The idea that free radicals are produced by spermatozoa was first proposed by Macleod in
1943. While evaluating the influence of oxygen tension on sperm cell motility, he observed …

In this chapter we outline the history of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and spermatozoa,
starting with some of the foundation experiments conducted by John MacLeod in 1943 …

Extensive research in our center at the Cleveland Clinic indicates that the seminal oxidative
stress test has diagnostic and prognostic capabilities beyond those of conventional tests of …

Spermatozoa were the first cell type in which the cellular generation of reactive oxygen was
demonstrated. This activity has now been confirmed in spermatozoa from all mammalian …

Oxidants, Antioxidants and Impact of the Oxidative Status in Male Reproduction is an
essential reference for fertility practitioners and research and laboratory professionals …

There is a growing body of evidence to indicate that a significant factor in the aetiology of
male infertility involves a loss of sperm function as a consequence of oxidative stress. This …

Physiology and Toxicology of Male Reproduction is a collection of papers that deals with
general reproductive biology and specific aspects of reproductive toxicology, pertaining to …

Oxidative stress (OS) is highly damaging to most, if not all, systems of the body. While they
play a vital role in normal spermatogenesis, they can also lead to pathologies of the male …

Numerous factors influence male fertility. Among these factors is oxidative stress (OS), which
has elicited an enormous interest in researchers in recent period. Reactive oxygen species …
