirth after orthotopic autotransplantation of Cryopreserved ovarian tissue is described.

Role of reactive oxygen species in the pathophysiology of human reproduction

TL;DR: High levels of ROS are detrimental to the fertility potential both in natural and assisted conception states.

The mitochondrial genome: structure, transcription, translation and replication

TL;DR: It is expected that cell cultures of patients with mitochondrial diseases will increasingly be used to address fundamental questions about mtDNA expression, and several key enzymes involved in mtDNA replication, transcription and protein synthesis have now been biochemically identified and some have been cloned.

Oxidative stress and protection against reactive oxygen species in the pre-implantation embryo and its surroundings

TL;DR: It is now common to add antioxidant compounds to culture media, but maintaining the pro-oxidant-antioxidant equilibrium in embryos through such supplementation is a complex problem.
