Effects of zearalenone, α-zearalenol, and genistein on boar sperm motility in vitro
TLDR
The results shift the effective concentrations of ZEA, α-ZOL, and GEN to values achievable in vivo and raises the questions of risk assessment of these compounds in pig reproduction.
Optimizing a recombinant estrogen receptor binding assay for analysis of herbal extracts
Zearalenone (ZEN) disrupts the anti-inflammatory response of bovine oviductal epithelial cells to sperm in vitro.
Protective Potential of Ginseng and/or Coenzyme Q10 on Doxorubicin-induced Testicular and Hepatic Toxicity in Rats
TLDR
Ginseng and CoQ10 have valuable therapeutic effects on DOX-induced testicular and hepatic toxicity via up-regulation of Nrf2 gene expression, inhibition of apoptosis,Anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and hypolipidemic effects.
Melatonin alleviates β-zearalenol and HT-2 toxin-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress in bovine ovarian granulosa cells.
Detoxification Strategies for Zearalenone Using Microorganisms: A Review
TLDR
The overall purpose of this paper is to provide a reliable reference strategy for the biological detoxification of ZEA, a mycotoxin produced by Fusarium fungi that is commonly found in cereal crops.
Beneficial effects of Cirsium japonicum var. maackii on menopausal symptoms in ovariectomized rats.
TLDR
Results showed that C. japonicum extract can treat the symptoms before and after the menopause.
Bacillus velezensis A2 fermentation exerts a protective effect on renal injury induced by Zearalenone in mice
TLDR
The results indicate that the newly identified strain of B. velezensis A2, has a protective effect from renal injury induced by Zen in mice and has a potential application in the detoxification of ZEN in feed and protects animals from ZEN poisoning.
Sperm parameters quality and reproductive effects of methanolic extract of Alchornea cordifolia leaves on senescent male rats
TLDR
The overall results provide the strong evidence of the fertility potential of the methanolic extract of Alchornea cordifolia leaves in senescent male rats.
Can Panax Ginseng Aqueous Extract Improve Chilled and Cryopreserved Bull Spermatozoa?
This study was to evaluate the influence of Panax ginseng aqueous extract on chilled and frozen-thawed bull sperm quality. Samples of semen were acquired from four bulls through the use of an…

Ginsenoside Re promotes human sperm capacitation through nitric oxide‐dependent pathway
TLDR
Data suggested that Ginsenoside Re is beneficial to sperm capacitation and AR, and that the effect is accomplished through NO/cGMP/PKG pathway.
Effects of Ginsenoside Rb2 and Rc on inferior human sperm motility in vitro.
TLDR
Two constituents of Panax notoginseng flower extract, Ginsenoside Rb2 and Rc, enhanced both sperm motility and sperm progression significantly at the end of the 1st and 2nd hour, but promoted sperm progression at the 2 second hour, when compared to the Percoll group.
Effects of in vitro exposure to natural levels of zearalenone and its derivatives on chromatin structure stability in equine spermatozoa.
Mycotoxins in root extracts of American and Asian ginseng bind estrogen receptors alpha and beta.
TLDR
Ginseng extraction methods, plant species tested, and mycotoxin contaminants may help to explain the disparate literature reports, and the prevalence and health significance of fungal contamination in herbal products used for medicinal purposes should be further investigated.
Effect of estrogens on boar sperm capacitation in vitro
TLDR
The stimulatory effect of four different estrogens on boar sperm capacitation in vitro is demonstrated and estrogens significantly increase the number of acrosome-reacted sperm after zona pellucida- induced acrosomal reaction.
In vitro effect of zearalenone and alpha-zearalenol on boar sperm characteristics and acrosome reaction.
TLDR
Zen and alpha-zen are directly toxic when they affect boar semen in vitro and consequently decrease the fertilization ability of the sperm and the higher the concentration of mycotoxin tested, the greater the decline of sperm parameters noticed.
Study on the in vitro effect of zearalenone and α‐zearalenol on boar sperm–zona pellucida interaction by hemizona assay application
TLDR
Zen and α‐zen affected the sperm–zona interaction by reducing the ability of boar spermatozoa to bind to the zona pellucida, under in vitro conditions.
