The Effects of Curcumin on Sperm Parameters and Nitric Oxide Production in Varicocelized Rats/Efectos de la Curcuma sobre los Parametros Espermaticos y Produccion de Oxido Nitrico en Ratas Varicocelizadas
One of the proposed mechanism by which varicocele induces its damage is excessive release of nitric oxide (NO) Several studies have shown the role of NO in poor sperm quality in infertile patients with varicocele.

| description | One of the proposed mechanism by which varicocele induces its damage is excessive release of nitric oxide (NO) Several studies have shown the role of NO in poor sperm quality in infertile patients with varicocele. Scientific studies have demonstrate the beneficial effects of curcumin on the sperm parameters. Curcumin as an atoxic antioxidant can reduce production of NO. The aim o this study was to determine the effect of curcumin on NO levels and investigate if curcumin can improve sperm parameters in varicocelize male rats. Thirty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (V1 and V2 (varicocele), T (treatment), Sh (sham) and C was control). In groups V1, V2, T and Sh, the left renal vein was partially ligated to induce varicocele. In groups V1 and V2, sperm parameter and NO level were evaluated 8 and 16 weeks respectively after varicocele induction. Groups T and Sh received 100 mg/kg curcumin am placebo respectively, daily for 8 weeks after 2 months of induced varicocele. Sperm parameters (count, motility, viability and morphology) epididymis and testis weight and also NO concentration were measured. Sperm parameters (count, motility and viability) in groups V1 V2 and Sh were significantly low in comparison with control and treatment groups. The level of NO was significantly increased in serum of rats in groups V1 and V2, whereas group T rat serum in which curcumin was administered, showed decreased NO levels. The value of the epididymis and testis weight had no significant changes (P< 0.05) in all groups. Administration of curcumin as a free radica scavenger, can decrease NO level and improve sperm parameters in varicocelized male rats. KEY WORD: Varicocele; Curcumin; Sperm parameters; Rat.

En los grupos V1, V2, T y Sh, la vena renal izquierda fue parcialmente ligada para inducir varicocele. En los grupos de V1 y V2, los parametros de semen y nivel de ON se evaluaron a las 8 y 16 semanas respectivamente, despues de la induccion de varicocele. Los grupos T y Sh recibieron diariamente 100 mg/kg de curcuma y placebo durante 8 semanas, despues de 2 meses de inducir el varicocele. Fueron medidos los parametros del semen (recuento, motilidad, viabilidad y morfologia espematica), peso del epididimo y testiculos, junto con la concentracion del ON. El recuento, motilidad y viabilidad de los espermatozoides en los grupos V1, V2 y Sh fueron significativamente mas bajos en comparacion con los grupos C y T. El nivel de ON se incremento significativamente en el suero de las ratas de los grupos V1 y V2, mientras que el suero del grupo T, en el que se administro curcuma, hubo una disminucion de los niveles de ON. El peso del epididimo y testiculos tuvieron cambios significativos (P [less than or equal to] 0,05) en todos los grupos. La administracion de curcuma como un eliminador de radicales libres, puede disminuir el nivel de ON y mejorar los parametros espermaticos en ratas macho varicocelizadas.
