Abstract

Overview

The research addresses the significant health risks associated with the prevalent use of EMF-emitting devices, focusing on male fertility. It evaluates spermine's protective role against EMF-induced reproductive harms.

Findings

• Exposure to EMF results in decreased sperm count, viability, and motility, increased sperm deformities, and hormonal imbalances.
• Significant decreases were observed in testosterone levels and increases in follicle-stimulating hormone and estradiol concentrations.
• The study reports EMF-induced oxidative, inflammatory, apoptotic, and DNA damage in rat testes. Spermine was found to mitigate these adverse effects significantly.

Conclusion

Spermine exhibits potent protective effects against EMF-induced disruptions in spermatogenesis and steroidogenesis, displaying antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic properties.
