Pharmacological Activity of Honeybush (Cyclopia intermedia) in Boar Spermatozoa during Semen Storage and under Oxidative Stress

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In recent decades, an increasing number of ethnopharmacological studies have been dedicated to medicinal plants from South African fynbos. Among these plants, honeybush (Cyclopia spp.) has become a popular tea, mainly due to its healthy properties and caffeine-free status. The antioxidant, antimutagenic, and antimicrobial properties of this plant have been reported in several cell types, but its effects on reproductive function are still unknown. Here, we assessed the effects of honeybush (Cyclopia intermedia) on boar sperm parameters under induced oxidative stress (Fe2+/ascorbate) and during five days of semen storage at 17 C without oxidative stress. In both experiments, four concentrations (200, 50, 12,5, and 3,125 ug/mL) of fermented honeybush were tested. Our results show that honeybush enhances sperm parameters, and no toxic effects were observed at any of the tested extract concentrations. Interestingly, honeybush (12,5 ug/mL) improved the sperm motility and kinetic parameters, preserved the p
