Abstract:Background. Previous evidence suggested sperm Glutathione S-transferase Mu 3 (GSTM3) to be essential for an appropriate mitochondrial function, plasma membrane stability and oxidative regulation of mammalian sperm. In humans, however, neither has this enzyme been related to semen alterations nor has it been reported to be associated to oxidative DNA damage and (in)fertility.
Methods. The aim of the present study was to assess the utility of GSTM3 to predict spermiogram alterations and oxidative DNA damage in s… Show more
