The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of the supplementation of two extra-virgin olive oils (EVOO) having different polyphenols content, on canine spermatozoa kinetic parameters and seminal plasma oxidative status. The study was conducted on 12 clinically healthy dogs of different breeds (2-7 years, 5-48 kg of body weight) divided into two groups: an experimental group supplemented with EVOO (Coratina cultivar) high in polyphenols (H-P) and a control group fed EVOO (Cima di Bitonto cultivar) low in polyphenols (L-P). The oil was daily administered per os (1 ml/3 kg BW) before meal. Semen collection was made twice at 15 days distance (D0 and D0 ) and then at 30 (D30), 60 (D60) and 90 (D90) days. Semen concentration and kinetic parameters were measured using computer-assisted sperm analysis (CASA) system to evaluate: sperm total count, sperm motile (MOT%), progressive motility (PROGR%) and its fractions, straight-line velocity (VSL, μm/s), curvilinear velocity (VCL, μm/s), average path velocity (VAP, μm/s), amplitude of lateral head displacement (ALH, μm), beat cross frequency (BCF, Hz), straightness (STR%) and linearity (LIN%). On seminal plasma, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and biological antioxidant potential (BAP) were tested. From findings, no differences were found for sperm MOT, VSL, VCL, VAP, ALH, BCF, STR, LIN and BAP. A gradual enhancement of PROGR% was observed in H-P group (p < .01). The ROS levels were higher in dogs H-P compared to the other group (p < .05). In conclusion, our results highlight the positive effects of EVOO polyphenols on sperm PROGR% in healthy dogs.
本研究旨在评估补充两种多酚含量不同的特级初榨橄榄油(EVOO)对犬精子运动参数和精浆氧化状态的影响。该研究以12只不同品种(2至7岁,体重5至48千克)的临床健康犬为对象,分为两组:实验组补充多酚含量高的EVOO(科拉蒂纳品种)(H-P),对照组喂食多酚含量低的EVOO(比托托峰品种)(L-P)。每天在饭前经口给予该油(1毫升/3千克体重)。在15天间隔(D0和D15)时采集两次精液,然后在30天(D30)、60天(D60)和90天(D90)时采集。使用计算机辅助精子分析(CASA)系统测量精液浓度和运动参数,以评估:精子总数、精子活力(MOT%)、前向运动率(PROGR%)及其分级、直线速度(VSL,微米/秒)、曲线速度(VCL,微米/秒)、平均路径速度(VAP,微米/秒)、头部侧摆幅度(ALH,微米)、鞭打交叉频率(BCF,赫兹))、直线性(STR%)和线性度(LIN%)。对精浆进行活性氧(ROS)和生物抗氧化潜力(BAP)检测。研究结果显示,精子的MOT、VSL、VCL、VAP、ALH、BCF、STR、LIN和BAP没有差异。H-P组的PROGR%逐渐升高(p < 0.01)。与另一组相比,H-P组犬的ROS水平更高(p < 0.05)。总之,我们的结果突出了EVOO多酚对健康犬精子PROGR%的积极影响。
