Mitochondria are fundamental organelles in eukaryotic cells that provide ATP through
oxidative phosphorylation. During this process, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are …

BACKGROUND Mitochondria are multitasking organelles involved in ATP synthesis,
reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, calcium signalling and apoptosis; and …

Male and female germ lines are vulnerable to oxidative stress. In spermatozoa, such stress
triggers a lipid peroxidation cascade that culminates in the generation of electrophilic lipid …

The consensus that assisted reproduction technologies (ART), like in vitro fertilization, to
induce oxidative stress (ie, the known) belies how oocyte/zygote mitochondria—a major …

Oxidative stress caused by elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) is one of the
predominant causes of both male and female infertility. Oxidative stress conditions cause …

Background Basal energetic metabolism in sperm, particularly oxidative phosphorylation, is
known to condition not only their oocyte fertilising ability, but also the subsequent embryo …

The mitochondria, present in almost all eukaryotic cells, produce energy but also contribute
to many other essential cellular functions. One of the unique characteristics of the …

In brief Many aspects of the reproductive process are impacted by oxidative stress. This
article summarizes the chemical nature of reactive oxygen species and their role in both the …

Oxidative stress (OS) due to an imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and
antioxidants has been established as an important factor that can negatively affect the …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in physiological functions and act as mediators
in various signaling processes. Elevated or sustained generation of free radicals and non …
