Effect of reduced glutathione (GSH) on the sperm quality of verraco under subhumid tropic conditions

Keywords: GSH, preserved semen, boar

Abstract

In this work was evaluate the effect of reduced glutathione (GSH) on sperm quality of boars under tropic conditions. 40 ejaculates from 4 boars (10 replicates per boar) of commercial lines Yorkshire / Landrace and Pietrain / Duroc between 24 and 28 months of age, were collected at 7 day intervals by the gloved hand technique.The ejaculate was diluted 1:10 with 2000 x106 (viable sperm), L-Reduced Glutathione (GSH, Sigma-Aldrich ®) added to the diluent half conservation (MIII ®). Three groups were formed, control group without GSH (0GSH) and two treatments with GSH concentrations 1 mM (1GSH) and 2 mM (2GSH), total mobility, integrity of the plasma membrane, osmotic resistance and acrosomal integrity initial and in the semen conserved at 17º C was evaluated at 0, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h. The plasma membrane integrity of boar sperm supplemented with 2GSH was 88.0% and 1GSH of 87.3%, different with respect 0GSH (P <0.05). In total mobility, in 2GSH and 1GSH was 58.9% and 56.9%, respectively, showing differences (P <0.05) with respect to the 0GSH (52.0%). During the conservation period from 72 and to 96 h of storage, total mobility showed a 14% decrease for 0GSH, while that in IGSH nad 2GSH only a decrease of 11 and 6% respectively, was observed. Plasma membrane integrity at 96 h was 87.52%, 85.40% and 80.65% for 2GSH, 1GSH and 0GSH, respectively (P<0.05). The variables osmotic tolerance and acrosomal integrity not show significant differences (P> 0.05) in between treatments during the time of conservation. The supplementation with 2 mM of GSH to the dilution medium improvement the quality of spermatozoa of boars maintained in tropical conditions conserved at 17° C
