Abstract

Bu çalışmada homosistein, nesfatin-1 düzeyleri ile akrozom bütünlüğü arasındaki ilişkinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Ejakülatlar, suni vajen yöntemiyle altı yetişkin koçtan alındı ve toplanan ejakülatlar beş gruba bölünerek 37 °C'de sulandırıldı. Sperma sulandırılmasında kolesterol yüklü siklodekstrin (CLC) 1.5 ve 2.5 mg, kolesterol yüklü 7-dehidrokolesterol (7-DCLC) 1.5 ve 2.5 mg içeren veya katkı maddesi içermeyen (kontrol) sulandırıcılar kullanıldı. Tüm gruplardaki sperma örnekleri 5 °C' de soğutulduktan sonra sıvı nitrojen buharında (-110~-120° C) donduruldu. Sıvı nitrojen içinde saklanan sperma örnekleri incelenmek için 38 °C ve 30 saniyede çözdürüldü. Akrozom bütünlüğü, FITC-PNA boyama ile incelendi. Homosistein (HCY) ve nesfatin-1 testleri ELISA yöntemi ile yapıldı. CLC 1.5 ve 2.5 mg gruplarında homosistein seviyeleri kontrol grubuna (1.36±0.9) göre daha düşük bulundu (0.67±0.11, 0.61±0.26) (p <0.05). Nesfatin-1 düzeylerinde gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak fark gözlenmedi (p> 0.05). 2.5 mg CLC'de akrozom bütünlüğü bozulmamış sperma hücrelerinin oranları (65.88±2.84) kontrol grubuna (52.38±2.97) göre daha yüksek bulundu (p<0.05). Sperma akrozom bütünlüğü, çözüm sonu koç spermasında HCY seviyesi (r =-,630) ile negatif, nesfatin-1 seviyeleri (r =, 460) ile pozitif korelasyon gösterdi. Sonuç olarak, CLC'nin akrozom bütünlüğü üzerinde kriyoprotektif bir etki gösterdiği ve HCY seviyesi üzerinde faydalı olduğu belirlenmiştir.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between homocysteine, nesfatin-1 levels with acrosome integrity. Ejaculates were collected from six adult rams via artificial vagina, divided into five groups and diluted at 37 °C. The extenders, which contained cholesterol loaded cyclodextrin (CLC) 1.5 and 2.5 mg, cholesterol loaded 7-dehydrocholesterol (7-DCLC) 1.5 and 2.5 mg or no additive (control), were used for sperm dilution. Semen samples of all groups were cooled at 5°C and then frozen in liquid nitrogen vapor (-110~-120°C). Semen samples stored in liquid nitrogen then were thawed at 38°C for 30 seconds prior to examination. Acrosome integrity was examined with FITC-PNA staining. Homocysteine (HCY) and nesfatin-1 assays were performed with ELISA method. In the CLC 1.5 and 2.5 mg groups homocysteine levels were lower (0.67±0.11;0.61±0.26) compared to control group (1.36±0.9) (p<0.05). No statistical differences were observed between groups in nesfatin-1 levels (p>0.05). In CLC 2.5 mg, the values of spermatozoa with intact acrosome membrane (65.88±2.84) were higher (p<0.05) than in control group (52.38±2.97). Sperm acrosome integrity was negatively correlated with HCY level (r =-,630) and positive correlated with nesfatin-1 levels (r =,460) in thawed ram sperm. In conclusion, CLC has a cryoprotective effect on acrosome integrity and found to have beneficial effects on HCY level.
