摘要
目的:观察宁泌泰胶囊对慢性前列腺炎(CP)不育患者精液参数的影响,并探讨其机制:方法:研究共纳入43名确诊为慢性前列腺炎的患者,他们服用宁泌泰胶囊(每次4粒),疗程为6周。随后,对治疗前后精浆中的精子浓度、前向运动能力、总运动能力、氧化和抗氧化指标以及白细胞介素-8(IL-8)浓度等参数进行评估:与治疗前相比,精液的前向运动能力和总运动能力显著增加(37.15% ± 18.77% vs. 45.44% ± 19.08%,P < 0.05;42.56% ± 21.22% vs. 51.64% ± 19.48%,P < 0.05)。超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)和总抗氧化能力(T-AOC)的表达在治疗后也显著增加(11.36 μmol/L ± 3.28 μmol/L vs. 12.79 μmol/L ± 2.87 μmol/L,P < 0.05;9.34 U U/mL ± 3.22 U/mL vs. 11.21 U U/mL ± 4.87 U/mL,P < 0.05)。此外,治疗后丙二醛(MDA)和IL-8的表达也显著下降(41.06 μmol/L ± 24.39 μmol/L vs. 32.17 μmol/L ± 15.04 μmol/L,P < 0.05;79.69 ng/L ± 26.24 ng/L vs. 61.35 ng/L ± 23.41 ng/L,P < 0.05)。治疗后精子浓度和精子DNA碎片指数无明显差异(P > 0.05):结论:宁神胶囊能增强精液的抗氧化能力,下调精液中细胞因子的表达,从而改善CP不育患者的精液指标。
Ningmitai capsule improves the semen quality of male infertile with chronic prostatitis by antioxidant and anti-inflammatory
Aim: To observe the effects of Ningmitai capsule on semen parameters of infertile patients with chronic prostatitis (CP) and explore the mechanisms.
Methods: A total of 43 patients diagnosed with CP were included in the study and administered Ningmitai capsules (4 capsules per dose) for a duration of 6 weeks. Subsequently, assessments were conducted on parameters including sperm concentration, forward progressive motility, total motility, oxidative and anti-oxidative indicators, as well as the concentration of interleukin-8 (IL-8) in seminal plasma before and after the treatment period.
Results: Compared to pre-treatment, forward progressive motility and total motility of the semen increased significantly (37.15% ± 18.77% vs. 45.44% ± 19.08%, P < 0.05 and 42.56% ± 21.22% vs. 51.64% ± 19.48%, P < 0.05). And the expression of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) increased significantly after treatment as well (11.36 μmol/L ± 3.28 μmol/L vs. 12.79 μmol/L ± 2.87 μmol/L, P < 0.05 and 9.34 U/mL ± 3.22 U/mL vs. 11.21 U/mL ± 4.87 U/mL, P < 0.05). In addition, the expression of malondialdehyde (MDA) and IL-8 decreased significantly after treatment (41.06 μmol/L ± 24.39 μmol/L vs. 32.17 μmol/L ± 15.04 μmol/L, P < 0.05 and 79.69 ng/L ± 26.24 ng/L vs. 61.35 ng/L ± 23.41 ng/L, P < 0.05). No significant difference in sperm concentration and sperm DNA fragmentation index was observed after the treatment (P > 0.05).
Conclusions: Ningmitai capsule can enhance the antioxidant capacity and down-regulate the expression of cytokines in the semen, thereby improving the semen parameters of infertile patients with CP.
