Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been extensively studied as a cause of male infertility.
Excessive levels of ROS coupled with a deficiency in antioxidants can lead to oxidative …

Oxidative stress occurs when the production of potentially destructive reactive oxygen
species (ROS) exceeds the bodies own natural antioxidant defenses, resulting in cellular …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have a role in the modulation of gamete quality and gamete
interaction. Generation of ROS is inherent in spermatozoa and contaminating leukocytes …

Disruptions to the genetic integrity of the mammalian spermatozoon play a major role in
determining the subsequent developmental trajectory of the embryo. This chapter examines …

DNA damage, largely owing to oxidative stress, is a leading cause of defective sperm
function. High levels of oxidative stress result in damage to sperm DNA, RNA transcripts …

All living aerobic cells are normally exposed to some reactive oxygen species (ROS) but if
ROS levels rise, oxidative stress (OS) occurs, which results in oxygen and oxygen-derived …

Oxidative stress (OS) is an imbalance between the amount of reactive oxygen species
(ROS) produced and the ability of the antioxidants to scavenge these. OS has been …

Male factor has been considered a major contributory factor to infertility. Along with the
conventional causes for male infertility such as varicocele, cryptorchidism, infections …

Current evidence links oxidative stress (OS) to male infertility, reduced sperm motility, sperm
DNA damage and increased risk of recurrent abortions and genetic diseases. A review of …

Male factor is responsible for 40–50% of infertility cases, contributing equally as a female
factor. Oxidative stress has now emerged as one of the major causes of unexplained male …
