Abstract:
Parameters of LPO reflecting primary and end stages of oxidation and total antioxidant activity were evaluated in the seminal fluid of young fertile men living in Novosibirsk. By the results of andrological examination and spermogram analysis, various reproductive disorders and abnormal spermogram (pathospermia) were found in 48 patients. Shifts towards activation of prooxidant processes in LPO-antioxidant defense metabolic system were observed in men with reproductive disorders and pathospermia. The results of individual estimation of coefficient of oxidative stress, an integral parameter reflecting the balance in the LPO-antioxidant defense system, attest to the development of oxidative stress in men with reproductive disorders and pathospermia.
