Abstract
The protocol of aseptic cryoprotectant-free vitrification on human spermatozoa is well documented. However, data about the effect of permeable cryoprotectants at this procedure is limited. Presented study aimed to test the aseptic capillary vitrification technologies using permeable cryoprotectant-included or cryopmtectant-free media. Thirty-two normal samples were included and analyzed after vitrification in three different media and thawing. Three treatment groups were formed: Group 1, basic medium; Group 2, basic medium with 0.25 M sucrose; Group 3, basic medium with glycerol. Before plunging into liquid nitrogen, capillaries were filled by 10 til of spermatozoa suspension and isolated from liquid nitrogen by location in hermetically closed 0.25 ml straws. Progressive motility, plasma membrane integrity, total motility/viability after 24, 48 and 72 h in vitro culture, apoptosis and mitochondrial membrane potential (Delta Psi m) were determined after thawing at 42 degrees C. Progressive motility of spermatozoa in groups 1, 2, 3 was 24.9 +/- 1.7%, 34.5 +/- 2.8% and 34.0 +/- 1.4%, respectively (P-1-2,P-3<0.05). The plasma membrane integrity of spermatozoa in groups 2 and 3 (48.4 +/- 2.9% and 45.5 +/- 3.9%, respectively) was higher than in Group 1 (33.3 +/- 2.1%, P < 0.05). After 24 h, 48 h and 72 h in vitro culture, the total motility and viability of spermatozoa in Group 1 was significantly lower than Group 2 and Group 3. The apoptosis rate in Group 3 (44.5 +/- 3.0%) and Group 2 (47.7 +/- 4.1%) were lower than in Group 1 (52.5 +/- 4.4%; P < 0.05). Delta Psi m rates in Group 3 and Group 2 were higher than in Group 1 (P < 0.05) with no statistical differences between this parameter in Group 2 and Group 3 (P > 0.1). In conclusion, supplementation of medium for aseptic capillary technology for cryoprotectant-free vitrification of human spermatozoa by permeable cryoprotectant does not improve the quality of spermatozoa after warming.
