Purpose
Although oxidative stress is thought to be an important cause of male infertility, primarily due to DNA and cell membrane damage, little is known about the genetic causes underlying suboptimal function of the seminal enzymatic antioxidant system. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship of four potentially functional polymorphisms associated with oxidative stress pathway...
The DNA repair capacity in the mature spermatozoa is highly compromised due to the base‐excision repair (BER) route being truncated. In the mature spermatozoa, only the first enzyme of the route (OGG1) is present. Consequently, reduced activity of the enzymes of the BER route both during spermatogenesis and in the mature spermatozoa may be detrimental for fertility. The objective of our study was...
