The effects of oxidative stress on female reproduction: a review

The impact of OS on assisted reproductive techniques (ART) will be addressed, in addition to the possible benefits of antioxidant supplementation of ART culture media to increase the likelihood for ART success.

It is revealed that micronutrient intakes play a substantial role in preventing or facilitating female infertility.

New insights into male (in)fertility: the importance of NO

A special emphasis will be placed on the potential implementation of new redox‐active substances that modulate the content of NO in spermatozoa to increase fertility and promote conception.

Validity of the association between periodontitis and female infertility conditions: a concise review.

The available evidence on the association between periodontitis and female infertility-associated conditions is summarized, and warranting steps in future research are discussed.

Status of α-tocopherol concentration and oxidative stress in infertile females of Vijayapur District, northern Karnataka

Infertile females of northern Karnataka showed lower α-tocopherol levels and greater potential for oxidative stress as compared to fertile females, and this findings demonstrate imbalance in ROS production and antioxidant.

Impacts of Oxidative Stress and Antioxidants on Semen Functions

The impacts of oxidative stress and reactive oxygen species on spermatozoa functions, causes of ROS generation, and antioxidative strategies to reduce OS are reviewed and the emerging concept of utilizing OS as a tool of contraception is highlighted.

The role of sperm oxidative stress in male infertility and the significance of oral antioxidant therapy.

Adequately powered, placebo-controlled comprehensive clinical trials are now required to establish a clear role for antioxidants in the prevention of oxidative stress in the male germ line, such that the clinical utility of this form of therapy becomes established once and for all.

SPERM OXIDATIVE STRESS AND THE EFFECT OF AN ORAL VITAMIN E AND SELENIUM SUPPLEMENT ON SEMEN QUALITY IN INFERTILE MEN

In contrast to vitamin B supplementation, vitamin E and selenium supplementation produced a significant decrease in MDA concentrations and an improvement of sperm motility, and these results confirm the protective and beneficial effects of Vitamin E and Selenium on semen quality and advocate their use in male infertility treatment.

Dietary antioxidants improve arteriogenic erectile dysfunction.

The data suggest the presence of oxidative stress in ED and a more efficient action of antioxidants on molecular and ultrastructural alterations than on distinct functional deficit and structural damage in the ischaemic penis.

Endothelial dysfunction in cardiovascular diseases: the role of oxidant stress.

Accumulating evidence suggests that oxidant stress alters many functions of the endothelium, including modulation of vasomotor tone, and as the role of these various enzyme sources of ROS become clear, it will perhaps be possible to use more specific therapies to prevent their production and ultimately correct endothelial dysfunction.
