“…Albertini [7] noted how, over 65 years ago, Bleading experts on animal reproduction who together first queried the apparent futility of human reproduction relative to the most thoroughly studied animal models of the day that included domesticated species, non-human primates and guinea pigs.^Baboons, generally a good model for human reproduction, can show close to 80% successes [8], compared to about 30% for humans [9,10], or less.…”

“…To this end, some apoptotic markers have been proposed in semen, such as activation of caspases, disruption of mitochondrial transmembrane potential (MMP), externalization of phosphatidyl-serine (PS), and increased DNA fragmentation [13,14]. Despite that higher levels of some of the mentioned factors have been found in infertile patients [15], to the moment their use is limited only to research protocols, with no application in routine andrological laboratories [16]. Several tests were developed to detect damaged DNA and are used to evaluate the proportion of spermatozoa with fragmented DNA.…”
