To study the influence of season on oxidative status of buffalo semen and their association with semen characteristics and seminal plasma proteins, ejaculates were collected twice a week in winter, summer and rainy seasons from six adult Bhadawari buffalo bulls. The neat semen was analyzed for semen characteristics immediately after collection and oxidative status viz. lipid peroxidation (LPO),...

background: the human seminal fluid is a complex body fluid. it is not known how many proteins are expressed in the seminal plasma; however in analog with the blood it is possible up to 10,000 proteins are expressed in the seminal plasma. the human seminal fluid is a rich source of potential biomarkers for male infertility and reproduction disorder. methods: in this review, the ongoing list of ...

This study aimed to improve the quality of cryopreserved goat semen for artificial insemination by the addition of cattle seminal plasma crude protein. Semen collected from cattle and centrifuged to obtain seminal plasma. Then it was purified to obtain the crude protein. The diluent used in this study was milk-yolk. There were three groups, control group without crude protein (P0), the addition...

introduction: mcp (membrane cofactor protein or cd46) is a complement regulatory proteins (crps), which is present in most of body cell membranes (except erythrocytes), and also in most biologycal body fliuds. due to the important role of this protein in the complement system, specially in fertility, the aim of this study was to determine and isolate this protein in human seminal plasma. materi...

In this study, quantitive characteristics and chemical composition of in roach (Rutilus rutilus caspicus) sperm were investigated. Sperm traits included sperm movement duration, percentage of motile spermatozoa, sperm density, spermatocrit and sperm volume. Some seminal plasma characteristics (sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium and chloride) were investigated. In addition, some metabolites o...

Background: Varicocele is a common cause of male infertility with multifactorial etiology. Inflammation is a characteristic pathological event that occurs in the testis tissue following the varicocele. The aim of this study was to investigate expression of nod-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome components and cytokines in semen of varicocele and control subject...

The ionic contents, pH and osmolality of seminal plasma and their relationships to sperm motility indices (sperm motility duration and percentage of motile sperm) were evaluated in bester. Semen was collected from six bester specimens and their seminal plasma was evaluated. The seminal plasma contained 54.5±2.8 mM sodium, 22.33±2.5 mM chloride, 7.1±1.2 mM potassium, 3.55±0.6 mM calcium and 0.58...
