Outline of Final Research Achievements

Experiments were designed to elucidate the mechanism of TLR mediated spermatogenesis by lactoferrin. We used mouse sperm as a material, co-cultured with bacterial cell component and lactoferrin, then examined cells induced to undergo apoptosis using immunohistological method, and analyzed the expression of genes related to apoptosis by biochemical method and examined. As a result, it was revealed that lactoferrin suppresses sperm apoptosis by bacteria and does not affect fertility and embryogenesis. From the above, it became clear that spermatogenesis and cell death caused by bacteria by lactoferrin lactoferricin were suppressed, and it was revealed that fertilization rate and implantation rate were improved.
