Male fertility can be affected by oxidative stress (OS), which occurs when an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and body's ability to neutralize them arises. OS damage cells influence sperm production. High levels lipid peroxidation have been linked reduced motility decreased fertilization ability. This literature review discusses most commonly used biomarkers measure caused ROS, such as high level in seminal plasma indicator antioxidant activity. The investigated include 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine acid (8-OHdG), a marker DNA F2 isoprostanoids (8-isoprostanes) produced peroxidation. Furthermore, this focuses on recent methodologies including NGS polymorphisms differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis, well epigenetic mechanisms ROS during spermatogenesis along with new developed evaluate biomarkers. Finally, addresses valuable insight into male infertility provided these advances how they led treatment possibilities. Overall, use has supplied innovative diagnostic therapeutic approaches, enhancing our understanding mechanisms.

Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 125 infertile enrolled fertility clinic. Seminal characteristics were measured following WHO guidelines (2010) for examination of seminal fluid. After collecting motile population by pellet swim up, DFI calculated simultaneously associated with using situ TUNEL assay an image analyzer software at least 250 spermatozoa each patient. Results All subjects divided into two groups according to cutoff established, choice, (15%): group (< 15%) consisting 65 B (≥ 60 patients. Data analyzed non-parametric statistical methods. The results demonstrate that there is no difference characteristics. collective data show high significant correlation, suggesting abnormal are best candidates contain damage ( p < 0.001).

Obesity is a major current public health problem of global significance. A progressive sperm quality decline, and decline in male fertility, have been reported recent decades. Several studies strict relationship between obesity reproductive dysfunction. Among the many mechanisms by which impairs gonadal function, sirtuins (SIRTs) an emerging role. SIRTs are highly conserved nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent deacetylases that play role gene regulation, metabolism, aging, cancer. regulate energy balance, lipid glucose adipogenesis, but evidence also indicates for reproduction. However, majority conducted animal models very few with humans. This review shows important among molecular interferes fertility. highlights need to deepen this relationship.

ABSTRACT: Smoking is still prevalent around the world, even though there evidence that it has negative consequences for both general health and fertility. Concern over smoking-related illnesses their detrimental impacts, particularly reproductive health, long existed. Each year, about 8 million individuals die as a result of smoking. The majority these deaths occur in nations with low moderate incomes. Specifically, estimates suggest cigarettes harbor nearly thousand harmful substances toxins. Research demonstrates smoking causes fragmentation sperm DNA lowers semen parameters male smokers. Smoke's constituents can influence spermatogenesis cause varying degrees harm to germ cells. Female smokers face various problems, such early loss function, hormonal imbalance, mutagenesis gametes, earlier menopause.
