- Abstract
- In order to accurately analyze the possible side effects of sperm cryopreservation, an in-depth screening of post-thaw sperm status is necessary. Thus, this study aimed to identify thorough effects of sperm cryopreservation, by evaluating the integrity of all specific structures of the canine spermatozoa. Thirteen (n = 13) mature dogs of different breeds were selected. Six dogs (n = 6) were subjected to sperm cryopreservation, whereas seven dogs (n = 7) were used as semen donors to validate a simultaneous assessment of sperm plasmatic, acrosomal, and mitochondrial membranes (triple stain) by fluorescent probes. Fresh and post-thaw semen samples were evaluated through a computer-assisted analysis of sperm motility, sperm morpho-functional evaluation, triple stain and sperm DNA integrity. Post-thaw semen samples had lower total and progressive motility, as well as higher percentage of minor and major defects. Moreover, post-thaw samples had higher percentage of sperm with plasma membrane and mitochondrial damage but intact acrosome, and also sperm with simultaneous damaged plasma, acrosomal and mitochondrial membranes. Furthermore, post-thaw sperm had higher protamination deficiency and DNA fragmentation. In conclusion, cryopreservation has a broad impact in sperm morphology and function, altering motility patterns, plasma, acrosome and mitochondrial membranes integrity, as well as sperm DNA.
