Role of Membrane Lipid Fatty Acids in Sperm Cryopreservation

Abstract: Lipid is an important constituent of cell membrane. Membrane lipid composition of spermatozoa has been correlated to different function. Many researchers have related membrane lipid with survival success after cryopreservation or cold shock. Sperm maturation and acrosome reactions are natural phenomenon, but cryopreservation or cold shock is not. Therefore, sperm cells are not programmed for such change and undergo stress. So the change in membrane lipid composition due to cold shock or cryopreservation may be… Show more

“…Furthermore, incorporation of exogenous n ‐3 PUFAs in sperm medium has been reported to modify fatty acid profile of sperm membrane, thereby improve sperm quality under cold‐shock exposure (Mandal, Badyakar, & Chakrabarty, ). However, the results of previous studies in this area are rather conflicting due to the difference in type of PUFAs, as well as the concentration incorporated in the diluent, among different studies.…”

“…Therefore, inclusion of enzymatic or nonenzymatic antioxidants in semen diluents gained considerable attention in recent fertility-related practices (Bucak et al, 2010;Bucak, Atessahin, & Yuce, 2008;Hashem, Haddad, & Eslami, 2017;Jha et al, 2013;Zeitoun & Al-Damegh, 2015). Furthermore, incorporation of exogenous n-3 PUFAs in sperm medium has been reported to modify fatty acid profile of sperm membrane, thereby improve sperm quality under cold-shock exposure (Mandal, Badyakar, & Chakrabarty, 2014). However, the results of previous studies in this area are rather conflicting due to the difference in type of PUFAs, as well as the concentration incorporated in the diluent, among different studies.…”

“…More solubility of free radicals in plasma membrane along with the high concentration of PUFAs in phospholipids enhances initiation and propagation of oxidative stress which results in protein, DNA and plasma membrane dysfunction (Pamplona, ). A strong direct correlation has been proposed for n ‐3 especially DHA amount of sperm and its post‐thawed motility and viability (Mandal, Badyakar, & Chakrabarty, ). It seems that beneficial effects of Chrysin on plasma membrane integrity and functionality mediated through its capability to improve the antioxidant capacity of spermatozoa which was previously reported by Ciftci et al.…”
