Protective Role of Acetyl-L-Carnitine on Ultrastructure and Acrosome Integrity of Human Spermatozoa after Cryopreservation
摘要
Abstract
Objective To investigate role of acetyl-L-carnitine on ultrastructure and acrosome integrity of human spermatozoa after freezing-thawing process. Methods The spermatozoa were col-lected from 18 male patients and divided into two groups after centrifugation. The cryopreservation of human spermatozoa for two weeks treated with acetyl-L-carnitine at 7. 5 mmol/L ( group B ) was compared with control ( group A: no acetyl-L-carnitine given ) . For the frozen-thawed spermato-zoa, the viability, motility, ultrastructure and acrosome integrity by FITC-PNA staining was deter-mined in each group. Results Motility and viability of thawed spermatozoa was significantly lower than that of pre-frozen ( P<0. 05 ) , while the motility and viability of spermatozoa in group B was significantly increased as compared with those in group A ( P<0. 05 ) . Damaged proportion of head and tail ultrastructure of spermatozoa was significantly higher than that of pre-frozen ( P<0. 05 ) , while damaged proportion of head and tail ultrastructure of spermatozoa in group B was significantly lower as compared with those in group A ( P <0. 05 ) . Acrosome integrity of thawed spermatozoa was significantly lower than that of pre-frozen ( P<0. 05 ) , while acrosome integrity of spermatozoa in group B was significantly increased as compared with those in group A ( P<0. 05 ) . Conclusion Acetyl-L-carnitine at a concentration of 7. 5 mmol/L is an effective antioxidant against cryo-dam-age on ultrastructure and acrsome integrity of post-thawed human spermatozoa.关键词
