Abstract

This study is aimed at evaluating the association between occupational exposure to organophosphate (OP) and carbamate (CB) pesticides and semen quality as well as levels of reproductive and thyroid hormones of pesticide sprayers in Malihabad, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India. Thirty-five healthy men (unexposed group) and 64 male pesticide sprayers (exposed group) were recruited for clinical evaluation of fertility status. Fresh semen samples were evaluated for sperm quality and analyzed for DNA fragmentation index (DFI) by flow cytometry. Pesticide exposure was assessed by measuring erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase and plasma butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) with a Test-mate ChE field kit. Serum levels of total testosterone (Tt), prolactin (PRL), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and free thyroxine (FT4) were analyzed using enzyme immunoassay kits. Evidence of pesticide exposure was found in 88.5% of sprayers and significant increments were observed in sperm DFI with significant decrease in some semen parameters. DFI was negatively correlated with BuChE, sperm concentration, morphology, and vitality in these pesticide sprayers. The levels of Tt, PRL, FT4, and TSH appeared to be normal; however, there was a tendency for increased LH and FSH levels in exposed workers. The results confirm the potential impact of chronic occupational exposure to OP and CB pesticides on male reproductive function, which may cause damage to sperm chromatin, decrease semen quality, and produce alterations in reproductive hormones, leading to adverse reproductive health outcomes.

摘要

本研究旨在评估印度北方邦勒克瑙市马利哈巴德地区农药喷洒工职业性接触有机磷酸酯(OP)和氨基甲酸酯(CB)类农药与精液质量以及生殖和甲状腺激素水平之间的关联。招募了35名健康男性(未接触组)和64名男性农药喷洒工(接触组)进行生育状况的临床评估。对新鲜精液样本进行精子质量评估,并通过流式细胞术分析DNA碎片化指数(DFI)。使用Test-mate ChE现场试剂盒通过测量红细胞乙酰胆碱酯酶和血浆丁酰胆碱酯酶(BuChE)来评估农药接触情况。使用酶免疫分析试剂盒分析血清总睾酮(Tt)、催乳素(PRL)、促卵泡激素(FSH)、促黄体生成素(LH)、促甲状腺激素(TSH)和游离甲状腺素(FT4)的水平。在88.5%的喷洒工中发现了农药接触的证据,并且观察到精子DFI显著增加,同时一些精液参数显著下降。在这些农药喷洒工中,DFI与BuChE、精子浓度、形态和活力呈负相关。Tt、PRL、FT4和TSH水平似乎正常;然而,接触组工人的LH和FSH水平有升高的趋势。结果证实了长期职业性接触OP和CB类农药对男性生殖功能的潜在影响,这可能会导致精子染色质受损、精液质量下降以及生殖激素改变,从而导致不良的生殖健康后果。
